There’s a clip on youtube of Jackson winning a fencing match against European fencer Sandro Bazadze, the guy who won againt Korea’s number 1 fencer in the Olympics last year. If Jackson pursue fencing and no accidents happens, I think he would’ve had a pretty good fencing career representing his country just like his parents, and would be too busy to be a trainee in JYP😭 He’ll be training with the national team for world championships and doing advertisements in Hong Kong.

still can’t believe he decided to take huge leap of faith. before kpop, his future was secured in pretty much all aspects; he was uprising athlete, was set to be on Olympics, got Stanford scholarship, but he threw them all away for his dreams and I’m glad he did because he became one of successful artists and businessmen and a member from one of top groups + GOT7 wouldn’t be the same without him
