I'm not a huge 2pm fan but my heart bleeds for this poor boy and what he has to go through. Truly, it is sad to see him live Korea and his career with 2pm.I think what he said on his myspace some several years back was dumb but what the netizens have done to him was very cruel. I hope he finds some peace and will return to prove to the netizens they couldn't hold him down and take his pride.

i think jaebum was fired...

i mean think about it...

1. JYP didnt do sh*t.. they didnt try stopping him or anything.
2. he "quit" so fast. in a matter of a couple days after the myspace comments rose up
3. 2PM got bashed like crazy during those days. 2PM is JYP's baby right now. they are sooo popular. if 2PM gets bashed, so does JYP.
4. wooyoung posted up something to SUPPORT jaebum. thats shows so much for jay and he must have known about it. why would anyone quit after something like that?
5. the way jaebum talks in english and the way he looks, i am 99.9 % sure he had a hard past. i know someone EXACTLY like him. jaebum is freaking strong as hell. HE WOULD NOT QUIT BECAUSE OF THIS. him quitting just pretty much proves to everyone that hes weak. jaebum is smarter than that. he would only want to show them that he's changed.

so think about this for a little.. makes sense right? jaebum wouldnt leave unless he was FORCED to.
sad, i know. but this is the only thing that makes sense to me right now..

~azndebs~

you got a point. and i agree with you.
so does that mean that Jay is never coming back?

however on one of the news that I read...it say that jay post a good-bye letter on 2pm website and brook a flight right after that and leave instandly...before he post that letter, nobody knows that he was planning on leaving...JYP wasn't gonna replace him or fired him...they didn't even know he was leaving...they found out afterward and that's when they confirm that he's officially out...it's sad...but I believe he is strong and he'll be able to move on and continue...or maybe he just need some time to calm down and decide on his future...

I still don't know how I feel about supporting 2PM yet...without Jay. I'm waiting for JYP to make his official statement on the matter on Friday. IF he says the wrong thing, I will refuse to support JYPE...he better say he wants to bring Jay back after the whole situation is settled...stupid people need to be punished for destroying Jay's career...I'm still so pissed off right now, I'm in that anger stage of grief...I swear, I feel like someone I love, died...is that weird? I feel sad listening to their songs, and I pay much more attention to Jay's voice...

I want to support 2PM, because I love the guys, but I feel that JYP didn't even defend or stand up for Jay...he just let him go...I feel like he cared more about his company than the artists in it...but that's just how I feel, I don't know the truth about how JYP feels. He chose Jay as his leader, he should've never given him those options, it was like a slap in the face...I would've left too...I mean, your boss asks you to step down from your position, or leave, so he's basically saying he cares more about what those anti-netizens think than about his own artist...

I agree with all of you...I just, cannot sleep last night, I was so freakin stressed...but tears wouldnt come out...I just miss him...I do hope that he'll return...this isnt goodbye is it????
pls come back...

hmm..well perhaps this could be Jay's soft spot- bringing others down with him, hence he left

i dont think jyp would fire him over what actually is a very small matter, not after he'd gone thru so much to bring jay to where he is today..

but thats just my opinion..who knows which is true? the most important thing now is that he does what he thinks is best for himself..if he comes back just because fans beg him to he might become a changed person (and not in a good way!)

although i really do hope sosososososossososo much that he'd come back..

..
..
..
but how is he gna face his family now? the people dearest to him..i think what hurts him now is that he (might) have disappointed them..(other than missing th rest of 2PM and all that)

It's like someone died, it's so sad

JYP's official statement regarding Jay

He wrote:

I have received much shock from what Jaebum wrote 4 years ago to his friend. Could it have been another celebrity, I myself would have felt much anger, resentment, and abandonment at his words. But I have known Jaebum for so long that those words are not surprising to me.

I already knew Jaebum was that kind of child.

When Jaebum first came to Korea 4 years ago, he was very rebellious and out of line. He laughed at Korea and belittled his fellow trainees, even going so far as to see me as ‘easy.’ I believe he thought that being a Korean celebrity was something to laugh at. He was a boy that wanted to b-boy in the streets. He fought with company employees, his dance instructors, and made threatening statements.

At times, he even said that he did not like JYP Ent., and would name another rival company, wishing to be sent there instead.

But what made us surprised even more was that when asked whether he had the guts to succeed, he said “We could succeed if we don’t receive JYP’s music.”

At this point, employees wondered why we were keeping such a rebellious boy.

This is why his words 4 years ago are not surprising.

Then why would we keep such a kid?

I love rebellious children. Rather than children that are nice up front but are calculating and evil behind my back, I love children that are rebellious up to my face. I loved the fact that he showed his emotions straight up. It gave me hope. Who would have the guts to utter such words to my face? To say that his failure depended on my bad music? I thought that it was funny.

I believed that rebellious children had too much energy, just no place to express that energy. Or they never met someone that would trust them enough to show them the correct path. I wanted to help this person go on stage and feel the energy and joy. As long as I could instill within him trust and love.

To Jaebum, there are only two types of people. His family, and those that are not his family. He loves his family more than I could ever know. The reason he talks about money in interviews is not to buy nice clothes, it is to pay back his family, who always works hard for him. That’s why he ran the path of becoming a singer.

He was rebellious, but he excelled in training.

I saw this and thought, if only I could make him think of my company, his fellow trainees, this company as his family. if only.

So one day, I told him “Jaebum, someone is not a family only because they share the same blood. Please open your heart to them first. Then others can be your family too.”

Through these efforts, he began to change.. He began to hug his fellow trainees, start conversations with company employees, and began enjoying his time on the stage.

He finally began to express his energy on stage and began to shine through singing and dancing.

I chose him as the team’s leader. The rest of the 6 really believed in him and followed his lead.

He always trained with them and always thought of his younger members before him..

After his debut, he felt a change in his heart at the news reporters and attentions that showed him in a positive light and began showing affection.

He was touched at by the hearts of his fans.

Good people, good friends, good fans… good music.. through all this, he began to change.

But as things began to go up, like a sad movie scene, his entry from 4 years ago was released.

He was so sorry. To his 2PM brothers, to me, to his company employees, to his fans.. and to nobody more than to his Koreans.

He thought to himself that if he stayed any longer, his brothers would only get more hurt. He told me he did not have the confidence to get up on stage.

I knew what he was saying too well to hold him back.

If I were him, I would have made the same decision.

And so he left.

His last email to me said “I’VE BEEN A LITTLE PUNK IN THE PAST. I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE. IT MADE ME A MUCH BETTER MUCH STRONGER PERSON AND I’M THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME. REAL TALK.”

My heart was ripping. It hurt. But knowing what Koreans would feel at his words, an immense sense of betrayal, I could not say anything.

But what I can do for him is to tell everyone that he showed on TV is not fake. He might have been rebellious but never fake. He never hid his true emotions. He was always up front, straight up… and that is something that can never change.

I know the public and the fans and I am listening to your opinions. But the most important thing is that Jaebum is not 2PM’s Park Jaebum but a child, a teenager Jaebum.

I genuinely wish for you all to hold his decision true.

I apologize once more.

JYP

********************************************************************************


Okay, now I can figure out what to do...I'm still kind of sad, but at least I know JYP's side to it, so I'm no longer mad at him. I knew he had to have known and trusted Jay in order to put him as the leader of 2PM, I just need confirmation. If anyone knows Jay, it's gotta be him, they've been working together for as long as Jay was in Korea. At least I know how sad he was that Jay left, and that he knew Jay well enough to not put up a fight, but wanting him to stay.

Some fans have decided to boycott JYP and 2PM until Jay returns, and I admit, I really did consider this...out of anger, sadness, the shock...but now I know that doing that won't help at all. It's as bad as those anti-netizens posting those comments about Jay and taking what he said out of proportion.

WE CAN'T LET THEM WIN!!!!!

We need to be behind 2PM more than ever, letting those stupid people know that no matter what our idols do, we will still love them, because they are human beings, not people born to be perfectly entertaining, with no kind of flaws whatsoever. I know, a lot of people said that Jay would want us to support his group members. We can't let the rest of the group suffer, they're already suffering enough by losing their leader, their hyung...their friend, and brother. We as HOTTEST fans need to be there to support them, to show our love and loyalty for them.

liney @ Asian Fanatics suggested this, and I wholeheartedly agree with her:

As fans:

Even if they go ahead with the comeback with just 6 of them:

1. Continue chanting the cheers as usual beginning with Park Jaebum's name.

2. Korean fans can emphasize the SEVEN members of 2pm by listing all their names on the placards/banners during the performances.

3. Let JYP know that the fans r ready to accept and embrace Jay when he's ready...right into the arms of 2pm and the Hottest...

4. Suggest these to 2pm-:

- The new leader should refrain from identifying himself as the leader during the greetings or he could label himself as 'asst leader" or "captain". The title leader rightfully belong to Jay.

- Leave a gap in the middle when thanking the fans after performances. It's to signal to Jay that that will forever be his place. It's up to him to decide when he'll reclaim that place and complete the formation.

- Support and encourage Jay.

So...what do u say about these? We should do something concrete to show that Jay will always be part of 2pm even as time passes by..


That sounds like a great idea, doesn't it? Makes me wish I thought of it myself...LOL. But it's all the same, we should let them know that Jay will always be a part of 2PM, whether he is physically there or not, and we know Jay will be following up on the progress of his group members, so he'll be able to see or hear that the fans haven't and won't forget about him.

It is sad that this happened, and I feel so bad for him, but I think we have to move on strongly, for 2PM, all 7 of them. It's not like Jay is gone, he's still here, just not a part of the group, but he's physically here, thank God for that. I'm glad that stupid and cruel petition didn't discourage him enough to listen to it. I'm glad the only thing he chose to do was to leave the group and go back home, to not burden the rest of his group, and to go and be the kind of man he wants to be without anyone giving him any slack for it.

Once a HOTTEST, always a HOTTEST!!! That will never change, even if it's down to just one member...

---------------------------------
Hottests, we all know the devastating situation that has been going on with Jaebeom and many of you must be wondering if 2PM's performance from the Incheon Korean Wave Festival on 5th September will still be airing this week. Well you are not alone.

There will be no Music Core this Saturday, 12th September as MBC will be airing the Incheon Korean Wave Festival in it's place. Many of the fans have been wondering if they were going to air Jaebeom's performance with 2PM after all that has happened.

Rest assured as MBC has revealed their decision today and that 2PM's performance will air as it is tomorrow afternoon, so watch out for that.
---------------------------------
SHINee's ONEW supports jaebum
More and more stars are starting to support 2PM's fallen leader Jaebeom. On UFOTown, SHINee's Onew responded to a question by a fan, showing support for Jaebeom.

The question was:

Oppa... What about Jaebeom oppa? ㅠㅠ This is getting ridiculous ㅠㅠ

Onew responded with:

He'll definitely be back. Himnae~! 2PM consists of 7 people ^^!

It's good to see more people supporting Jaebeom, when the dust is all settled and the heat dies down a bit, I hope that he can return to Korea. Jaebeom should be forgiven, it seems most people have as he seems to have garnered more supporters than detractors. Also, what he said was in the past, so it should stay there. I liked this quote by Gandhi:

"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."



Hopefully, Jaebeom stays strong as well,

We as a group of HOTTESTS will not let Jaebeom go as easily as JYP did. If HOTTESTS are willing to boycott and protest, then I say we do so. I want us to at least show Jaebeom that we still care dearly for him even if that means he decides to really not come back.

I do want Jay to come back to 2PM but I respect his decision now. I will always support Jay no matter what he does. Jay will always be apart of 2PM whether he is there or not.

I have to agree with what So shared about Liney’s suggestions.
Especially no. 3 about how fans are ready to accept and embrace Jay when he is ready. Jay, I will always wait for you!

I know that everyone wants Jay to come back but please think about how he is feeling right now. If he had stayed with 2PM how do you think he will feel? He wouldn’t be happy because of all that is happening. There would still be an ongoing battle between the antis and Hottest. How long until before the whole thing goes away? Even after he left though he is still being talked about and fans are trying their hardest to get Jay back. I understand their efforts because I want Jay back too but we should accept Jay when he is ready to come back.

Jaebeom’s Sorry Bow at Incheon
It was a bittersweet moment for Hottests to watch Jaebeom's final (?) performance with 2PM during last weekend's Incheon Korean Wave Music Awards on MBC Music Core. Sweet, because the members of 2PM--excluding Nichkhun--lit the stage on fire with a joint performance of their hit songs "Again and Again" and "Hate You," but bitter, because it may have potentially been Jaebeom's last.

In minute details, a guilt-ridden Jaebeom expresses his sincere apologies regarding the Myspace controversy with his 90-degree bow to the audience.

By now, Jaebeom has apologized more than the entire chorus of Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry" combined. It's definitely unfortunate that he has resorted to resigning from 2PM and returning to America, but here's to hoping he "Might Come Back."


i hope he come back soon

SPANISH MEETING SUPPORTING JAEBEOM (2PM)

As we all know... Jaebeom of 2pm quits for some problems with Antis because of some comments that he made 4 years before. But after that he apoligized for what he did before.

But most of the antis signed a petition on Agora (one of a Daum's portal sites) and over 3,000 people have commented "Go back to America", "I'm disgusted by you", etc...
Finally, JaeBeom decided to quits on 2pm's grup and go back to America.

That's why lot of fans all over the world made some meeting or reunion to support Jaebeom. Here is the spanish reunion:

I'm not very fan of 2pm but i think everyone have another chance. If Jaebeom made that mistake before I really think that he doesn't really mean it.

^Wow, that is so amazing that those around the world are supporting Jay! I know that so many others in different places are also supporting him as well. If only Jay can see that video and see how much he is missed all around the world.
Jay had so much influence on everyone and it is sad to see that he has left.

I was so touched by this, but it made me cry too...I feel even worse for Jay


JaeBum on going back to Korea, “Yes, but I’m not sure”

A Korean news site ISPlus ran an article recently on a family friend of 2PM JaeBum.

This family friend, Mr Kim recently met with JaeBum’s family for a family dinner and comforted JaeBum. He asked JaeBum if he wants to go back to Korea and JaeBum’s answer was, “Yes, but I’m not sure”

I am a parent of someone that is close to Jaebum’s age. Watching what has been happening these past few days, I have built up some confidence to say a few words.

I have been business partners with Jaebum’s dad in Seattle and am a Korean-America who has been living here for 30 years. I have known Jaybum since he was a little kid and have watched him grow throughout the years. Also my kids have been going to school with him since pre-school and so they are quite close. Thus, I think I know a lot about Jaebum’s family.

Jaebum’s house in Seattle is near a beach called Edmonds and is in a prospective middle-class neighborhood. This house has been built for 40 years, but Jaebum has lived here ever since he was born for over 20 years.

In the parking lot aren’t BMW’s and Lexus’s, but rather there are cars that are about 5-10 years old. Just recently they just leased a car from Hyundai Dealershop for an Elantra, but after Jaebum’s situation, they had to return it.

In their house is a 37 inch Sony TV that has been there for 10 years. All the computers in their house are very old and about to break, and the best computer they have is a notebook that a fan had bought for Jaebum.

The reason i am telling you all this is because I wanted to show you how Jaebum’s family life style is not fake nor ostentatious, but rather humble and normal for a middle-class family.

After Jaebum came back from Korea, about 2 days later Jaebum’s dad told Jaebum that he should study music and went out and sweating from the weight of the it, bought and brought into the house a 15 year old electric Yamaha piano that was $300 just for Jaebum.

Without any complaint, Jaebum took and practiced with that piano,a nd thinking of how I bought my son a Roland piano for $5000 made me so embarrassed.

On Friday night Jaebum’s dad and I got together to drink some beer and talk until 3AM, and all of a sudden tears dropped from his eyes and he began to share. He felt so bad for Jaebum.

For the past 5 years, no one knows how much Jaebum suffered from frustration and hard work, and so many times when he so much wanted to go back to Seattle, he always fixed his mindset and practiced for long hours, but now right as he gained so much popularity, he escaped to Seattle in just 4 days, and that really breaks my heart.

Coming home from Korea, for those long hours on the plane, how much did he have to suffer and think in his mind?

In the beginning of August, I remember when Jaebum came to Seattle for a quick visit. Because Jaebum’s immature younger brother was not listening to him, I remember what Jaebum said to him.

“I want to go out and meet my friends like you and go out and have fun like you but do you know why I am going through all of this and working hard? It’s because of you and our parents! Why can’t you be more thoughtful of what you do!”

In the car I asked my daughter who is the same age as Jaebum “Yuri! What does ‘Korea is gay’ mean?” “It means that Korea is stupid or annoying, we say it when we’re tired or annoyed”.

Even when my daughter and I fought when she went through her teenage years, she used the word ‘hate’ a lot. “Dad i hate you!” Just because she said that would i have to kick her out of the house?

During that time, I believe that Jaebum did not understand the Korean culture, and had a hard time adjusting, while the people who translated what Jaebum said on his Myspace translated in a very wrong way because they don’t know that that is just how teenagers speak in America.

I don’t understand how what he wrote as a teenager has anything to do with betraying Korea in any way.

How can someone who really hated Korea work so hard for their family so they can live better lives?

Us Korean-American’s do not see America as a place just for money. We think of America as a new start where we have more opportunities, while our hearts are still with Korea and we want Korea to thrive.

During the 2002 World Cup instead of watching it at home my friends and I went to a sports bar and watched it in order to spread interest in Korea and soccer. When Korea put in a goal we all screamed for joy and the American people who had no interest in Korean soccer seemed interested.

Even during the WBC, instead of watching the Major League we urged the Americans to watch Korea’s games and those people who have Nokia phones and not LG or Samsung, we went and talked to them on why they wouldn’t use a good Korean phone.

Don’t these little things show how much pride we have for Korea? Even more than the pride of those overseas, we feel like we have a lot of pride in our country. Because of what a teenager wrote 4 years ago, i don’t think that it was right to accuse and point fingers at Jaebum when he didn’t mean anything like that, and cause him to be kicked out of Korea. That is not called having pride in our country.

Everyone, I urge you all to take a step back and think of what has happened in the past week, and also i urge you to have a big heart and embrace our young Korean-American who is trying so hard to live out his life and give him another chance.

I am not asking for you to put out a red carpet for him, but all I ask is for you to help Jaebum not feel embarrassed or guilty anymore, and instead help him think more comfortably and have a warm heart for him.

During these past few days when the netizens said biting remarks about Jaebum, I want to say thank you to Boom for standing up for him and being brave. Boom still calls Jaebum everyday to check up on how he is doing.

Right now, Jaebum’s parents are in panic mode, and do not pick up the phone if it not someone they know.

Jaebum visited his old breakdancing studio when a black kid recognized him and put a camera up to his face and so he had to hurry up and just go home.

He hasn’t even been able to go to the church he went to all his life because he’s still embarrassed and guilty and disappointed in himself, so he hasn’t been going out anywhere and just been staying home.
Seeing all of this, i feel so bad for him and am heart broken.

Last saturday, my family and Jaebum’s family went to a friend’s Chinese restaurant in order to brighten everyone’s mood. Although he wasn’t jumping for joy, being his first dinner outside since he came to Seattle, we had a good time and Jaebum’s mood got a little better and more comfortable.



I asked him “Jaebum, do you wanna go back to Korea?”

“yes..but i’m not sure.”

After much drama surrounding leader Jaebeom leaving 2PM, JYP has finally released an official statement regarding 2PM's future activities.

Unfortunately, 2PM will continue activities as 6-members, as JYP is stating that Jaebeom does not want to return.

Whether Jaebeom not wanting to return is the truth or not, we have yet to hear. But as of now, 2PM will be 6 members.

JYP finally made a statement on JYPE homepage :
"I talked to JYPE staffs, 2PM members, and Jaebeom about our future plans. First of all, although many people have sent their encouraging words to Jaebeom, he hasn’t changed his mind; thinking he made a huge mistake. He said that he is still very sorry and too ashamed to be on the stage. He also told me that since other 2PM members have worked so hard, they should not be affected by this in any negative ways. That’s why he left 2PM so quickly.

I think the same way as Jaebeom. The reason why I didn't stop him from leaving is because I thought whether Jay being in 2PM or not now won’t be that big deal when you look at his life as a whole. Some think 4 years of his hard working has been destroyed, but his skills that were built up in 4 years are still remained in his body.

If Jaebeom receives a chance to grow up and become more mature by this incident, he will be able to fly even further later on. As criticism against Jay was way too harsh, requesting to revoke Jay's resignation is asking for too much as well. It’s my role to respect his opinion wanting to have his time alone apart from the stage, and help him later when he says he wants to be on the stage again.

I think you should give him supports by then. Again, I apologize for not being able to manage and protect him well. We'll try our best to not make this happen again

Thank you again,
2PM will continue their schedule with 6 members as it was planned
JYP"

I don't know how they got international fans to agree to this, but I haven't agreed to anything yet. I'm so torn about this, I have no idea what to do next. Okay, I did start liking 2PM for just one person, but I grew to love and adore them all...Jay wasn't my top favorite, but I respected and admired him for being the leader of the group.

I have been incredibly sad over his leave, but it's understandable, and I can understand that maybe he thinks he isn't strong enough to deal with the pressure, so he doesn't want to drag the rest of his brothers down. I know Jay cares for and loves those 6 boys very much, he was their leader, their hyung, how could he not? I feel we need to respect his decision to leave, and hope that he will be able to do what he loves again, some day...but at the same time, support his decision. I feel that his decision to leave was both personal and professional, and when your professional life starts to step into your personal life, you do have to take a step back to reevaluate the situation, to collect yourself.

This situation should've never happened, but it did, and now we just need to move forward, for Jay and 2PM's sake. I love Wooyung, Junho, Nichkhun, Taec, Chansung, and even Junsu, and I can't bare to see them move forward without my support. I feel that JYP did all he could in regards to Jay, because when it comes down to it, it was Jay's decision to leave, and he respected that, and I respect him for it. At least I know he loves and feels for Jay, but there wasn't anything he could do to make him feel confident in performing. It wasn't Jay's fault, because to me, HE DID NOTHING WRONG. There was nothing he needed to apologize for, it's not like he's Kanye West, okay? I love those 2PM boys, and they are very hardworking, they've already lost a member, they shouldn't have to lose their fan base as well...

HOTTESTS: I know you mean well, but if you are a true fan, you will support them in whatever decision each guy makes when it comes to 2PM. It's their lives, and we have to respect the decision, because they're doing what's best for them. What's best for Jay is to get away from a negative country and be with his family, to rebuild himself, to be stronger...What's best for 2PM is to move on, because Jay's career isn't the only career at stake here, there are 6 others lives involved, and the reason Jay left was so his group, his brothers, could move forward, so we can't hold them back. I think Jay would appreciate that we still have him in our hearts, and that we will always see him as 2PM's leader, no matter what. We should appreciate JYP for letting 2PM move on with just 6 members, because it would literally be a slap in the face if he replaced Jay just like that. We should be there for the rest of the guys, we should support and love them, as always. Don't let them lose us too!!!

7-1=0
JAY PLS COME BACK TO 2PM
PLS~~~

There's been so many new things unfolding, comments from Jay himself, his friends, JYP, even the 2PM boys have spoken, but it's hard to know who really is telling the truth and who is really speaking for themselves. A lot of fans don't know whether to believe comments left by Jay or Wooyung on their fan cafes, thinking it is the company's ploy to get fans to stop boycotting 2PM. I personally don't know what to believe anymore, I believe in what JYP said about Jay, I believe Jay left because it is what's best for him and that he needs the support from his family and friends, I believe he left because he had no choice (whether being pressured to leave, or leaving on his own accord), I believe 2PM is supporting Jay even though he left, and I believe in 2PM even though Jay is no longer a part of it.

You can read all the latest updates, and figure out for yourself which things you want to believe, I will always be posting my opinion on the matter because these boys are very dear to me, I will always support them no matter what happens, because I believe in them as a group, and as individuals. I will always hope and wish that Jay return's to be 2PM's rightful leader, but my thoughts are just that, hopes and wishes.

I don't want to do anything to hurt the rest of the members, because I love them, and they are suffering enough without Jay. This situation could've been avoided, but it happened, and everyone just needs to move forward. I choose to support all 7 members of 2PM, not JYP, not JYPE, not even 2AM...because 2PM were the first, and Korean artist that I will ever love.

I don't believe in the Korean music industry, allowing haters to control the lives of their idols...it is not a music industry, because they don't care about the music at all. They care about who they can take to the top, or tear down. Music is not about what someone said or did in their past, music is just that. You're supposed to be entertained, inspired by their hardwork, their talents, their music...

You're free to love or hate whoever you want, but it's when those emotions are acted upon that makes it a problem. If you love an artist, support them, if you hate an artist, don't support them. I mean, I have artists I dislike, but never could I be so cruel as to try to tear them down emotionally, or even ruin their career. I mean, look at the VMA's with Taylor Swift, I'm not a fan of hers at all, but she didn't deserve to be rudely interrupted by Kanye West when she was so excited about her award.

You're supposed to act on love, not hate. You're supposed to express love and suppress hate.

Do what you want, believe what you want...I will always have an opinion on this matter, and I will always express it. I may not be sure about how I feel about the situation or about the things that went down, but what I know for sure is that:

I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT PARK JAEBEOM, JANG WOOYUNG, NICKHUN HORVEJEKUL, LEE JUNHO, OK TAEKYEON, HWANG CHANSUNG, AND KIM JUNSU!!!!

I really believe that this has gotten completely out of hand! The antis that are yelling about Jae committing suicide should be the ones throwing themselves off tall bridges! Excuse the way I'm speaking, but stuff like that bugs me...those antis are being overly righteous, acting like they are perfect humans and don't make serious mistakes. They are the ones that disgust me.

I haven't been a 2pm fan for very long at all, but I really hope Jae comes back. The group will NOT be the same without him. I want to know if the other members are supporting him...have they released any statements? Or are they too afraid of backlash from psychotic teenage girls with no lives? (<---I'm not criticizing them...just wondering if they've said anything.)

As for what Jae said on his Myspace all those years ago...was it really THAT bad? I haven't seen what he wrote. If anyone knows then please tell me or provide a link...I want to judge for myself.

2PM member JaeBum’s stage performing costume has fetched a high price of 6.1 million KRW at a star charity sales, gaining the attention of many netizens.

omg........

really dun know what to say ....

after i go through, i think 2PM is nothing without PARK JAE BOM!!!

but in reality what else i could do only to support him in whatever he do..
i think, the way JAY act like he miss his family sooooooooooo much..

if i was in his foot i'll do the same thing
regardless the issue being FORCED to quit or others..java script:add_smilie




for JYP Ent., if i found that the fact of PJB being forced to QUIT..i curse u rather die..
cos PJB should not get through with this...it's toooo harsh..

FOR MY BELOVED PARK JAE BOM...
==always be happy & ur life must GO ON==

[/b][/b]

i hope Jay oppa comes back soon D: what with 2pm's new album being released soon and all those teaser videos on youtube..his contract with jyp still has like another 5 years or something and its not been cancelled with him so he's coming back soon...just that no one knows when ><"

I'm using my phone so I can't give you the link, but try the kbites blog. The only thing he said to his friend because of being lonely, homesick, and misunderstood was, "Koreans are gay" and "I hate Korea". But being an American myself, it's not that big of a deal. I say that about America, but it doesn't mean I actually mean it. I swear, some people have nothing better to do.

OMGAWD!!! what i've been waiting to hear since Jay oppa left!!!

On the upcoming episode of MBC's Golden Fishery set to air on the 11th, JYP carefully brought up Jaebeom and hinted about his return to 2PM.

JYP Entertainment stated:

"We slightly touched upon Jaebeom's possible return, JYP's statement can be considered another step in that direction. But it is not set in stone. However, this should at least answer fans' confusion and clear up the situation a bit."

Although the details of the full episode have not been revealed yet, it is hinting at the fact that JYP is actively pursuing and anticipating Jaebeom's return. This is also the first time that JYP has spoken on this issue. The full episode will air on the 11th and allkpop will provide full coverage on the details. Stay tuned.

First, it was announced that 2PM would be making a comeback on SBS Inkigayo. Then it was announced that 2PM would come back on a closer date, on KBS Music Bank. To make fans happier, it looks like the group will be having their comeback stage even sooner on Mnet's Oh~ Good Concert on November 12th.

The group will be performing their hit song "I Hate You" along with "Heartbeat" from their new album, 1:59 PM.

Fans are awaiting this first comeback stage, mainly because of the absence of Jaebeom (who might also be coming back).

The concert will be held at 7PM - 10PM KST at Jamsil Stadium, and other artists set to perform are Park Hyo Shin, Wheesung, Kim Tae Woo, 4minute, Seeya, Ivy, BEAST, MBLAQ and many other popular artists.

Jae Beom, Go bak to korea and perform on stage where you belongg.

2pm's ex-member, Park Jaebeom's, current status at Dankook University

As if it weren’t enough, KHottests, 2PM’s Korean fanbase, have done it again! These dedicated fans have dug up information regarding the Leadja’s enrollment in Dankook University, which he had previously attended.

On the 19th, a curious KHottest called up the Business Administration Office of Dankook University to see if s/he could get some clarification on Jaebeom’s enrollment within the school. The following conversation is what happened over the phone after a man answered the call.

KHottest: I’m calling to ask you one thing…

Man: Yes…

KHottest: I know that 2PM’s Park Jaebeom is a student of this school but is he on temporary absence or did he withdraw from the school?

Man: …(Pause. He murmurs to himself.) Why do you ask?

KHottest: Ah, I was just wondering how he dealt with his school issues before leaving.

Man: It doesn’t seem like he submitted any papers requesting a leave…(Keeps murmuring to himself)

KHottest: He didn’t submit any documents then? From my knowledge, if you don’t submit any documents requesting a leave, then your name gets removed from the school’s registrar…

Man: He did not send any papers of that sort.

KHottest: Then is he currently not enrolled in the school?

Man: Yes…(All the while murmuring)

The KHottest further mentions that although Jaebeom is currently not enrolled, he can return to the school after he pays for his tuition.

2PM, to put on special stage for JaeBom at MAMA

On the 21st at the Mnet Asia Music Awards (MAMA), 2PM will put on a special performance for former leader Jay Park (Jaebeom)!

Many eyes and excitement have been surrounding the group in regards to whether or not Jaebeom will attend or make his comeback with 2PM. Many fans have had their hopes up but his return at MAMA seems unrealistic when it was said, "A special performance has been prepared and it's nearly finished. Since we've been preparing this special event, it seems many rumors have been circulating."

With the recent release of their first full album 01:59PM, the group has expressed their sorrow and feeling of loss for the former leader. They've expressed their gratitude and even admitted that they are forever a 7 member group. They even left the center in their promotional photo empty to signify that no one could ever replace their leader.


cr: allkpop http://www.allkpop.com/index.php/full_stor...aebeom_at_mama/

After a lot of speculations whether 2PM's JaeBum will be or will not be performing at MAMA with his ex co-members, now is the time to settle down.

2PM was 7 members during their performance on Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) on 21st November.

They performed their hits ‘Heartbeat’ and ‘Again & Again’, after Ivy and Nich Khun’s joint stage. And the highlight of the performance was Park Jin Young who did the concept of a concert conductor.

And Park JaeBum, who have left the group, was left an empty spot during the group’s performance. During the group’s ‘Again & Again’ performance, JaeBum’s empty spot was light up by spotlight.
