After 2PM JaeBum left Korea at 6.30pm on 8th September, what is next for 2PM as a 6-member group?
A JYP representative said that there are still discussing about plans for the group. JaeBum will be staying in the States for the time being to sort his feelings out. The good thing is that currently they are not doing promotions and is a resting period before their next album. So it gives the group time to come up with a new concrete team operation plan.
After over 1000 fans sent JaeBum off at the airport on 8th September, fans are fighting back with a petition on Agora online to stop JaeBum from leaving the group. The petitions says, “We can’t send JaeBum off like that” and has already received 25K over support from netizens.
Meanwhile, it was said that JaeBum’s growing affection for Korea after arriving Korea was realised too late by the Korean netizens.
An account posted on the internet says:
”JaeBum had an audition in a wine house called ‘ChinGuYa’ in north Seattle, and had gone to Korea when he was in high school. It was a difficult decision for him to go back to Korea. He was like a ‘banana’ (Asian on the outside, Americanised on the inside) who cannot speak much Korean.”
“Seattle is a city that is different from the other big cities. The community is very small there. Everyone knows everyone else there. And JaeBum’s friends there are like family to him. It must be a difficult time for him to left his family behind and to go to a place which he doesn’t even know anything about, and train as a trainee not knowing when is the end to this path.”
“So he would have the desire to go back to America badly. And for the Americans and locals there they do not use the word GAY by meaning. It is like a code word, but definitely harmless. It is a joke used by young people there.”
“In 2002 during the World Cup, JaeBum has come together with his friends and family at the church in Korea to support for Korea. He was like a real Korean who loves Korea. There is also Koreans in Korea who will say they hate Korea when times are hard for them, isn’t it. And are those people traitors? It is really sad that people label him that. Not talking about this from a point of a fan, but from a mother of a Korean child. I’m writing this for people who are supporting him in Seattle. This friend is just a ‘banana’ who can’t speak Korean well.”

Date: 2009-09-08 12:10 pm (UTC)I can't even think of anything else to say, after following this for so many hours now, except that I hope Jay is doing what makes him happy, and doing it because he wants to and not because his label or cowards behind computers told him to.
Ugh. Last coherent thought I have left and I spend it before I leave for class.
