Jackson's parents came to Korea when Jackson was sick and took care of him. They also visited a birthday exhibition organised by Jackson fansites:

GOT7 held an open fansign event few hours before Jackson's birthday. Fans gave him a Wang balloon and sang Happy Birthday:

On Jackson's birthday Pepsi China wished him Happy Birthday and welcomed him to 'Pepsi Family'

Soon after GOT7Official reposted their post confirming that Jackson and Pepsi will be working together:
Congratz Jia Er for being added to Pepsi's big family! #BestBirthdayPresent
Jackson also replied Pepsi:

Thank you! My Pepsi family! A year older again! HAHA hold on I am thirsty, talk again after I drink a sip of Pepsi
On the same day Bambam got a new CF deal in Thailand! He will join other famous Thai celebrities as the face of Yamaha!

GOT7 held an open fansign event in Gangnam on the 27th and the members revealed some interesting things:
- Youngjae said he will soon move out of the dorm to live with his hyung
- Jinyoung said he likes how Fan’s allows him to communicate with fans so he wants to delete his Instagram and Twitter, he said he doesn’t need them.
(Fans were very disappointed that Jinyoung wanted to leave SNS so after the fansign event Jinyoung said on Fan's that he won’t delete Instagram. He said he wanted to delete Twitter because he wasn't using it much.)
- Mark said he won’t take off his clothes in the jungle (he's leaving for New Zealand on 03.31)
- Jinyoung said he won’t appear on School 2017

Date: 2017-03-29 04:40 pm (UTC)In a more general note, JYP needs to get its game together for got7 or they will lose the popularity they achieved with Just right and If you do. I don't understand why their producing team is so bad, some of the songs produced by they own members are better than the ones included in their albums. I mean, why the songs that are in JB's and Yopungjae's sounclouds aren't in their album. They are even better in distributing the lines than their producing team. Also, pop music fits them so well that it's a shame that they want to go through the hip hop route.
It also drives me crazy that they are putting the majority of their content in ther channel+ in the vapp. Man, they are not in a potition to do that.
Sorry for the long rant, lol.

Date: 2017-03-29 07:10 pm (UTC)I heard they rejected 2 big drama offers for Suzy so it's not like she's treated well either.
School 2017's filming will take place in June and GOT7 have a Japanese tour planned for May and a Thailand tour for June. If GOT7 keep working like this he'll never have time for something more than a minor role.

Date: 2017-03-30 06:42 am (UTC)Idk didn’t he say that (iirc) that he hadn't gotten any offers or such which made me think these acting gig offers either come from the drama producers(?) or via some manager-type of person from JYPE (I might be completely off the mark here now as well lol) but it made me think that these JYPE ppl ain't doing their job right.... Or then I'm just looking for someone to blame and JY maybe didn’t even care for that drama in the first place. I don't even remember was the drama any good tbh, I just want more action happening in his acting career, in a way that the general public would take note of him.
And based on the other user who replied you's answer I WAS RIGHT (kind of). Idk why I naively thought, after stanning YG artists and getting tired with his shit and knowing SM and their messy self, that JYPE would be better off (lol why have expectations of any idol company ever). Like JYPE is really dropping the ball with a lot of things.
And that brings us to the rest of your rant where I'm just gonna say that YOU'RE PREACHING TO THE CHOIR SIS! On twitter I while back I said that got7 just has a lot of untapped potential and talent that is missguided into the wrong direction. It wasn't until the members started putting out their own music independently on soundcloud or getting these individual gigs that showcase their individual skills that people realized the boys actually have a lot of talent, it's just the music they're given by other people is kinda meh (ok well JYP I think does pretty good songs still but this earattack guy whose been working with them isn't doing them any favors). If you have idols who can write their own music, why not take advantage of that?
I'm annoyed by the ch+ thing as well. Like the new show Jackson is doing where he interviews his members that started today (yesterday?), why is that on the ch+ when got2day and Hard Carry variety were on the regular channel?? Are they gonna put all their shows on the ch+ from now on and try to cash in even more on their fans and exclude non-fans from even getting to know them?

Date: 2017-04-03 04:14 am (UTC)Back to JYPE not caring about their idols' development - they rejected 2 dramas for Suzy when she had nothing to do so she could have easily done them. I saw a long post by Suzy's fan proving how even Suzy's comeback show, one of her MVs and collab weren't JYPE's doing. They didn't want to give her one fansign event for her first solo album (wth) and she only had her first fanmeeting recently but the venue was awfully small. Most fans couldn't get in.
If they treat someone like Suzy like this what can we expect from them when it comes to GOT7?
I wouldn't mind if members composed their title tracks since debut, their sound would be consistent at least (We always hear about how GOT7 have no music identity).
In my opinion the only hope for members to focus on solo stuff and for Jinyoung to finally get a main role in a drama is to debut that new boygroup that is waiting for debut for some time now. JYPE will need them especially after Suzy leaves.

Date: 2017-04-03 07:30 am (UTC)Okay, this makes sense. Just bums me out every time things start to become more and more exclusive.
JYPE business decisions don't seem to make much sense. Maybe now that one group is buried (miss a) and one of their biggest acts (Suzy) is gone, they'll debut that boy group and/or invest more in GOT7. Thankfully GOT7 seems at least quite good at doing independent work so they'll grow their talents and build fanbase through that.

Date: 2017-03-29 03:00 pm (UTC)youngjae's moving out of the dorm? feels weird, but he'll probably get his own room.
no subject
Date: 2017-03-29 03:21 pm (UTC)He probably just want to be with his family. He seems to be very close to his siblings and he hasn't been with them since he got into JYP.

Date: 2017-03-29 07:11 pm (UTC)I think he had to come back because they don't want him / he doesn't want to skip promotions and soon Mark will leave for a week too.
