[identity profile] shanny-w.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] omonatheydid


As many of you have read earlier about Paran fans being angry as new solo singer AJ bears the same name as Paran’s youngest member AJ.

Solo singer AJ’s company came out to explain that the meaning to the name is different, but the matter continue when the Paran fans were said to have uploaded badly-photoshopped photos of AJ, and Paran AJ himself apparently also referred to solo singer AJ as ‘Fake AJ’ on his minihompy.

The supposedly true photos and printscreens.

Paran AJ’s blog entry on his minihompy, written in English, he was said to have referred to AJ as the ‘Fake AJ‘.




And photos supposedly made by Paran fans.

While the Korean netizens are getting all worked up about this matter on the internet, Paran’s company came out to say that the blog entry and the photos are not made by Paran fans.

But to say, we really don’t know who is telling the truth.

In anyway whoever made those photos and posts is just plain childish IMO. I believe that this will more or less affect AJ who is trying to build up his solo singing career after his debut.

To add on, like many readers on this blog have voiced, you can’t have your name to yourself – we have similar cases of same names like Changmin in 2AM – Dong Bang Shin Ki, or JunSu in 2PM – Dong Bang Shin Ki and nothing happened. I feel really unfair for AJ.






Netisens’ say:

* “But still, Paran is still active. This is not right”
* “So what should Backstreet Boys AJ fans do then?”
* “I mean it is alright to have same names right?”
* Reply to above, “But look at the case of 2NE1… kkkkk”
* “Can this just a form of noise marketing?”
* “Paran fans… really overdid it”
* Reply to above, “This is not the doing of the Paran fans. We don’t know who did these”
* “But then again, who will do this other than Paran fans?”

Don't they have some homework they should be doing?

I don't get why they insist on getting themselves all worked up and stressed out over nothing. :\

this situation is so damn stupid. You cannot copyright a name, meaning no one has a claim to a name. I don't understand how these two (well so far AJ from Paran) and some of their fans feel like they have any claim to a name?? EVEN more, a foreign name.

That whole message left by AJ has FAIL written all over it. Seriously, he makes absolutely no sense AT ALL. I'm assuming he wrote in English to lay more claim over an English name..but at the end he comes out looking like an idiot. It's so embarrassing not only for him but for his fans who are fighting this dumb thing.

Seriously? There can't be two singers with the same name? There's like 5 Kim Kibums in kpop bands and they deal with it. And a lot of other kcelebs have the same name but find ways to work around it.

Excuse you Korean netizens, I made that BSB comment first. :)

And these Korean netizens are idiots omg. This is ridiculous.

This whole situation is going from petty to just plain ridiculous. See, this is what turned me from Kpop the first time. When ELF were causing all that drama. I'm just sick of this nonsense that these pre-teen girls are starting. And really, who is Paran AJ to say all of that (if it is indeed him)? He is quite obviously just as immature as his fanbase. I used to be a fan - but this has put him on my permanent "asshole" list.

AJ and fans are just butthurt because he is not popular anymore. There is a season to everything - Paran's has just passed. They were one of the top groups while they were popular, but it's just not that way now. I mean - do they even have their own wiki anymore?

Gah - sorry about the rant. I just get sick of this bullshit sometimes.

Solo AJ is much more attractive and personally, I think he sings much better. I look forward to hearing more of what he has to offer!

This shouldn't be that big of a deal. There are lots of Kim Kibum's (two from the same company, even) and like what it said above, there are two Changmin's and two Junsu's. I'm a DBSK fan, and I don't see the problem in that. :/
