On November 21st, a video of Jaebeom dancing with AOM in a competition has been revealed. Although some people are speculating that the person in the video is his brother Jehan due to his buffer appearance, eyewitnesses are stating that it really was him. Check out the video for yourself!

They said that this was the idea that producer Park Jin Young came out.

The boys were also asked about Nich Khun’s performance with Ivy during 2009 MAMA last weekend. Ivy had appeared on stage with a vampire concept and had put up a sexy performance with Nich Khun but due to fans’ unhappiness on the over-suggestive performance,she has to even close down her minihompy.

After the broadcast of the current situation for JaeBum has been revealed, the voices of his agency and his fans have been getting louder and louder.
On the 25th, cable channel tvN’s ‘E News’ released a preview promising a recent update on JaeBum in Seattle, America.

Another article:
After the release of a preview on the current whereabouts of Jaebum in Seattle, fans have been flocking to the show’s board and leaving comments of disagreement and begging for the show to leave Jaebum alone.

A representative of E News spoke with Newsen on the phone and explained “Our corner, titled ‘Finding the truth Blackbox’ is a corner that was made to defend celebrities in the face of contradiction and bias. Jaebum is a celebrity himself and so we are using this corner to argue on behalf of Jaebum as a defense.”

The representative went on to state “We went to meet the environment and surroundings of Jaebum to further see his development and listen to Jaebum’s story. We did not go to collect additional data. We just went to see a more human side of him. We also definitely did not film him secretly.”

The show is said to be releasing footage of Jaebum arriving in Seattle to the moment he got on his car last September.

[News] Jaebeom Is Gone But Still Going Strong

Original:
2PM 첫번째 앨범 ‘01:59PM’ 정상질주

세계일보 | 입력 2009.11.24 08:22

재범 없지만 그래도 '탄탄'

멤버 재범의 탈퇴로 7인조에서 6인조로 라인업을 바꾼 남성 그룹 2PM의 인기가 위축되기는 커녕 천정부지로 치솟고 있다.

2PM은 지난 13일 첫 번째 정규앨범 '01:59PM'을 공개했다. 이 음반은 23일 현재 오프라인 음반 판매량 집계 사이트인 한터에서 실시간, 일간, 주간차트에서 모두 정상의 자리에 오르는 기염을 토했다. 선배 아이돌그룹인 빅뱅이나 SS501은 물론, 비슷한 시기에 데뷔한 샤이니마저 제친 순위여서 더욱 눈길을 끈다. 타이틀곡인 '하트비트(Heartbeat)'도 온라인 음악사이트 멜론 차트에서 1위, 엠넷닷컴, 벅스, 도시락 등에서는 2위에 오르는 등 상위권에서 인기몰이 중이다.

특히 음반 판매량에서 폭발적인 점유율을 보인 것은 2PM이 아이돌그룹 시장에서 일정 규모 이상의 팬층을 확보하게 됐다는 사실을 의미한다. 2년여 만에 비슷한 시기에 데뷔한 남성 아이돌 그룹 중 선두를 달리게 된 셈이다. 더구나 2PM은 올해 걸그룹의 열풍 속에서도 '짐승돌'이라는 신조어를 만들어내면서 새로운 아이돌그룹의 미래를 제시하기도 했다.

2PM은 올 초 두 번째 싱글앨범 수록곡 '어겐앤어겐'과 '니가 밉다'로 '짐승돌'이라 불리며 정상급 아이돌그룹으로 급부상했다. 그러나 멤버 재범이 연습생 시절 인터넷 사이트에 남긴 글로 인해 논란 끝에 그룹을 탈퇴하는 시련을 겪어야 했다.

그럼에도 불구하고 이들은 6인조로 활동을 이어가겠다는 의지를 내비쳤다. 소속사 사장이자 작곡가 겸 프로듀서인 박진영의 진두지휘 아래 JYP엔터테인먼트의 소속 작곡가인 이우석, 홍지상, 조종수, 심은지, 김창대, 토미 박 등이 참여해 새 앨범 준비에 돌입했다. 박진영이 작사·작곡한 이번 음반의 타이틀 곡 '하트비트(Heartbeat)'는 전혀 새로운 스타일의 실험적인 곡이지만 2PM만의 색깔을 뚜렷하게 표현했다. 사람의 심장 박동 소리를 곡의 뼈대로 해 여기에 음정을 부여한 드럼 사운드와 주제 악기, 그리고 오케스트라를 결합시킨 곡이다.

이처럼 2PM은 재범의 탈퇴라는 악수에 주저하지 않고 꾸준히 자신들의 음악 활동을 이어가며 오히려 위상을 더욱 굳건하게 다지고 있다.

In English: 
Jaebum is gone but still going strong.

2PM has released their 1st album on the 13th, '01:59PM'. This album, on the 23rd, on offline purchase site in a few days sold a good amount. They have risen above ther idol 'sunbaes': Big Bang, SS501 and also SHINee who has debuted around the same time. The title song 'Heartbeat' is also in 1st on Melon and 2nd on Mnet.com, Box, Doshirak. They are rising in rankings.

During the girl group craze, 2PM brought out a 'beast' concept and broke through.

2PM's single album with 'Again and Again" and "I hate you" created the 'beast' nickname and normal idol group. (ann. normal is in natural / real)
However, they went though a surprising event when Jaebum left the group due to comments on a internet site during his trainee days.

Despite this, the 6 mebered group will continue on. Heartbeat is a very new style of music to try but 2PM has brought color to the song. It is a combination of a heartbeat, drums, instruments and an orcastra.

Even after 2PMs Jaebum's resign, 2PM will do many music promotions and activities and go on rather stronger and firm.

[News] Is Jaebeom Expelled?

Because education is important, one curious (stalker) fan decided to give a call to ex 2PM leader, Jaebeom’s Korean university, Dankook University in Seoul, where the 22-year-old was enrolled. The fan found out the kicked out 2PM member  failed to submit documents requesting a leave of absence. The fan then asked if that meant he’s automatically expelled from the university. The office worker didn’t necessarily reply, but it is the university’s policy that if a student is absent from the university without submitting documents for that absence, that student can be expelled from the program. However, students expelled in this manner can be re-admitted after review.

Jaebum left Korea on September 8, 2009. Registration for classes at Dankook University ran until August 28th, adding or dropping courses until September 11, and absence report cutoff was until the 30th. Most fans assumed that Jaebum was too preoccupied to handle these matters.

Netizens started writing on the Internet, “Jaebum withdrew from Dankook and is preparing for university in America,” and “Jaebum is taking this opportunity to settle in America, it doesn’t seem like he’ll come back,” though there was no real confirmation of this news.

When the media learned of the fans’ findings, they also started inquiring to the university about Jaebum’s real status. Dankook University answered, “For privacy reasons, we cannot check.”

[news] Is Pressure on South Korea’s Celebrities Leading them to Suicide?

Newspapers all over the world write up stories when celebrities commit suicide. We can’t help wondering why those we idolize most — the world’s wealthiest, most beautiful, most talented — would take their own lives. Don’t they have it all? Don’t we want to be them? And won’t we show up anyway tomorrow to audition for JYP – the Korean management firm that trains and manages K-Pop bands, Korean TV stars, and even models?


Though it is not uncommon for celebrities to take their own lives, in South Korea more than anywhere else it has become a trend, and the blogs are buzzing at the recent death of a Korean runway model. Is caused by the country’s demanding entertainment industry, the voracious appetite of its fans, or the plain truth that Korea’s stars face the pressure of also being their country’s ambassadors — as the small country has had so many entertainers reach the international spotlight?


Yesterday, model Daul Kim was found hanged in her Paris apartment.


A 5′10″ statuesque beauty who had modeled for Chanel and Topshop and had traveled the world, she found herself gradually becoming an icon for her country, the ambassador for the beauty of Korean women. According to the AP:

In an Oct. 30 entry on her blog, Kim wrote she was “mad depressed and overworked,” and in another entry said “the more i gain the more lonely it is … i know i’m like a ghost.” … Bloggers in South Korea mourned her death, speculating she felt the pressure of high-fashion modeling and a loss of identity.


Kim is also the ninth Korean celebrity to commit suicide over the past two years — joining a list that includes actors, actresses, and even the country’s past president. But though many reasons can lead one to feel desperate enough to take one’s own life, in suicide notes, many of these celebrities cited the pressure of the spotlight.

Last September, TV star Ahn Jae-hwan killed himself, supposedly after rising debts, and soon afterward Korea’s “national sweetheart” Choi Jin-sil committed suicide.



According to Korean entertainment columnist Park Soo Na, one of the reasons could be Jin-sil’s status as a single mother, a woman forging her own path. “Korean society does not like strong women, and thinks single moms have a personality disorder,” she said.

On March 7th this year, soap star Jang Ja-yeon left a seven-page suicide letter behind at her death, accusing 10 TV producers, newspaper CEOs, her talent agent and other entertainment execs of sexual exploitation.



The Guardian mused about whether the source of her struggle wasn’t the “slave contracts” Korea’s celebrities are subjected to.

Whereas some garage bands can have a year of sloppy practice sessions and get signed to Virgin records, Korea’s pop and film stars are intensely trained, supervised, and toured around to celeb functions by a coordinated network of agents, managers, publicists and execs.

In his special behind-the-scenes feature on the world of K-Pop, Edward Chun explained how Korea’s music stars go through intense training. “Ten to 12-hour work days, seven days a week – that is the life of a K-pop star-in-training,” he wrote ...

I asked the group to describe a typical day, and Kevin(UKISS)...filled me in: two hours of exercise in the morning, four hours of dance and choreography classes, two hours of vocal training, and two additional hours for review and language studies. This was their 24-7 schedule – and is in addition to busy days on the road touring, appearing on television programs, or recording music….I asked them if they felt that their company controlled their private lives. “Being an entertainer, to be honest, especially teenagers who think it’s a glamorous thing – it’s only on-stage or on television,” said Alexander. “Behind the scenes, we put in lot of effort. We are also worried and get stressed about how we can keep being popular, and how to keep our fame and be a successful star.”


K-Pop Star Isak told Chun every detail of her training regimen, including how the management kept tabs on the talent’s love life:

“[T]hey were afraid that we would sneak out. They would put in a house phone for us, and we couldn’t call from our cell phones. We had to call from our house phone to our manager as soon as we walk[ed] in the door [to inform them] that we came in.” Isak also recalled the strict no-dating policy at the time: “No dating,” she said. “You get caught, you pay consequences.” I asked her what the consequences were. “I was threatened that if I didn’t break up with my boyfriend then I would be either cut from SM or not [be] able to debut.”


But it isn’t only the management that doesn’t allow South Korean celebrities to have complete, happy lives. It’s also (gulp!) the fans. In the West, stars that do few interviews with the media and try their best to lead completely private lives are thought of as artistic savants who need their space. Think of Daniel Day Lewis, the American actor who at the height of his career moved to Florence to learn the practice of cobbling shoes, and returned five years later, telling reporters he wouldn’t speak of it: “It was a period of my life that I had a right to without any intervention of that kind.” He went on to win multiple Academy Awards.

In Korea, the lead band-member of pop group 2PM is on hiatus — whether at the bidding of the management or his own inclination — and the fans won’t stop their protests, going so far as to boycott the record and broadcast a sign to the singer via low-flying airplane. That’s a tough crowd to face.



With the eleventh highest suicide rate in the world, Korea’s rate could also, of course, be linked to the country’s averse relationship with psychiatry. “Koreans are very secretive about psychiatric problems,” Lee Myung Soo, a psychiatrist at the Seoul Metropolitan Mental Health Centre, told Time Magazine

[news] JYP: "If Jaebum Is Willing To Return, I Will Help...",

Park Jin Young speaks up officially about 2PM's Jaebum for the first time on MBCs's "Golden Fishery".

On the November 11th episode of "Golden Fishery", Park Jin Young said, “If Jaebum comes back, he will return as part of 2PM, of course. It will not be a solo comeback.”

MC Kang Ho Dong then asked, “Did you have to send Jaebum off to America in such a rush?” and Park Jin Young replied, “When Jaebum’s case was exposed, it was put under great criticism. And when he returned to the States, suddenly public opinion was, ‘Was there a mistranslation?’ and that he did not do any wrong. The answer is in-between.”

He continued, “Even though it was not like it was a mistake, it was not like it wasn’t a mistake as well. Someone who is responsible for part of the culture or has nothing to do with our culture should not be receiving the criticisms.”

“Jaebum is not a bad child. Back then, he was going through a tough time and was not motivated at all. He even said to me, "If it is not Park Jin Young’s song, I am confident of success." But I like it that he does not lie. Jaebum has been changing and the Jaebum now is very different from the Jaebum then. The Jaebum back then caused hurt to many Koreans, but the Jaebum now is very embarrassed by what he has done and does not want to burden the group as the leader, so he has decided to leave. If it was me, I would have done the same.”

Kang Ho Dong then asked, “As the company, shouldn’t you stop him?” Park Jin Young said, “He did wrong, and on his own, he thought that he did wrong. If you care about Jaebum... I think that public opinion and fans should leave him be. He will know that everyone cares, but leave him to be for now.”

inally, he said, “The thing that I can do is be help as a singing and dance teacher to help him keep his standards as a singer up during this resting period. When he is willing to return on to the stage, I will help him willingly. If Jaebum is to return, he will return as 2PM and not solo. Jaebum, the other members and myself, will not want a solo comeback.”

[news] Could Jaebeom Be Back?! [EDIT]

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But what kinds of words has this photo of Jaebeom struck up?

In the last couple of hours, a certain photograph of 2PM’s ex-leader Jaebeom has been circulating around on fan sites, stirring chaos amongst 2PM fans. This candid photo shows Jaebeom leaving a Korean airport.

Wait! Korean airport?! Yes, you heard me right. Many fans are speculating that this photo is recent because it hasn’t been seen by many people yet. Some fans are even suggesting that he may be returning just in time for this year’s MAMA. Now if this is the case, the question would be whether he’s returning just to attend the awards show or to perform with 2PM, as they are having a special stage with Ivy this year.

So what do you think? Could this possibly be Jaebeom’s return to 2PM? Or is it just a rumor?

[INFO] More Jaebum "Hot Blood" diary entries,

A few entries from Jay's diary written during the filming of ONEDAY'S "Hot Blood" show during their trainee days.

Jaebum’s Diary

Yesterday was a bit demanding so this morning’s training was more difficult than usual…
The yoga was also harder than I thought…
I think the yoga teacher is really pretty…
3 years prior I was annoyed by my mom’s nagging and
annoyed by my brother, but now there is never a day that I don’t miss them.

Mom, Dad, Jehan, Peatry, Tony, JR, Yoon
Sam, all my relatives
I love you guys so much...
Thank you God for putting them into My life
Amen

My strength
My hope
The reason I want to do well
So that the other people can be proud
I want to become a good brother, friend, son, student, person…
If I do well, if I succeed, I can buy them the things they need and give them happiness…
All the people I love can do well…

Jaebum's Diary

Today… I can only describe it as daebak[truly amazing]…
It was so cold I thought I was going to freeze to death, but in the end I finished it well
The other kids did well too…
Even if I was to leave this group, I am able to wish the kids to have an amazing debut and do well, without any regrets or sadness….
I mean it very sincerely…
Even before I entered the group, I wished it…
Today, all the people put in a lot of effort.

Jaebum's Diary

The morning exercise was a bit hard, but good…
I almost let out tears… (because of talks about member’s elimination…)
In the end I kept it in…
The rap was also fun and good…

Mr. Typhoon seems cool…
I think he writes raps better than the other kids first thought…

I want to go exercise…
Please give me my cellphone…
I miss everyone…

Jaebum's Diary

It was not that hard waking up…
Running with our tops off was cold, but it was good because something about it was liberating.
I’m really sad that I couldn’t box.
It’s an honor to learn b-boying from MAXIMUM CREW…
The best.
I saw an online video of them b-boying in the States…
Anyways, even if I’m tired, keep “Killin it”

[news] Interview with 2PM fancafe core member, stance on Golden Fishery statements

After JYP appeared on the show 'Golden Fishery,' 2PM fans have been flocking to the show's board and are pressuring JYP with statements such as "Immediately stop using Jaebum as a marketing tool."

A core member of the '2PM Fan Cafe' agreed to a phone interview with us on the 12th in an effort to express the viewpoint and feelings of the fans after the statements JYP made on Golden Fishery.

She did not hesitate to express her disappointment, starting with "I saw the broadcast, but I immediately regretted seeing it. I thought that it was so like JYP. There's a big difference between what regular people view JYP as and what fans view him as. Others see him as successful with great corporate skills. We admit that. But fans do not accept JYP in any way.

There is no difference between what he said on air and what he said through official statements months ago. It is merely a voiced version of those articles. JYP made the fans out to be little brats that are whining for Jaebum's immediate return. He placed the blame on Jaebum and placed great pressure on the fans to leave him alone and stop our boycotts. Basically, he pushed the blame on to someone else.

There are fans that have given up and have began supporting 6PM after the broadcast. But instead of trusting JYP, they are attempting to give him a chance because at this point, JYP is the only person holding the key to Jaebum's return.

Furthermore, JYP is ignoring the efforts of the fans. When Jaebum's controversy first exploded, we as fans attempted to fix it by spreading the fact that there were translation errors. We also participated in various charities such as blood donations, donations for the youth, books... We attempted to find forgiveness for Jaebum through these actions.

In order to help Jaebum feel more at ease, we sent more than thousands of hand written letters with thousands of folded paper roses with thousands of post its with thousands of UCC messages. What fans want now is not Jaebum's return. What we want is an official statement that clearly takes back Jaebum's withdrawal from the group and the promise that his spot as the leader will be left in tact. Even if Jaebum does not immediately return, the fact that his spot remains open will be of great assurance to the fans.

What we want especially is not leaving little comments on shows such as 'Golden Fishery' but an official press conference that states these things. Then the boycott will cease. Should JYP continue to ignore the fans and use Jaebum as his marketing tool, the boycott will never stop."

[News]Park Jin Young, “JaeBum will return. When he does, he will return as 2PM” !

Park Jin Young speaks up officially about 2PM JaeBum for the first time on MBC Golden Fishery.

On Golden Fishery aired on 11th November, Park Jin Young said, “If JaeBum comes back, he will return as part of 2PM of course. It will not be a solo comeback.”

MC Kang Ho Dong then asked, “Do you have to send JaeBum off to America in such a rush?” and Park Jin Young replied, “When JaeBum’s case was exposed, it was put under great criticism. And when he returned to the States, suddenly public opinion was ‘Was there a mistranslation?’ and that he did not do any wrong. The answer is in between.”

He continued, “Even though it was not like it is a mistake, it was not like it wasn’t a mistake as well. Someone who is responsible for part of the culture or has nothing to do with our culture should not be receiving the criticisms.”

“JaeBum is not a bad child. Back then he was going through a tough time and was not motivated at all. He even said to me ‘If it is not Park JinYoung’s song, I am confident of success’. But I like it that he does not lie. JaeBum has been changing and the JaeBum now is very different from the JaeBum then. The JaeBum back then had caused hurt to many Koreans, but the JaeBum now is very embarrassed by what he has done and does not want to burden the group as the leader so he has decided to leave. If it’s me I would have done the same.”

Add-on translation:

Kang Ho Dong then asked, “As the company, shouldn’t you stop him?” Park Jin Young said, “He did wrong, and on his own he thought that he did wrong. If you care about JaeBum, I think that public opinion and fans should leave him to be. He will know that everyone cares, but leave him to be for now.”

Lastly, he said, “The thing that I can do is be help as a dance and song teacher to help him keep his standards as a singer up during this resting period. When he is willing to return on to the stage, I will help him willingly. If JaeBum is to return, he will return as 2PM and not solo. JaeBum, the other members and myself will not want a solo comeback.”

[NEWS] Jokwon expresses his desire for Jaebum's return

2AM’s JoKwon’s sincere expression “1:59 KEEP GOING for 2PM’s Jaebum’s return”

2AM’s JoKwon wrote on his mini home page his thoughts of Jaebum and his return.

JoKwon updated his mini homepage by putting “1:59, 2:00” below the main picture and writing “Yearning” on the left side, as well as writing “Keep Going” at the top for the title.

1:59 is the time that 2AM/2PM fans use after Jaebum left. The hope for writing “Keep Going” is to express that the clock stopped at 1:59, hoping that it can be 2PM, the 7 member group again as soon as possible when Jaebum returns and activities continue.

[INFO] 080300 Jaebum's diary entry from "Hot Blood" show

Jaebum’s diary-
I wasn’t that surprised this morning…
We didn’t even do anything good and coming to the beach to play, doesn’t make sense…
Since I always exercise, it was manageable…
It seems like the teacher is very good….
Right now, at this time, it seems like I can persevere these hardships…
It’s because I suffered a lot for four years after leaving home…
It’s not like we’re even staying here…
I don’t show it, but honestly, it’s a little….
I must show strength while thinking of the people I love…

[news] 2PM Interview with InStyle revealed

After two long months, 2PM is truly back - first with a controversial performance at Dream Concert, then two song releases, and now an interview. Many Hottests have been dying to see these boys up close and personal again, and their wishes have finally been granted. Check out this interview with InStyle below:





To many people, these videos are a relief - the boys seem much brighter and healthier than in September, and even crack some jokes. Wooyoung briefly talks about the individual charms of each member, revealing that Chansung was a nice guy that didn't get along well with people, and Junho ripped his pants during the photoshoot due to his overly tight pants. Great to see that our boys are still as hilarious as ever!

Unfortunately, Jaebeom wasn't present, and his name never came up during the interview... it felt like there was an elephant in the room.
