[NEWS] 100303 Journalists speak out with their own assessments

These are a compilation of exceprts from various articles that kHottests collected as a way of showing that there are still respectful journalists out there that care to look at all sides of the situation. Amongst the plethora of articles that make the fans out to be angry monsters, the articles listed below are receiving the support of kHottests for their thoughtful assessments of the situation.




Pop Culture Critic

"The role of the agency is not to schedule events and activities. They are supposed to make the images of the celebrities within their agencies - even their private lives. The reason why JYPE is receiving so much criticism from their fans is because they pushed all of the blame onto Jaebum. The core of the problem was the fatal private life mistake in this matter." He went on to criticize, stating, "As always, the company's one-sided decision making is the biggest issue here."

"Fans are not believing the reason for Jaebum's withdrawal. If it was truly just a mistake made in his private life, and as long as he isn't a criminal, I believe that the members should have been able to completely protect him. As much as the company has used 'Jaebum Marketing,' the members' responses have also lost their credibility."

"Taking legal action against upset fans? There were no conversations or communications in the conference. Every statement made by the members came as a shock to the fans. At the unending questions, the members went on the offense and gave sharp, pointed answers. With statements such as 'make a commotion,' and 'the right to,' the members' choice of vocabulary only made the rage amongst fans grow bigger. This is not the brotherly image that 2PM had shown before as they now turn their backs on the member that has been terminated."

"There's a problem with JYPE playing dumb to Jaebum's private life. After they revealed that Jaebum had made a secret problem in his private life, rumors began pouring out. Eventually, at the conference, JYPE and the 2PM members alike were only busy making the actual severity of Jaebum's mistake bigger by stating things such as, "It's a problem bigger than those rumors." It's been known to the public that Jaebum has been terminated from the group because of an unhealthy social life and he is now known as someone with morality problems. Whether or not Jaebum has committed a mistake of morality or not, it's only obvious that the people that have chosen him from America and trained him here should be the ones responsible and the ones that must protect him. Not even the 2PM members, but JYP Entertainment."

"Taecyeon was not shy from making comments that made the audience blush in embarrassment, making statements such as, "I don't know what you're talking about," and "Go ask Jaebum about that." Wooyoung himself spoke in a lecturing tone to the fans despite the fact that they were quite a bit older than him (There was even someone as old as his mother in the audience). The responses that the members gave made those listening in the audience feel uncomfortable.

The members even gave off sarcastic smiles or bitter laughters, sometimes even yawning. A participant of the conference stated that the actions of the members made the fans in the audience more guarded. They acted as if just being there, they were in unspeakable pain.

Whether or not the 2PM members followed what the company told them to do, the attitude that they showed at the conference on the 27th was not mature at all. What kind of company would say to their fans, "Then why didn't you guys shield Park Jaebum yourself?" What right do they have as an agency to lecture responsibility towards their angry fans?

This is something that not even 2PM's fans, but the mass public alike, doesn't understand."

"The 6 members of 2PM, do they think they have nothing to lose now that they are at the height of their popularity without Jaebum?""There was no member on Jaebum's side at the conference.""I have never seen such idols act like this in my life.""Jaebum has received wings, he can live fine without JYPE.""The era of the beastly idols have come to an end, a new creation of fake idols rise."
