[RUMOR] 100507 2PM's hoard purchasing controversy continues


If over 6800 were sold to 2PM's fandom, it's a bit ridiculous.
That means their fandom is one of the top of this nation's, which obviously isn't true.
That's why so many people have their doubts about this.

- We all feel the 'sajegi' suspicions but there's only so much we can do.

- Of course we're suspicious, look at the size of their fandom. Maybe JYPE chipped in and bought most of it while the fans managed to buy 2-3k of the total amount. Their fandom may have been completely crushed but they can probably at least afford 2k worth.

- If it was a hoard purchase, that means 2PM's fandom exceeds Elfs and Triple S's.

- Where's the proof of purchase from their fan union? When SS501 did a hoard purchase, they uploaded all receipts and proof of donation to charities. Where's their proof?

- This really is too much, the amount is excessive. If we were talking about 2PM's old fandom, it would make a bit of sense.. But their fandom is cut by more than half and they barely managed to sell over 8k in the first week. The fact that they sold over 6.8k to one person is suspicious.

- Looking at 2PM's current fandom, it's hard to understand how this is possible. Unless they were able to all agree upon one action, to hoard purchase all at once instead of buying it in the first week it was released, 6.8k is impossible to accomplish.

- Realistically, it's impossible. Why do you think that the other bigger fandoms aren't able to accomplish something that 2PM's fandom did? It's easy to say that 1,000 fan members bought at least 10 CDs each in order to get 10,000 purchases but do you realistically think that is possible? It's understandable for the fans to 'shield' the controversy but they really have no ground.




- What I'm suspicious about is that they sold 8.1k in their first week and ALSO managed to sell over 6.8k at once. It just doesn't make sense. SNSD manages to sell nearly 50k CDs in their first week. This is like saying SNSD's fandom managed to buy 50k more CDs at once.

- SS501's hoard purchase never arose suspicions but there seems to be a lot of things wrong with 2PM's.

- It's completely abnormal for them to be able to sell that much at once. You can tell a fandom's power by looking at their first week of sales. No matter how 'unified' their fandom is, for them to be able to buy that much is just.... This is so much more than the amount SS501's fandom hoard purchased, which barely amounted to 5k.



I saw this while looking at their Tellzone. People are saying that 2PM fans will be buying CDs and donating them. Are their CDs really not selling? Have they not even been able to even sell 10k?

- Yes, they haven't been able to.

- They're not donating, they're giving it away for free on the streets.

- That's... gotta be a joke.

- The thing is, they're not doing this to listen to their music or enjoy it. They're doing it to manipulate the scores and get 2PM a #1 on a music program. If that isn't fraud, then what is? Sajegi or not, it's not something that's right or normal.

- The controversy right now is whether the company bought it themselves or not. If the fans bought maybe 1k, no one would care... it's their money.

- Sure, bulk buying isn't controversy worthy but if they win #1 because of that, is that fair? Isn't that fraud? It completely falls under the category of sajegi.


- Hyori looks angry...

- Look at the album sales points. Our music industry is so sad. Just one hoard purchase can buy anyone a #1 win.

- I hope Hyori can get #1 next week. When 2PM won first, Luna got surprised and started clapping while VicSong just stuck out her lip.

- Music rank points are nonexistent. Now the album sales are the ones that determine everything.

- Looking at Hyori's expression is upsetting. There's still a chance for her



2PM's Fan Union previously held a CD give away in the streets.

They have yet to release any receipts or any proof for their purchases, as is custom for fanclubs that participate in bulk purchases.




Except this picture:

But what did they do with their CD purchases?

2PM fans went around to the stores around the streets they were giving away the CDs at started begging the store owners to play the 2PM CDs. Are they in charge of marketing 2PM now? Are the albums not selling that well? I'm almost embarrassed.

In youngdeungpo, a store really did play their song nonstop, per request of 2PM fans.

- They create a deficit with their album sales and cover the expenses by selling the boys for cheap to CFs and then cover that costs with sajegi with the CDs. They might as well give away the CDs for free at cabarets.

- It's true, they really did give it away for free.



So who spent the $48,750?
