Credit as tagged Today's events have been that of which I can only call a fiasco. For those of you who aren't Kpop fans, please just don't continue reading.
Drama ensued in the Land of Kimchi today. The leader of 2PM, Park Jaebeom, decided, announced and actually carried out his intent to leave the group
(as well as Korea, for that matter) after being bulldozed by relatively harsh and cruel comments from certain Korean netizens. All in response to some comments he made to his friend's Myspace page a couple years back (during his training period).
First and foremost, I just want to say that I'm am no huge fan of 2PM
(occasional listener as some put it) but what happened with Jae really sickens me. Secondly, is there no such a thing as privacy anymore? The remarks made by Jae was something he vented in confidence
(albeit, Myspace doesn't really have privacy) but for someone to go and dig up a 4 YEAR OLD comment just so they can proclaim their hatred, is really beyond me. I don't get it at all.
As I have said many, many times before, I do not and will NEVER understand the viewpoint of an Anti-fan
(or antis as we call them). Why go to so much trouble, just to hate someone? What is the basis for all that anger or hatred? What did that person/group do to you that empowered you enough to actually wish/petition for his/her/their death(s)? If I hated something, yes, I'd feel strongly about it but more to the point, I wouldn't even bother about the hated subject anymore. It's really a waste of time.
Because of Jae's departure, friends of mine have shed tears and I don't like that one bit. I really wonder whether those antis realise how many lives they have affected through their actions? Not only did they ruin a highly talented and gifted star's future
(all in 3 days) but they also managed to cause thousands of fans' utter devastation. How do they actually sleep at night, knowing what they have done? I am absolutely pissed with the anti-fans right now. I am officially an ANTI-antifan. How does it feel to have people hate you now? Yahh!! You people really make my blood boil!
Hundreds of fans gathered at the Incheon airport with hopes that they'd actually get to persuade/stop Jae from leaving but to no avail. They just ended up crying
(not so silently) and unwillingly but peacefully sent their idol off with all their love for him. Seeing the pics and watching the departure vids made me a tad teary as even Jae was looking so sad that he was leaving. Truly a heartbreaking event that was. All in all, I wish Jae the best of luck in whatever he does for the future, hopefully you'll return to Korea. But then, if you hook up with Lady GaGa and make it big, that'd be a total slap in those psychos' faces. Haa! I'm just saying. Hehehe ^^
Also, I've been following the tweets on Twitter since 1pm and till now it's still going strong. Jaebum/Jay has been on the trending topics list for almost 10hours now and this would directly reflect how many people have tweeted about him in response to him quitting. All day today fans were saying things like "Don't leave! We need you!" or "2PM will never be the same again" or "I am so heartbroken, I'm crying like crazy now".... It's really saddening to see these kinda comments pop up every 5 seconds.
The Kpop world was already shaken to the core when rumours of DBSK's disbandment began floating through the air a month ago. Reeling fans have only just begun to settle themselves and now another bomb has exploded thus shaking the ever-so-fragile foundation of Kpopland once more. Is there no end to the drama for these Korean boybands?? Oh yes, SS501's leader, Hyun Joong-sshi was diagnosed with swine flu too. So here's to wishing for his speedy recovery ^^
More stressing news to follow within this week, I guess. JaeYooSu have their final hearing on the 11th (Gahhh!! It's the suwey date of 11/09... Omo, omo... Positive thoughts! Positive thoughts!) and hopefully we'll find out the result to this huge debacle. So maybe, just maybe.... Cassies can finally have some true relief and sleep well at night. As we keep saying for the past month, Always Keep The Faith! Believe in the boys as they have believed in us. After today's events, all the more, we need to keep the faith, right?
It's almost midnight now.. Gotta get ready for bed and I really need the sleep after today. I'm totally wiped. Oh wait! It's 090909 tomorrow which means Heading to the Ground will be airing in Korea that night! Finally the wait is over. Here's to hoping Goess makes a speedy but HQ translation of the drama.
