2pmjaebum JYPE’s conference: 2PM, Jaebeom & Hottests

So what on earth is going over there in Seoul?!  Pure craziness and lots of drama that you will need to eats lots of popcorn for because this is surely exciting.  First, if you don’t know already Jaebeom has left 2PM. Yeahhh…sorry for the folks that thought he was going to return.  It has been confirmed that he will not be back.  JYP Entertainment recently had a conference to discuss 2PM and the whole Jaebeom ordeal.  Well, first it was a 4 hour conference!  Only in S. Korea would this kind of conference take place when someone from a group left.  I actually find it very nice that the company would hold this conference for the fans but 4 hours…those fans were there for business let’s get that straight first.  The hottests’ came out in full force and demanded answers from JYPE and 2PM.  I won’t summarize the whole 4 hour conference you can listen to it yourself or read the English transcripts here but Jaebeom left, who knows what else he did that was even more terrible than that whole Facebook episode.  Did he do drugs, have wild and crazy sex…I don’t know but the fact of the matter is that he left, he is in America and he is not coming back.  So get over it and move on with your lives…hottests’ please move on to the next thing!  If I am to be honest, the group’s vocals are actually below average.  What they have going for them is their looks…only in Korea…well not just Korea can you get away with a bad voice and still be a famous singer.  S. Korea relies more on looks than it does actual talent.

So where am I going with this…ohhh back to the hottests’ and the conference, everyone was a little emotional there and could have said things more politely but it was a very hard and  drawn out conference.  What do I think about thing whole thing?  I think the rest of 2PM members are in it for themselves, they want to have a job, they want to still keep getting paid.  It’s that simple.  So how can they possible help and defend Jaebeom in any way shape or form.

What do you think of this whole fiasco make a comment?

Download the 4 hour conference here.

I really love historical drams and Chuno (추노) is going to be a huge hit.  It is actually still airing in Korea and many other countries too as of March 1st.  So if, you haven’t heard about it, where have you been!?  Here is the synopsis.chuno 206x300 Chuno OST (추노)

Synopsis

Set during the Joseon (Chosun) dynasty, Chuno (“Slave Hunter”) takes place in the world of slave hunters and slaves, and focuses on Lee Dae Gil (played by Jang Hyuk), a nobleman whose transformation from a kind lord to a ruthless slave-hunter unfolds with unflinching clarity. Dae Gil is a man of high birth and expected to uphold the family line, but when he falls in love with his kind, beautiful slave, Un Nyun (Lee Da Hae), tragedy strikes. Un Nyun loves him in return, but when Dae Gil’s father finds out, he plans to sell her off. Desperate to help her, Un Nyun’s brother Ki Yoon burns down the house, killing Dae Gil’s parents in the process, and escapes, taking his sister with him.  What happens next…watch it!

OST

There are a total of 18 songs in part 1 and part 2 OST.    Have something to say about this drama…well make a comment about it here.

Ohh I can say is what an invasion of privacy and down right obsessive behavior.  I mean we all know the paparazzi, this isn’t as bad as the paparazzi we see in America but for heaven’s sake just leave this guy alone.  If he wants to do an interview I’m sure he knows who to call.  Anyways judge for yourself.
