2PM's Jay Park Scandal


Ok, so this happened literally like a billion years ago and people have probably gotten over it, but I feel the need to bring it up again because of how sad it was that JYP Entertainment dismissed Jay Park, leader of 2PM.
Here's a little background information on the K-Pop group 2PM; firstly, they debuted in September of 2008 with their first single, 10 Points out of 10 Points. The group consisted of 7 members known as; Taecyeon, Wooyoung, Chansung, Junsu, Junho, Jeobom, and Nickhun. Soon after their debut, the group's fan base skyrocketed. The next year, the group launched their first album known as 2:00PM Time for Change. This album brought them two M-net Asian Music Awards for Best Male Group and Artist of the Year.
In September 2009, Jay left to Seattle to escape his haters after a few MySpace comments insulting Korea and Koreans went viral. This left the rest of 2PM members to handle the scandal on their own.  It is rumored that as soon as Jay left to Seattle, group members were said to have celebrated the fact that they only split the money six ways and not seven. Also, Taecyeon and Wooyoung apparently started to bring girls back to their dorm when they had a spare room.
In October, the group finally moved on to record another hit single Without You without their leader. It was only officially announced in February of 2010 that Park Jaebom will not be rejoining 2PM due to not only the MySpace indiscretion but also a few others that the public, to this day, has no knowledge of.
It is also apparent that during their early days, when there were mild indiscretions of the 2PM members, JYPE blamed it on Jay, saying it was his bad leadership for not keeping them in check. People also say that the rest of the 2PM members bullied Jay, along with Nickhun. There isn’t sufficient evidence to prove that they were bullied.
In my opinion, I do believe that Jay and Nickhun were bullied and this is one of the many reasons why I’m no longer a 2PM fan. Taecyeon, you can wave that 6 pack of yours somewhere else because I’m not buying it.

  1. The information isn't really trusted, "10 out of 10 points" was their first single, not an album and when jaebom left 2pm realised their first album 1:59, not without you, without you was almost a year and moths later in the single named "dont stop, cant stop", you have very wrong information and only rumors. Also Jay was definitely their leader, they suffers even today his retirement.
    Nichkhun also talks many times about the bully rumors, and said 2pm members are his family, and he never felt bullied by them and the absolute proof of that was when khun was in"the car accident", 2pm was consulted if they want to continue without khun, but they wait for him, wait months for him to take his time, and all the members confort him by then, so, please try to be more carefull with you research if you are going to share it.

    1. I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU VALENTINA!This is false information. Jay Park and Nichkhun sees 2PM as their brothers not their bullies. Jay Park also commented "For me, we all struggled together, came up together, and that's something I'll never forget. So, as for me, those dudes are still my boys." This was said in a interview he had regards with the 2PM scandal. but i really have no say whether those "rumors" were true, since i no nothing of their personal life.But im a Hottest and ill keep fighting for 2PM and Jay park!

  2. I really hope that you are wrong, because I can't imagine my inspirational boys bully Jay Park and Nickhun. I mean, my whole life has been nothing but a lie if that's true. I really loved them and I still do but If these rumors really are true, I will really get heartbroken...
