2PM JaeBum doesn't deserve all this HATRED

I was really happy today knowing that Dara’s single Kiss is doing good in charts and people have been giving her more love and support until I heard about 2PM’s leader Jaebum has left Korea and his 2PM group just because of his previous comments in myspace 4 years ago.

"Jaebeom reportedly arrives at 12:40PM PST in Seattle."

Because of it, a lot of netizens got angry about it and even going too far on creating a suicide petition for him entitled as “Jaebeom Should Commit Suicide”. I was relieved to know that there were other people who still supported him and have forgiven him which they have also done a petition to forgive Jae entitled as “Please Forgive Our Jaebeom Just This Once”.

This just made my heart torn apart. I got really sad about this news. Thanks to those ANTI-Fans who crushed and ruined his dreams. I may not be a die-hard fan of 2PM but this group has captured my heart because of their talents and crazy characters that is beyond a celebrity. I would always be laughing whenever I watch their shows and keeps on smiling whenever they perform. Doing this to him has gone too far. Jae is such a talented person and not to mention he’s an ideal leader.

My family was all in America and when I came to Korea it seemed like everyone was being cold to me. I had no idea when I would debut and I was really lonely. It was a really difficult and lonely period for me due to various reasons. I missed home, felt like giving up and wanted to go back to my family in America.
I posted such things because I really hated how I was living then and got really worked up. I was really young then and didn’t express myself well’ ‘I was young, didn’t have enough sense and because it was a difficult period, and I made these mistakes due to the situations I was facing at that point in time.

He has already apologized to the public and I just hope these haters would stop making his life more miserable. No one deserves this and people should just learn to forgive. For Pete’s sake, it happened 4 years ago and they could just have to understand what he went through after all those years. He was still a kid back then and feeling so down and pissed about what happened to him is normal. He’s still a person anyway and has feelings too. Some people should know that and don’t be too narrow-minded. Those kinds of people only want to bring one’s dream to be shuttered. They rejoice putting one person down. Those kinds of people should be the one left not forgiven. I’ll pray for Jae’s happiness and hopes that he’ll overcome all these unpleasant things that have happened to him.
