Jaebum (aka Jay Park), former leader of K-pop boy band 2PM, has once again proved his immense popularity six months after he withdrew from K-pop boy band 2PM.
The video shows Jaebum singing a cover version of “Nothing on You”--a hit song by American rapper B.o.B --acapella inside a bathroom. It was Jaebum himself who posted the video on March 16 (March 15 in Seattle, Washington where he is now based).
This is the first time that fans have heard and seen Jaebum after he got embroiled in controversy over a racial slur he allegedly made against Koreans on Myspace. He has since left South Korea and is back in Seattle.
As of this writing, the video continues to draw subscribers and comments.
On his YouTube channel, Jaebum wrote his appreciation to the fans for their support.
“I'd like to thank all the fans that have been so nice to me, my family, my crew, thank you so much for all your love and support. I created this YouTube account so i can post up videos of just covers and whatever and you guys could watch so yeah check it out,” he said.
Fans have been longing for updates about Jaebum especially when JYP Entertainment and the remaining members of 2PM permanently ousted him from the boy band last February 25.
Jaebum’s expulsion from the group has divided fans and turned thousand of them into “antifans.”
More than 80 2PM fan sites have since closed as a sign of protest against the remaining members and their management.
The YouTube video has drawn thousands of positive comments from fans. Most commented that they missed Jaebum and expressed their undying love and support for him.
“I’m so happy to see you right now, I can’t stop crying. I’m your biggest Swedish fan,” one fan commented.
“(You’re) still so wonderful. (This) brought a smile to my day.”
“You have a really amazing voice. You did a great job with that song.”
“Keep fighting park Jaebum. I'm always here to support you whatever problems you will encounter. Don't lose hope.”
“Please come back! Please!”
“Thank you for coming back to us... you are truly missed and all of us fans will cheer you on till the end! Jay Park fighting!”
“There are so many people who support you and miss you here. I’m very glad you are not in 2PM anymore.”
“Nobody will ever replace you. You really are one of a kind.”
“Oppa, we missed you so much!! It’s so good to hear your voice again. Great cover, I love this song.”
