Korean netizens just make me wanna puke sometimes. I'm sorry if this is a bad start to what is going to lead to a whole essay, but I am simply stating the truth. I am sure by now almost everyone who is a K-Popper is aware of the controversy between idols and netizens. Let me get straight to the point, and by that, I mean let's go to the beginning. No, you dont have to go back to the Big Bang, or the day you were born, but rather, on September 5th.
2PM's leader Park Jae Bum has sparked outrage and anger among Korean fans all because of his myspace comments. Fine, I can understand that he may have sounded quite harsh and conceited, but get this, THE COMMENTS WERE DATED 2005-2007! If you have brains and something called common sense and maybe something called a calendar, you would know that this is the year 2009. TWO THOUSAND NINE. What does this mean? This means that those comments were IN THE PAST.
You know, there is something called 'change' and 'adaptation'. My dear readers, let me tell you, when I first moved in 2005, I freaking hated everything about Woodlands. I hated my school, I hated not having my old friends, I hated EVERYTHING. I would go to school everyday and just stare, occasionally cursing this Australian guy called Jeremy because he was annoying, and I would go home and train. I thought that working harder would get me out of that school. But hell no, I stayed put. So I changed my tactic, I forced myself to adapt. I forced myself to like Woodlands, and here I am now,a good four years later, perfectly fine. So Koreans, why don't you try to put yourselves in Jae Bum's shoes for once? And to Korean-Americans, why can't you empathize? Didn't you go through the same process? sure, Jae Bum may have made it public that he hated Korea, but didn't he apologize? And he didn't say sorry once, hell no, he said it four times. And I'm sure in his heart he's very apologetic. He was immature at the time he wrote those comments, and obviously, he has changed.
So Koreans, are you willing to forget all those particularly choice Again&Again performances, those amazing acrobatics, all those quirky comments made my them, just because of a few worthless comments? Judging from how you are reacting now, I don't think so. As a human, you have to attempt to rationalize the dichotomy between personal emotions and reality. You have to LET GO.
Okay, you Koreans love 2NE1 right? So, why can't you act like YOU DON'T CARE? Just for once, can't you people not overreact like a bunch of immature, senseless kids? Why can't you guys close one eye and FORGIVE AND FORGET? Hell, you even bashed Woo Young's cyworld just because he wanted to support his fellow member? Isn't the saying "One for all, all for one" known worldwide? Heck, even me and my friends use it as our motto. If one falls, the rest would be there to be a support.
I'm sorry if I sound very harsh and rude, there's only so much a fourteen-year old adolescent could say. Unlike you Koreans, I was brought up to look at reality in different points of view. I am not attacking the Koreans, I am just very unhappy with their actions. I seriously find writing a petition to stop 2PM's activities and kicking Jae Bum out of a reality program too over-the-top. Hey, G-Dragon has done worse things. He said "Shit" on TV, and did ya remember the "I Love Sex?" badges? So why aren't you stopping Big Bang's activities? Not that I want you to, I'm just pointing out an example. Trust me, don't waste your time. Go support DBSK instead.
