PS: Today, I finally received a warning not to bash Nikun. It was from a fellow reader at the book city, who said there was no need to bash Nikun so much. I don't know what to say, it's quite fresh! Hehe!
Thank you to Yongyuan Caidao, Ajie Xi, Tiexue Zhongguo Junren, Qianfu Nian de Mao, Lancheng Xunying, and Wangji Juzhong for your support!
I'm currently 11th on the new book list for signed authors on the homepage. Don't try to outdo me!
At 1 PM, Park Jiho finally woke up, having been awakened by hunger. He first made himself a bowl of instant noodles. Actually, Park Jiho's cooking skills are quite good; just from the fact that he raised Park Jiyeon to be a healthy, plump ten-year-old, you can guess that he has some culinary talent. However, Park Jiho doesn't like cooking and hasn't done so much since his release from prison. Even in prison, he only cooked when his master asked him to.
Three minutes later, he opened the instant noodles, and the smell of the noodles hit him. He then carried the noodles to his computer and checked if the song in his email had been viewed. After confirming that the email had been opened, Park Jiho smiled slightly.
Just as he was about to eat, he was stunned by the news on the homepage!
"2PM's Park Jaebeom's Anti-Korean Remarks Escalate, Korea's Three Major TV Stations Issue Joint Ban!" The huge news headline shocked Park Jiho, and he forgot about his noodles, immediately clicking on the news.
The content of the news shocked Park Jiho. It turned out that after Park Jaebeom's anti-Korean remarks in the morning, the anger of the Korean public had already led many to call this the second Lee Seung-jun incident. Here's a bit of background on the Lee Seung-jun incident:
When Lee Seung-jun's acting career was at its peak, he faced mandatory military service in Korea. He had clearly told his fans, "I will go to the military." However, he later broke his promise and chose to take American citizenship to avoid military service. This move sparked nationwide outrage, and the Korean government issued a ban, preventing him from entering Korean soil. When he applied for a work permit to enter Korea, he was intercepted by the military service authorities at Incheon Airport and not allowed to enter the country. Even when his grandmother passed away in Korea, he repeatedly petitioned and wrote letters, hoping to pay his respects at her grave, but the Korean government remained unmoved. The military service authorities still refused his entry, citing "desecration of social morals and damage to national interests."
This is the hatred Korea has for Lee Seung-jun. Now, Park Jaebeom being called the second Lee Seung-jun incident means that the Koreans have been enraged again! As the Korean public demanded that Park Jaebeom be removed from the show, the executives at JYP seemed to have lost their minds and announced that because the program had already been produced, it was impossible to remove Park Jaebeom from the already recorded episodes without the consent of the TV stations.
Therefore, to avoid suspicion, Korea's three major TV stations jointly issued a statement at noon, collectively banning Park Jaebeom. This left JYP completely stunned. They never expected that the three major TV stations would act so quickly and decisively, without even consulting them, leaving JYP in a completely passive position!
Just as Park Jiho was shocked by the news, in the 2PM dormitory at JYP, the seven members of 2PM saw the joint statement from the three major TV stations at the same time.
After reading it, Yoochun immediately shouted in a dazed and disoriented manner, "It's over, it's over, we're all finished! Being banned by the three major TV stations means we have no future. 2PM will become history, and we will be eliminated!"
"It can't be that bad. I think as long as Jaebeom sincerely apologizes, the public will forgive him. After all, those were words from four years ago. Who would remember words from four years ago?" Jooyong consoled.
Hearing Yoochun's words, Park Jaebeom also said sadly, "I'm sorry, I've dragged everyone down. I'm really sorry!" As he spoke, he bowed deeply, and his eyes quickly turned red.
At this moment, Hwang Chan-sung walked over to Yoochun and patted Park Jaebeom's shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, Captain. We are one, and I will always support you!"
Looking at Hwang Chan-sung, Park Jaebeom gave a grateful look. Soon, Jooyong also walked over to Park Jaebeom and said, "Right... We are one, and we will always support you."
Hearing these words, Yoochun showed a look of disdain, while Nikun, who had been silent, began to tremble with agitation. Just as Hwang Chan-sung and Jooyong declared their support for Park Jaebeom, Nikun suddenly burst out. He grabbed a crystal ornament from the table and smashed it on the ground, shattering it. Then, like a madman, he pointed at Hwang Chan-sung and the others and shouted, "Are you all idiots? Or are you brain-dead? We've already been banned by the three major TV stations because of this trash. Do you know what that means? It means all our efforts over the years will be in vain, and we will have nothing left. Now, you idiots still want to stick with this trash? Are your brains being eaten by pigs, or have you turned into pigs?"
"What we need to do now is immediately kick Park Jaebeom out of 2PM. Only then can he not ruin us, and only then can we be saved!"
Just as Nikun was about to continue, Hwang Chan-sung shouted, "Nikun, that's enough! How can you say such things? Weren't you always the best friend to the Captain? He even wrote songs for you. How can you kick him when he's down now?"
"I think Nikun is right. If we sacrifice Park Jaebeom, we can all survive. Park Jaebeom did say the wrong things, and he should be punished, but we are innocent. Park Jaebeom, if you have any conscience, you should leave on your own!" Yoochun said harshly.
Then, Kim Jun-su and Lee Jun-ho also spoke up, "That's right. Park Jaebeom brought this upon himself, but we are innocent. We have done nothing wrong. If you still have any loyalty to the group and consider yourself the captain of 2PM, you should leave on your own. Don't ruin all of us because of you!"
"Jun-ho, Jun-su...!" Hwang Chan-sung looked at his good brothers in disbelief. He couldn't understand why the brothers who had once promised to stick together were now saying such heartless words, especially at a time when one of their brothers was in the most pain, not offering any comfort but forcing him to leave the group they considered their life.
Suddenly, when Hwang Chan-sung looked up at the others he once considered brothers, he realized with a sense of powerlessness that they all wore thick masks, masks that hid their faces completely.
At this moment, Nikun's voice rose again, and this time, with the support of the majority, his tone became even more forceful, "Park Jaebeom, let's part ways amicably. If you know what's good for you, we will give you face. I won't tell the teacher (Park Jin-young) about your mess with your female fans at the nightclub. But if you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for being ruthless. We will expose all your dirty deeds, and then you won't just be a public enemy. You might even face legal trouble!"
"You...!" Seeing the brother who was once closest to him trying to drive him into a corner, Park Jaebeom had no words left. He coldly said, "You and Yoochun also played with my female fans!"
But Nikun laughed and said, "Unfortunately, no Korean will believe the words of a traitor. Yoochun and I did play with our own female fans, but so what? Our image is positive, and the words of a traitor like you, which do you think the Korean public will believe? Park Jaebeom, this is your last warning. Either leave 2PM on your own, or wait for the police to take you away from 2PM!"
