JYPE’s current status as a ‘Big 3′ company?

In life, there are things that are usually more popular than others. People, events and even trends. In the music industry, this happens quite often with idols and artists being more successful than others and their companies given the spotlight too. In K-Pop, I think it’s the opposite where most fans focus upon the label of where the idols came from. The Big 3 companies (SM, JYP and YG) are an example of this being the most popular music labels in Korea.

After reading this article, I’ve noticed JYPE in the last few years has been in the decline. It used to be my favourite label of idols but 2PM and Wonder Girls are the only groups I like. Even these groups are slowly becoming irrelevant and the fault is in JYP and the company. Home to creating stars such as Rain, Wonder Girls and g.o.d, it looks like JYP may lose its reputation as a Big 3 company to other competitors. Well, at least that’s the way I see it.

2PM & Jay Park Fanfiction Recommendations

Honestly, I didn’t know what kind of post to do for 12/12/12. But when I thought about it, Good idol fanfiction is scarce these days. The more I try and look for well-written fics, the more I come across the opposite. In the past, the only idol fanfics I would read would be DBSK for a few months. The only fanfic at the time I read on Winglin which is good (but honestly needs improving now after looking at it after 2 and a half years) is called Right Next to You. Nowadays (or for the past 3 years), it’s been 2PM and Jay Park fics.

2PM’s 2nd anniversary!

Make sure to tweet #2yearspm on Twitter ^_^
Happy 2nd anniversary, my chocolate covered shower-rubbing wild bunny-crazy guys! May you have a better year from Sep 4th 2010 to Sep 4th 2011 as you need to go backwards in your popularity, music (Without U wasn’t good) and start all over again from all the troubles from the past year.

It’s also been a year since Jay’s Myspace Incident broke off from an (and I presume) angry Wooyoung fan but let’s not get into that because I am a Hottest Jaywalker and I don’t want to create any trouble.

So the question for this post is: When did you start liking 2PM and why? And who is your favourite member?

For me, I found them in May 2009 after looking for a new group and choose them because I didn’t know anything about them. Jaebeom was my first favourite, then Nichkhun but when I started getting to like the group more, my favourite became Junsu. I love how honest and fan-serving they are; touching each other, showering together, talking about porn like it’s nothing to be afraid. I will still support them and Jay despite what terrible things have happened this year.

Think I’ll go on a spaz of pictures now.

What do you care more for this year, is it…

…for Dong Bang Shin Ki to not breakup this year and have another successful comeback until now or…

…for 2PM Jaebeom to comeback to Korea so 2PM can be 7 again and comeback in April together?
