Who Said Anything Abt. Lee Soo Man? JYJ Song Ban by KBS Provokes Outrage

By banning JYJ’s song Pierrot, has KBS become a shill for SM Entertainment?  Before they could successfully rehabilitate their image for the whole Jeju Island/ambassador concert debacle, KBS seem to be looking for reasons not to have to deal with JYJ.  

At the end of September, KBS stamped JYJ’s Pierrot, written by member Jaejoong, as inappropriate while claiming the song contains a slur against Lee Soo Man.  Lee Soo Man is the (former?) head of the dreaded SM Entertainment (SM), the company with which JYJ are currently involved in  a lawsuit.

KBS made the interpretation that a lyric in the song was referring to “President Soo Man” and deemed it a personal attack on a specific individual.   In the song, there is reference to the letters “P.S.M.”.  There is no mention at all of Lee Soo Man’s name, and no personal threats to the any employee of SM.

C-Jes, JYJ Pissed at Fake Fans Behavior

Oh snap!  C-Jes, the agency managing JYJ, has issued a statement aimed directly at a-holes who are spreading rumors and making malicious attacks against the group all while proclaiming themselves to be “fans”.

C-Jes says it has already “secured evidences” against some people who are attacking JYJ and have issued individual warnings towards some of those who were caught.

This situation(s) must be very serious because the company wants the public to know they will be submitting evidence to the Cyber Terror Response Center, and will be officially requesting police investigations.  

SM is the Root Cause of JYJ`s Problem

In my observations of all the controversy happening between JYJ, other broadcasters and other companies, I can only come to the conclusion that SM is root cause for it.  

The controversy at its onset with JYJ could have been fixed very early on if that damn company wasn’t so stubborn. A few small concessions, and none of this may ever have happened.

JYJ was never asking for the moon to begin with. But SM will fight to the death to keep JYJ from being successful if they can because they want to make an example of these three for speaking out.

SM’s problem is that they cannot control JYJ’s talent or the way fans have rallied around them. The more problems SM creates for JYJ (whether its under the table or not) the more people feel like protecting them.  

If JYJ was thwarted twice or three times in their attempts to be part of things like promos for their dramas, you could probably write it off.  But repeatedly? Time after time after time?

JYJ’s Classy Response to Cancellation of their N7Wonders appearance #JejuwithJYJ #JYJwithJEJU

Earlier today, JYJ’s CJeS Entertainment announced they have received word that their appearance on a special broadcast show to promote Jeju Island as one of the new 7 Wonders has been canceled.

They are also honorary ambassadors to Jeju’s 7 Wonders and the show was supposed to be broadcast by KBS.  Despite that, JYJ’s Jaejoong posted a selfless and almost too forgiving response to the latest news.

Further expressing how their entire participation was about the promotion of their native country and not about themselves, Jaejoong tweeted:

“If there’s an obstacle in the way blocking the promotion of our country’s natural landscape then I’ll just promote it myself.”

He then changed his Twitter photo to a picture of Jeju Island.  To another Twitter user, he tweeted:

“@gentlechan If 100,000 people tweet a picture of Jeju Island, won’t at least 20 million people learn of it?”

His first instinct is not to complain but instead to figure out how to contribute to the promotion of his homeland in whichever way possible irrespective of some hateful and pathetic “elders” (my thoughts, not Jaejoong’s) trying to stop the trio from doing anything unless they are under the thumb of SM Entertainment.  That goes double for those who are causing problems for JYJ because they’re too scared to get on SM’s bad side.
