In the K-pop music scene, Park Jae-bum is definitely a very special presence.
As the captain of JYP's Love Bean Boy Band 2PM, he has won word of mouth and applause in the Korean hip-hop music circle after his later independent breakout.
Not only does it own two large hip-hop labels, but Park Jae-bum's business scope has also expanded to many fields such as fashion and shochu brand building.
However, in a variety show before, he publicly stated that he would "retire after two years" also attracted the attention of a large number of fans.
So what is the most taboo thing for such an excellent independent musician who has been born as the president of the label Park Jae-bum?
Park Jae-bum, who recently starred in an online variety show, said that his parents are now very strict with him. Not only did each trip have to be personally confirmed with the assistants, but Park Jae-bum was not allowed to continue tattooing.
Regarding tattoos, Park Jae-bum, a hip-hop artist, has always had his own pursuits.
Previously, he thought tattoos were a cultural phenomenon. And every tattoo on his body represents a story of his.
As a result, as his fame and popularity in hip-hop circles grew louder, Park Jae-bum found that the number of tattoos on his body became more and more numerous.
。 In order to respect his parents, Park Jae-bum also promised them not to continue tattooing in the future.
In addition, Park Jae-bum's plans after his retirement have been confirmed again. Because Park Jae-bum himself said that after "quitting" the hip-hop circle in the future, his biggest possibility is to become a bean maker.
With his experience of being selected by JYP and training in the company for so long, Park Jae-bum believes that he can cultivate a very good love bean combination.
Because he himself has publicly stated that there are many unreasonable factors for Korean performing arts companies to target trainees.
As a person who has come over, Park Jae-bum hopes to change some unreasonable industry rules in the Korean entertainment industry through his own efforts.
For example, as a JYP-born entertainer, he was the first person to publicly say that he had been physically punished by a dance teacher from the company.
In a radio show, Park Jae-bum recalled the situation and said: "Because I grew up in the United States, I was shocked when I first came into contact with the corporal punishment culture of Korean performing arts companies. I think it's a very inhumane act. ”
In terms of the independence of artists, even Aidou, a subsidiary of a large performing arts company, has not yet escaped from traditional concepts. More often, the packaging, music, dance, and human design of the Aidou group are tailored to them by the company.
But over time, there will be many similar styles of bean groups on the market. This brings irrationality to normal industry competition.
In the end, only a very small number of bean-loving groups can become the mainstream of the market, and most of them are victims of the company's bad planning.
It seems that whether as a singer or a producer, Park Jae-bum has fully realized what kind of route he wants to take in the future.
In a sense, Park Jae-bum's above claims do make sense. And some of the industry drawbacks he pointed out do exist.
It's just that the development model of Korean pop music has been industrialized, and what kind of changes and innovations can the changes referred to by Park Jae-bum bring to the entire industry? Let's wait and see!
