After all that has happened, there was some temporary joy for Hottests after Jaebeom apparently left a message on 21st September at 6.07pm (KST), on 2PM's Official Daum Cafe. But that joy soon turned to doubt when some Hottests tracked down the ip address and it was discovered that it originated from a computer in Korea, not Seattle. The majority of Hottests are speculating that someone from within JYP Entertainment might be trying to pull a fast one on the fans, by impersonating Jaebeom, to allay fans' worries and stop the ongoing boycott of 2PM. Others felt that, this might be really a message by Jaebeom and JYPE was just posting it on his behalf. At this juncture, it's really hard to believe anyone, unless Jaebeom speaks personally. Jaebeom's (?) message

Everybody..... I had a reason to leave...... JYP hyung and 2PM members are like family to me..... They stayed by my side in a tough situation like this..... I'm already having a hard time..... Don't make this even harder for me please..... I'm very sorry to make you guys worry so much....

"???? ???? ? ?? ??. ?????? ???? ???? ?? ??? ?? ????? ?? ??? ??? ?? ?????? ?? ??? ??"? ???. translation: right after jay's statement was posted, 2pm fans said it was fake because it "does not sound like the way he has always talked", and said that they doubt jay posted it himself. about this, someone from jype answered that "we have checked and jay wrote this himself. we know that in seattle he has been reading up on all of the news and everything happening in korea through the internet, and he has been feeling very upset about all of it." --- in regards to the IP address issue, this is my take: since jype has verified that this isn't a statement from some third party, i think either one of two things are true, even though the IP may be from korea: either this is really what jay feels and someone wrote it for him and posted it for him IN KOREA OR jype wrote this without consulting with jay and posted it under his name. - notmysteez @ 2ONEDAY forums
