Because of the overwhelming response from bidders, 2PM's auction has been temporarily closed.
Through an online shopping mall (www.lotte.com), 2PM's stage outfits went up for a charity auction. This auction started on the 23rd but has now been temporarily closed, due to the immense bids the outfits were receiving.
On the 26th, Newsen had a phone conversation with an official who stated, "The auction bids are beyond one's imagination. Therefore, due to the overwhelming response the auction has been closed. It will be re-opened as soon as the bidding atmosphere calms down."
The reason for closing the auction was due to the insane figures. More specifically, because of Jaebeom's outfit, which was nearing $2 MILLION USD. Certain individuals were creating faulty accounts to intentionally raise the auction values of the outfit.
Another official for the Lotte website stated, "This was all for a good cause for the needy animals, but because of a few netizens who went overboard, I feel sorry for the victims. In the future, we will make sure that this will not happen again when the items go back up for auction."
I understand how fans are feeling, but such acts as these are absolutely unacceptable, especially when it's for a great cause to help out needy animals - It's rather shameful and unfortunate.
