2PM's former leader Jaebeom, otherwise known as Jay Park of Art of Movement (AOM), has made quite an impact to the K-pop scene through a single clip of video he posted via Youtube. Although, to a passerby, it may seem no different than any other covers around, Jaebeom's Nothin' on You received titles as the Most Subscribed of the Month (now at #2), Most Viewed Video of the Week and more, after five days of its emergence on Youtube. Of course, there is no doubt that the video has caught the attention of media in U.S. as well. On March 18th, a prominent media source, Digital Media Wire (commonly known as DMW) featured Jay Park himself through an article entitled, "Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, MySpace and the Story of Jay Park (AKA Jaebeom Park)." As the title suggests, the article narrated the ups and downs that Jaebeom has gone through. Through the entry, the author expressed,
"I think this is just the beginning for Jay Park. If any Asian artist can make the difficult "crossover" to the American music entertainment market, I think he could be the one. He already has a big international fan base, and he is living proof of the power of social media."Many fans probably couldn't agree more with the author's comments in regards to the potential and power Jaebeom has in the U.S. market. In fact, many netizens have already begun to form petitions to help Jaebeom make his debut in America (as they no longer want him to return as a 2PM member). With all of the time that he's been getting in the limelight, it wouldn't be shocking to see Jaebeom on the American stage sometime in the future. With the hope of seeing him soon on stage rather than in his bathroom, we wish Jay Park the best of luck in his career.
