Tweets from the CEO of Sidus HQ Entertainment, Jung Hoon Tak, swearing at JYP Entertainment's producer Park Jin Young, have become the center of a heated controversy. On December 10th, CEO Jung left two short but very direct messages for Park Jin Young. In the first, he uploaded a picture of JYP along with the initials for 'son of a b*tch.' The director then posted a second picture of Park Jin Young with the short-form to the swear words, 'f***ing a**hole'. The message went on to state, "Until when are you going to continue living like that?" CEO Jung's tweets are speculated to have sourced from Park Jin Young's comments about Park Jaebeom - 2PM's former leader who is now signed under Sidus HQ - during his appearance on KBS 2TV's "Win Win". The producer apparently implied that Park Jaebeom had truly made a mistake. According to the audience members who were present during the recording, Park Jin Young made the following statement regarding Park Jaebeom's withdrawal: "What our company revealed is the truth. We have already told the truth so we have nothing more to say." On December 10th, Park Jin Young formally apologized via JYP Entertainment's official homepage:
"Hello. It's been a while since I personally wrote a message like this. I've decided to write one because of my upset feelings. During a TV recording, conversation shifted to the problem of 2PM's member change that had taken place earlier this year. I tried to avoid answering it, but I did say a few things regarding my thoughts on the issue. I had already asked them to avoid asking such things before the recording so I thought it would be okay, but they asked so suddenly, so I was a bit surprised. I requested once more to delete the segment, but it seems as if those at the set have already spread an exaggerated rumor of what happened. I would like to apologize for bringing up a story that has caused so many pain to so many people. Everything should come to a beautiful end, so it is upsetting that I must write a message like this. I'll be making sure to greet all of you with a more careful stance."Netizens said, "Park Jin Young, we can never believe anything you say about Park Jaebeom," "Do not mess with Park Jaebeom," and "He's the one that threw him away, why is he still talking about him?" After JYP's apology, CEO Jung tweeted again, "I was thoughtless.. TT "The biggest form of punishment is silence. No matter what he says, you should never speak of him, train him, teach him, or converse about anything with him. It's a punishment that makes him become someone that does not even exist."
