The controversy over misogyny is not enough for K-pop. Male solo Singer Jessie J (Jae, real name Park Jae-hyung) was criticized for his vulgar remarks toward his fellow solo Singer Jamie (Jamie, real name Park Ji-min).
Jessie J then continued her unusual remarks, with a loud laugh, lying down for a while, when fans said they would let Jamie know, "I'm joking. Jamie is good at music, "he said." Jamie would be so angry when he sees this video. It's not like Jamie isn't watching this video. Jamie is my close Friend. Jamie teases me, too - I'm going to say what I want to say," she said. On the morning of the 9th, he posted an article on his personal Twitter Inc. entitled "For the first time in a long time, I am content" (I am satisfied for the first time in a long time).
I dismissed Yi Gi as a problem-free joke, but the reaction was different. Jamie said on official Twitter Inc. on the afternoon of the 9th, "I'm just deleting it, I'm okay" (I just erase it, it's okay) and said, "I have that we are so women have to be subjected to mens summer to apply incels on the internet period" (I am a woman "I hate being exposed to male humour to soothe Incel in the Internet era," he said.
Incel is an 'involuntary celibate' (involuntary celibate) term for men who want to have a relationship with women but fail. Recently, it has been used as a word to refer to a misogynist. It is clear that Jessie J's self-proclaimed joke, which is more than a true and rude statement, was offended.
"I can say this, not K-pop (affiliated) anymore," the statement is also contradictory. Jessie J, who made her debut as a member of the K-pop band Day 6 (Day6) in 2015, voluntarily withdrew from the team on December 31, 2021 due to personal reasons and terminated her exclusive contract with JYP Entertainment, her agency. I have escaped the K-pop god that I hated so much, but it does not mean that I get the freedom to spit out the misogynistic expression such as 'thot' in the space where many unspecified people including the parties can see. The hate speech against a particular group is not 'something that can not be done because it is a K-pop Singer', but 'an act that should be avoided by a human Yi Gi with basic common sense and courtesy'.
It's not the first time Jessie J has been embroiled in controversy over her disparaging remarks. "If you first date a woman, of course you have to go to a burger shop," he said on a radio show in 2018. "You have to eat and react to a $ 5 meal to see if she deserves a $ 300 meal. If the first date didn't work out, the woman is not worth $300," she said.
In addition, Jessie J acted as if she were doing similar sexual acts to her opponent with her Game character in order to get Game goods to other Gamers on the Twitch.tv Game broadcast with her acquaintance last March. The act was laughed, calling it "Suga Daddy" - meaning a middle-aged man who aids young women in exchange for sexual activity. Jessie J took the attitude of not knowing what was wrong when fans asked her to apologise for inappropriate comments, before posting two apologys on Twitter Inc. The habitual repetition of women's demeanor and formal apology makes women doubt what way of thinking they usually look at women.
The unusual apology was also a pity: Jessie J apologized in English late on Tuesday afternoon after criticism from fans at home and abroad. The controversial point is that along with the apology, Jamie's Twitter Inc. account ID was added together. The two have been close Friends for many years as the same agency Singer and as a co-MC of the Arirang TV music program After School Club. Many fans pointed out that Jessie J's behavior, which seems to be trying to carry out her apology by exhibiting the account of the party, is very violent even though it is possible to contact and apologize directly.
The apology doesn't add up either back or forth: Jessie J said: "I want to apologise to Jamie and everyone for what I said. It was an inexcusable low-key remark and it hurts Jamie and makes him feel terrible, and he realized that what he thought was a Friendly joke was not. It was not written to underestimate Jamie's words and deeds, but to express an atmosphere often called "baddie" (Sen sister). I thought the two words were similar, but I do not make excuses. I sincerely apologize to Jamie and everyone who was hurt by my remarks. "
Jessie J was born in Argentina in 1992 and spent a significant period of school years at United States of America. The claim that he made a mistake because he thought that that and baddie were synonyms to Yi Gi, a fluent English-speaking member, is a cowardly excuse. Local fans also responded that the apology, which seems to be a false excuse, is absurd.
Jessie J recently disparaged K-pop industry and K-pop fellow Singers in a local interview with United States of America. It was a statement that it was difficult for Korean agency to over-censor their idols and deal with them like accessories.
Jessie J, who volunteered for SBS Survival 'K Pop Star' season 1, made her debut as K-pop band Day6 in 2015, and has accumulated a lot of recognition and fans' love for six years as a K-pop Singer. Nevertheless, the behavior of cutting off his roots by himself, and even making fellow Singer and misogynistic remarks is at the level of 'spitting on his back'.
