2NE1 member PARK BOM has drawn backlash from fans for continuing a controversy.
The 2NE1 Fan Association released an official statement on February 15 and stated, “We officially demand PARK BOM‘s exclusion from all activities within 2NE1.“
The fan association stated, “The controversy surrounding PARK BOM on social media issues, her insincere attitude on tour, and her insincere behaviors on stage that are difficult to understand based on health reasons. We have decided that we can no longer watch all of these situations,” and emphasized, “It is a mistake once, but a series of unexpected actions deceive 2NE1 members and fans who have been waiting for over 10 years.”
“PARK BOM‘s unexpected behavior, which only she knows, has a negative impact on the group’s reputation. We can no longer watch PARK BOM‘s behavior, which is like a time bomb,” they stated.
The fan association stated, “We also apologize to the actors and fans affected by PARK BOM,” adding, “We believe that continuing with PARK BOM is also a huge loss to the group, so we demand her exclusion from activities.”
Earlier, PARK BOM recently opened a second SNS account, posted a photo of Lee Minho, and confidently expressed her special affection by saying, “My husband.” In September last year, she uploaded a photo of Lee Minho, saying, “My sincere husband,” creating a “rumor,” so that the second post accentuated this “rumor” attracting more attention.
However, PARK BOM didn’t stop there, posting photos of Lee Minho one after another, adding “My husband is right” and heart-shaped emoticons.
The agency is also in a difficult situation. “PARK BOM is a big fan of Lee Minho. She posted the photo out of concern for the fans,” a D-NATION official told Xports News, but has yet to elaborate on her continued actions.
PARK BOM‘s fans also complained on the second account, saying, “Stop now, eonni,” “Apologize to Lee Minho,” “Park Bom, please stop,” and “I wish the company would save the account.” Additionally, 2NE1 fans are also angry at PARK BOM‘s decision, which is causing controversy ahead of the tour and encore in Seoul.
