261027 | [INTERVIEW ②] #GOT7’s #JAYB on past SNS controversies: “I should have been more aware of my position… The person I was back then is dead” GOT7 member JAY B looked back on his past actions, acknowledging that he had been careless. In the past, JAY B had been involved in several controversies, including an incident in which inappropriate photos were exposed during an SNS livestream and the disclosure of DMs he had sent to women. Some also pointed out that, despite his sincerity toward GOT7’s group activities, the controversies that arose in his private life had disappointed his fans. Speaking about the controversies surrounding his past private SNS, he said, “I think I was careless back then. I really feel that I should have been more mindful of my responsibility toward myself.” “Actually, when I’m not promoting, I don’t really think of myself as a celebrity. For example, it’s the same when I walk around the streets of Hapjeong. Ever since I was young, I’ve never really thought, ‘I’m a celebrity.’ If anything, I tried to behave like I was nobody, but I’ve come to realize that I should have lived with a certain awareness of my position. I’ve reflected on it a lot, too. I fully recognize the responsibility I bear.” He revealed that he also felt deeply sorry toward his fans because of these controversies. “Even when I was at JYPE, things like that never happened. Back then, all I thought about was working hard on my activities, but at some point, I think something went wrong with me. Realizing that made me feel that I needed to give more back to my fans.” In particular, he emphasized that, regarding his past self, “The person I was back then is dead,” drawing laughter. He also offered a request mixed with humor to fans who had recently started following him. “I find it fascinating that people have newly come to like me. I wonder what part of me they saw that made them like me. I’m so grateful. Just please don’t dig too deeply into the past,” drawing more laughter. He also shared a heartfelt message for the fans who had supported him for a long time. “To my longtime fans, I want to say, ‘Thank you for being my friend.’ To those who have only recently gotten to know me, I want to say, ‘Thank you in advance for becoming my friend from now on.’ My fans feel like friends I can be comfortable with.” 🔗 m.etoday.co.kr/news/view/264… 🔗 naver.me/GcAXtW97

👤 we talked about it earlier, but shout out to your crew GOT7. you have a brotherhood with your guys. and i’ve seen a lot of praise for the work you’ve put in to keep your group unified. balancing that, holding them down, and even balancing (your career) as a solo artist is a lot of work. how do you find that mind frame (mindset) to do all that? 🌴 it is so hard. always hard. but as i get older, i think i’m becoming more at ease. slowly, little by little, i try to have a positive mind(set) and believe that everything will work out fine #JAYB #제이비 @defjaybkr #GOT7
