Jay Park's Profile.
Jay Park is an American b-boy, dancer, Korean American singer, rapper, songwriter, composer and actor.
Stage/English Name: Jay Park Korean Name: Park Jae Beom (박재범) Birthday: April 25, 1987 (age 24) Birthplace: Seattle, Washington, U.S. Blood Type: A Height: 170cm Weight: 60kg Education: Dankook University Hobbies: Basketball, listening music Favorite Artists: Eminem, Usher, Musiq Soulchild, Drake Favorite Rapper: Method Man
He was a former member and leader of South Korean boyband 2PM, and is part of Seattle-based b-boy crew Art of Movement.
Jay Park, after a successful audition for JYP Entertainment in the U.S, moved to Korea and signed with the company as a rapper and b-boy trainee.
He was scouted personally by JYP Entertainment and was trained to improve his singing and also his Korean for four years before debuting as a leader in 2PM with the stage name Jaebeom. He was originally supposed to debut as a solo idol however the company changed the plan at the last minutes as he was needed to be a leader in one of group under same company.
On 9th July 2007, Jay and Ye Eun(Wonder Girls) were feat. in a song of Seoul's Sad Song OST.

On 27th May 2009, Jay Park was feat. in one of the tracks in V.O.S's Routine Free.
To Luv... (feat. Jaebeom)
On September 4, 2009, an internet controversy surfaced regarding him. The articles talk about posts on his personal Myspace back in 2005 about his dislike for Korea when he was still a trainee for JYP Entertainment.
The comments, written in English to a friend, were misinterpreted and mistranslated by Korean media, quickly spreading across hundreds of news articles.
Although he issued an apology, protesters demanded that he had to withdrawal from 2PM. Four days later in September 8, he announced on his official fansite that he would leave the group and return to the United States.
After Park returned to the United States, fans changed their perspective on the matter when they realised that his MySpace messages had been badly mistranslated and taken out of context. Several protests and projects were immediately put into action, designed to inform JYP Entertainment and the general public about the huge support for Park's return to 2PM.
On February 25, 2010, JYPE announced that they had permanently terminated Park’s contract with collective agreement among the other 6 members of 2PM.
The company claimed a moral, but not illegal, personal “mistake” he did in December of the previous year. No other explanation was offered, despite multiple reassurances given by JYPE on his status in 2PM during the period between December and this announcement, including the publicity for the group’s first full-length album 1:59PM which asserted to the public and their fans that a 2PM without Mr. Park was incomplete.
A conference that JYPE held two days after the announcement later for 87 representatives from major 2PM fan communities reaffirmed the company and members’ collective decision to continue 2PM with six members but failed to provide any further justification behind the dismissal of Park, the group’s leader.
Beginning in November of 2009, eagle-eyed fans found and spread footage of b-boying battles that he had attended and participated in uploaded on Youtube, despite his initial efforts to cover his face from the view of cameras.
On March 6, 2010, Jaebeom and the Art of Movement crew participated in the charity event "Breakin' 4 Haiti", with the proceeds going to Haiti victims.
On March 15, 2010, Park created his own YouTube channel. His first post was a video where he sings a rendition of "Nothin' On You" (with his own rap and lyrics) in his bathroom.
On his 'About Me' page, Park left a message thanking his fans for their support. He also encouraged fans not to hate remaining 2PM members on his behalf.
On March 29, 2010, Rutgers Korean Student Association announced on their website that Park and fellow Art of Movement members Dialtone, ChaCha and Junior would appear as surprise special guests at an annual Korean American festival event called Project Korea III: KSA Cinderella Story at Rutgers University, New Jersey on April 3, 2010.
Merely hours after the festival finished, several videos of the event were uploaded onto internet portal sites, where footage of Park acting as an MC and dancing to Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" on stage drew much positive interest.
On April 14, an associate involved in the production of American dance film Hype Nation confirmed that Park had been cast as the movie's main character. Filming is set to begin in June 2010, with more than 70% of the scenes to be shot in South Korea. It was stated that Park will also contribute to the original soundtrack.
