Jay Park (Korean name: Park Jaebeom; Hangul: 박재범; Hanja: 朴載範, born April 25, 1987) is an American singer, dancer, rapper, b-boy, music producer, songwriter, model, choreographer, and actor of South Korean descent, and a member of the Seattle-based b-boy crew, Art of Movement (AOM).[1] As Park grew up as a b-boy and dancer, he has become well known for these skills, as well as his charismatic performances and great stage presence.[2][3] Park was described as a "born entertainer" by legendary Korean pop singer, Patti Kim,[4] and The New York Times quoted the president of digital music distributor, DFSB Kollective, describing Park as "not just an artist, but also his own PR agent, fan club president, and TV network."[5]

Park initially rose to fame as the leader of South Korean boy band, 2PM, formed by record label JYP Entertainment in 2008, having previously been a trainee for four years.[6] In September 2009, Park returned home to Seattle after comments he wrote about Korea in 2005 as a teenager were leaked by a netizen who hacked his Myspace account, and were taken out of context and misinterpreted by the Korean media; Park officially left the group in early 2010.[7] In March 2010, Park uploaded a cover video of B.o.B's hit "Nothin' on You", with his own rap and lyrics, to YouTube,[8] which went viral and reached over 2,000,000 views in less than 24 hours,[9] leading to the release of Park's first EP, Count on Me (Korean: 믿어줄래; Revised Romanization: Mideojullae) in July 2010, which debuted at number one on the Gaon chart.[10] Park returned to South Korea in June 2010 for the filming of Hype Nation,[11] while being represented by Digital Media Wire's CEO and entertainment attorney Ned Sherman,[12] and in July 2010, Park signed a contract with SidusHQ, one of the largest agencies in South Korea, re-debuting as a solo singer and an actor.[13]

Park's first mini album, Take a Deeper Look, released in 2011, went multi-platinum in South Korea. Park became the first ever artist crowned winner on a debut stage by winning on KBS' Music Bank with "Abandoned",[14] and was the only solo artist to win "Record of the Year" at the 2011 Golden Disk Awards, dubbed the Korean Grammys.[15] Later in 2011, Park released singles "Demon", "Girlfriend", and "Star", co-starred in the Korean movie, Mr. Idol, and joined the cast of KBS' Immortal Song 2.[16] At the end of 2011, Park released an EP, New Breed Part 1; the precursor to Park's first full-length album.

In February 2012, Park released his first full-length album, New Breed, quickly topping charts in South Korea and internationally, and went multi-platinum in less than a week.[17] Park also released an English mixtape, Fresh Air: Breathe It, which became the first mixtape by an Asian artist to have gold status by surpassing 100,000 downloads on DatPiff.[18] Following the release of New Breed in 2012, Park successfully held his first solo concert in Seoul, as well as embarking on tours around Asia and Australia. Park headlined the Verizon APAHM Tour in the USA, and was the closing act at MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2012. Also in 2012, Park returned to KBS' Immortal Song 2, became a fixed panel member on MBC's Come to Play, and hosted tvN's Saturday Night Live Korea.[19] Park became a permanent cast member of Saturday Night Live Korea in early 2013.[20]

Biography

Early years

Born in Edmonds, Washington, in the Seattle area, Park showed great interest in hip hop music and breakdancing at a young age. Park attended Edmonds Woodway High School, where he spent most of his break and lunch times practicing dance with friends instead of focusing on his school-work.[21][22] Park started listening to hip hop and rap music in his early teens, and spent time learning and writing raps himself during high school.[23] In 2003, Park became one of the first members of newly founded Seattle-based b-boy crew, Art of Movement (AOM). In 2004, Park's mother, seeing how her son spent more time breakdancing than studying, suggested he audition for Korea-based JYP Entertainment, which brought him to Korea in January 2005, to receive further training in dancing, rapping, singing, and the Korean language.[24] Park has stated he couldn't converse with all the new people he met, due to not being able to speak the language very well, and he didn't know what to eat. Park says he cried everyday for the first two weeks he was in Korea, but decided to work hard even though he wanted to go back home, to not disappoint his parents.[25]

2008–2009: 2PM

2PM during a press conference for Wonder Girls The First Wonder Live In Bangkok in February 2009

Park first appeared through Mnet's Hot Blood Men, a documentary-style reality program that showed the future members of One Day, split as idol groups 2AM and 2PM, in training. Park, finishing at top spot with the most fan votes, became the leader of 2PM.[6] On September 4, 2008, 2PM debuted with the song "10 Out of 10" (Korean: 10점 만점에 10점; Revised Romanization: Ship Jeom Manjeome Ship Jeom) on music program M! Countdown after the release of their first mini-album, Hottest Time of the Day, a few days prior.[26] Aside from 2PM's music activities, Park created the song "Jeong" (Korean: 正) with Yeeun of the Wonder Girls for the original soundtrack of the television drama Conspiracy in the Court, and featured on V.O.S's "To Luv...".[27] He also participated in special stage performances, such as Navi's "Heart Damage" (Korean: 마음이 다쳐서; Revised Romanization: Maeumi Dachyeoseo) on May 3, 2009,[28] and K.Will's "One Drop per Second" (Korean: 1초에 한방울; Revised Romanization: Il Choe Hanbangul) on June 20, 2009.[29] In addition to Idol Show and Wild Bunny with fellow 2PM members, he also became a regular cast member in several variety programs, including Star King and Introducing a Star's Friend.[30] In August 2009, he and Kara band member, Nicole Jung, became the new hosts for a cultural variety show called Nodaji.[31]

On September 4, 2009, unfavorable comments towards Korea were found on Park’s personal Myspace account from 2005. The comments, written in English to a friend, were translated by Korean media, quickly spreading across hundreds of news articles. Park expressed deep remorse and shame over his forgotten words and issued an official apology, explained the unhappiness that he experienced during his early days as a trainee in an unfamiliar country where he lacked family, the ability to easily communicate, and an understanding of the culture.[32] Although outraged protesters demanded that Park should be removed from 2PM, JYP Entertainment's CEO, Park Jin-young, stated on September 7, 2009, that he was going to continue as a part of the group.[33] The following day, Park announced on his official fancafe that he would be leaving the group to calm the situation and return to his hometown, Seattle, Washington. He also apologized to the other 2PM members, and promised that he would "come back a better person".[7] However, Park Jin-young suddenly confirmed that 2PM would continue as a 6-member group.[34] Additionally, due to the sensitive topic of Park's departure, all 2PM members were withdrawn from their regular appearances on variety shows,[35] and the final episode of their reality show, Wild Bunny, was postponed indefinitely.[36] Park's vocals would not be removed from the older songs he promoted with 2PM, but he would be absent from the newer tracks, and the remaining 6 members of 2PM re-filmed their music video for "Heartbeat" without Park on October 31, 2009.[37]

2PM's first official album was titled 1:59PM, to symbolize Park's absence, according to the 6 remaining members.[38] Through their acceptance speeches at end-of-year award shows for "Again & Again", the members thanked Park and reiterated their wish for his return. At the Mnet Asian Music Awards, the group paid homage to him during their performance of "Again & Again" with a spotlight shown over his usual position in the dance formation and his lines left unsung.[39][40]

2010: YouTube, solo career, and Count on Me (Nothin' on You)

Soon after Park returned to the United States, the South Korean public changed their perspective on the matter when they realized that his Myspace messages had been severely mistranslated and taken out of context, in addition to strong fan support for Park's return.[41] Park was seen at b-boy battles with fellow Art of Movement members during his time in Seattle. However, on February 25, with Park's comeback looking more and more likely, JYP suddenly announced that Park's contract with them had been terminated, citing a separate "personal mistake" that Park had made in 2009.[42] JYP would make reference to this unknown event several times in 2010, but would never elaborate on any details, even when insisted by Park. This termination had been agreed by all 6 members of 2PM and led to the fans boycotts on 2PM-endorsed products. Protests for Park's return to the group began to take place, not only in South Korea, but internationally as well.[43] Various Jay Park-dedicated forums and fansites all over the world organized silent protests and flash dance mobs.[41] Fans also hired a plane with a banner showing "J, what time is it now?" to fly over Seattle, and was broadcast on Seattle-based radio stations.[44][45]

Park performing in Singapore, 2013

On several instances, Park was the number one trending topic on Twitter, even topping the Oscars on March 8.[46] Park's fans revealed plans to release a self-produced album in his honor on March 27 to commemorate the 200th day anniversary of his departure from Korea.[47] However, because the album had been in preparation since January and public opinion on 2PM had since changed, the fans decided it would be in the best interest to not release the CD, and instead, mailed 10–20 copies to Seattle, Park's hometown.[48]

Park created his own YouTube channel on March 15, "jayparkaom", with the first upload being his own version of "Nothin' on You", which went viral and reached over 2,000,000 views in less than 24 hours.[9] In Korea, the original song by B.o.B and Bruno Mars topped the Cyworld music chart in a matter of hours upon the video's release.[49] "Nothin' on You" also reached number 1 on other music sites such as Dosirak, Melon, Mnet, Bugs, and Soribada, making $300,000 in sales through the effect of Park's video.[50] On June 15, 2010, B.o.B released "Nothin' on You" featuring Park, in South Korea, where he replaces Bruno Mars' vocals. His YouTube cover helped contribute to much of the song's success in Korea, with more than 5 million copies sold.[51] Park subsequently thanked his fans for their support and continued to urge them not to hate remaining 2PM members.[52]

Also on April 25, the DVD, New Breed Live in Seoul, of Park's 2012 concerts was released. Park performed Lee Moon-sae's "Sunset Glow" with friend and R&B singer Crush of VV:D on the April 27 episode of Immortal Song 2.[168] Park's skit on the April 27 episode of Saturday Night Live with Gayoon of 4Minute gained attention for Park's character mistakenly saying inappropriate and sexual words in Korean, and featured a return of Park's in-character ad lib as the camera's failed to cut away at the end of the skit.[169]

On May 3, it was revealed that Park will be participating in the soundtrack of M. Night Shyamalan's 2013 American science-fiction thriller film, After Earth, having been personally contacted by Will Smith and Jaden Smith.[170] The song, titled "I Like 2 Party", is intended for the ending theme of the film and is written and composed by Park himself, and produced by friend and fellow Art of Movement member, Cha Cha Malone.[171][172] During the same week, Park was announced to be the official ambassador of international b-boy tournament and cultural festival, R-16 Korea, for the third year in a row.[173][174] Park released a 30-second snippet of "I Like 2 Party" with a short trailer of After Earth that day.[175] On May 7, Park attended the After Earth red carpet premiere in Korea along with Will and Jaden Smith.[176] On May 11, Immortal Song 2's 100th episode, Park performed "Everyday Day With You" by Deulgukhwa, remixed with Park's latest single, "Joah", impressing the audience with his singing ability even after dancing and tumbling on stage.[177] Later that month, Park made a guest appearance at Mizz Nina's concert in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where they performed their hit single, "Around the World" for the first time.[178] Although not in Korea for the live broadcast, Park's pre-recorded shenanigans in a skit with Jason Mraz on the May 18 episode of Saturday Night Live Korea drew attention from viewers of the late-night sketch comedy show. Two days after this event, Park appeared on Let's Go Dream Team! Season 2 and travelled to Singapore to launch a collaboration between himself and local capsule speaker company, X-mini.[179] Following these events, on May 30th, a song for Korean drama, She is Wow titled "Rude Girl", by Kim Seul-gie and Park was released with a music video.[180]

Information regarding the official anthem of R-16 Korea, "Respect 16", along with the music video to be filmed live during the 2013 international b-boy event was released on June 17th by Park.[181] The next day, Park released the sixth episode of Jay Park TV, showing behind the scenes of filming for television shows, photo shoots, and the music video of his single "Joah".[182]

Park renewed his contract with SidusHQ early in July, after much public speculation of him signing with other labels. Park was to perform at the Hennessy Artistry event early in July in Guangzhou, China, alongside B.o.B, but the event was cancelled at the last moment due to technical difficulties.[183] On July 10, Park released a four-track EP, I Like 2 Party, containing the songs "I Like 2 Party", "Hot", "Secret" and "Let's Make Up", and also released a music video for the title track "I Like 2 Party" which was filmed in Los Angeles.[184][185] On November 30, Park served as the emcee for the Red Bull BC One.

Artistry

Influences

Usher (left) and Michael Jackson (right) are two of Park's biggest influences

Park's music takes its roots in R&B and hip hop, more especially from the 90's.[186] He is influenced by the work of American artists he grew up listening to, such as Usher, Michael Jackson, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, Ginuwine, Musiq Soulchild, Justin Timberlake, Eminem, Jay-Z, Nas, Tupac, Dr. Dre, and Canibus.[57][79][187][188][189] Park credits Usher as his idol and as one of his biggest influences, to whom he started listening since 6th grade.[190][191] He also cites Michael Jackson as his role model, as "he is the best".[187] He cites both Usher and Michael Jackson as singers and dancers who influence him vocally and in dance, as he wanted to dance like them, looking at their music videos.[191] Park also cites Chris Brown as an inspiration, and wants "to be a singer who can be good at both singing and rapping like [him]".[188] Park began listening to hip hop music when he was in second grade, after one of his cousins let him listen to Warren G's "Regulate".[57][192] In general, Park stated he "doesn't really listen to music to get inspiration, I listen to music because I listen to music, but I do get inspired when I listen to music, it definitely helps".[193]

For his dance, Park cites Art of Movement, Skill Methods, and Massive Monkees as b-boy crews that influence him.[189][194] He also cites Andrew Baterina from SoReal Cru; Movement Lifestyle's members Keone Madrid, Lyle Beniga, and Shaun Evaristo; Ian Eastwood; and Twitch.[189][194] Park is also inspired by Taiwanese-American NBA player Jeremy Lin, saying that Lin "was off the radar and now he’s playing with the best of the best. People can’t hate on him even though they want to because he’s so good. That’s how a K-pop star has to be over in America if they want to succeed. They have to be so good in every single way that even if people hate, they can’t really say anything".[195]

Musical style

Park in Singapore, 2013

Park's music is generally contemporary R&B and hip hop, but he also incorporates pop, dance, soul, electronic and acoustic into his songs.[196] Prior to debuting as a member of an idol group, Park was coached vocally by former SOLID member and renowned R&B artist Kim Jo-han, also known to be the vocal coach of many idols in the industry.[197][198] Kim went on to say that "[Park] has an appealing and unique voice" and "definitely stood out amongst the rest".[197] Park began to write rap lyrics since eighth grade.[199] Since becoming a solo artist, Park has complete creative control over his music : he writes and composes his own songs, produces his albums, chooses the people he wants to work with, and participates in the mastering and mixing of his songs, something almost unheard-of for a singer in the Korean music industry.[57][199][200] More than making hit songs, Park says he wants people to hear to his style of music, to make them listen to "Jay Park-sounding" music.[200][201] Being fluent in both English and Korean, Park writes songs in these two languages.[9] He admits that he is more at ease when writing songs in English than in Korean, as he started learning Korean in his late teens.[199] Having grown up listening to music of American artists, he admits his music sounds more "American" than K-Pop, saying it is the style of music he wants to make, while still being recognized as K-Pop.[202][203][204] His musical process starts by listening to a lot of beats sent by various producers, while thinking of what kind of song he wants to write, and eventually short-listing a selection of potential beats to work with.[199] Then, Park works on the melody of the song, along with ideas and lyrics. He writes the hook of the song first, and finally the verses.[205][206] Park is inspired by everything when writing songs : "just listening to good songs, seeing a good live performance, having good conversations with people. Just everyday life".[204] Some songs Park wrote are influenced by songs from other artists, for example, his song "Turn Off Your Phone" (Korean: 전화기를 꺼놔; Revised Romanization: Jeonhwagireur Kkeonwa) from his album New Breed was inspired by Leessang's hit single "Turn Off the TV ..." (Korean: TV를 껐네…; Revised Romanization: TV Reurkkeotne) from their 7th album Asura Balbalta.[199]

Endorsements

Park at an event for Nike, in Seoul, South Korea

In July 2010, Park was announced to be endorsing Levi Strauss & Co.'s new brand, dENiZEN. He had previously revealed on YouTube in June 2010, before coming back to Korea, that he was at a photoshoot without revealing it was for dENiZEN.[207] He continued to endorse the brand until the end of 2011 with female model Kwon Ri-sae.[208] Park and Kwon recorded a remix duet song of dENiZEN's theme song, "Manifesto".[209]

In early 2012, Park was chosen by KT Tech to be the official model of Take HD, a new smartphone by the brand.[210] Park released the maxi-single "Take HD Special Maxi Album" on February 7, 2012, produced by KT Tech to promote the smartphone.[211] The maxi-single includes remixes of Park's lead single from his album New Breed, "Know Your Name", released on the same day.

Park appears with fellow SidusHQ celebrities Jang Hyuk, Kim Su-ro, Kim Shin-young and Jang Hee-jin in the MMORPG Lineage 2 as supporting characters.[212]

On behalf of Naver's first "Fashion Collaboration" event, Park also with fashion designer 275C for creation of a joint t-shirt titled Live Free, representing Park's free mind and lifestyle, and displaying both the Space Needle from Seattle, his hometown, and the Namsan Tower from Seoul, where he currently lives. The back of the t-shirt shows the names of his b-boy crews Art of Movement and Korean Assassins, and dance collaboration team, Project Prepix Asia.[213]

Park was also chosen to endorse and model for casual clothing brand Googims for their 2012 collections; after the announcement was made, it was stated that "the brand's home page server was down every five minutes".[214] A behind the scenes video of Park performing an impromptu dance to "Gangnam Style" by Psy at a Googims photo shoot was uploaded to YouTube on September 2, 2012, capturing the public's attention for his unique take of the choreography.[215][216] Park also has been selected as the new model for outdoor clothing brand, Williamsburg, participating in TV commercials and fan-signing events.[217]

In March 2013, Park, a long time fan of Nike, participated at a Nike event in Seoul, Korea, titled "Nike on Air", which was streamed live online via Ustream.
