- “LNGSHOT is getting the most damage from this.”
- “Jay Park is such an attention seeker.”
- “Oh, it was a joke? I thought he was serious…”
- “He’s butting into the group’s space…what is wrong with him?”
- “He needs to separate artist Jay Park from producer Jay Park; he can’t seem to do that. This is just making the fans annoyed.”
- “A joke can be seen as a joke when it’s in a situation where it feels like one. If you are doing something that is bound to feel serious, and you say it’s just a joke, does that make it a joke? There have already been so many times you acted as if you were the fifth member.”
