Often times when we ask celebrities to write something in their natural handwriting, they hesitate because they're afraid of the judgment of netizens.
Park Jaebum, however, was different. As soon as I gave him a piece of paper, he grabbed a pen and began writing. Although it wasn't perfect, he wrote 'Hello!!' in Korean.
When I complimented him on his Korean skills, he waved his hands and stated, "No way, I'm not that good yet. I only learned Korean after I came to Korea. I studied really hard for it. I don't have a problem with speaking it but I'm not that good at hearing and understanding yet. Still, I try to use Korean as much as possible when I'm conversing with my parents at home."
One unique point are the various colors he used. He stated, "It's not fun to look at if you use just one color. I thought it'd be fun to use a variety instead."
After spreading out his letters all across the page, he grabbed another color and began underlining them. He seemed like a very freewheeling type of person. We wondered if this was perhaps the end, but it really was the end. He gave a bright smile and stated, "I'm done," as he handed over the piece of paper.
When I suggested that he write his name somewhere, he gave a shy laughter and asked, "Do I just make an autograph or should I just write my name?" Eventually, he wrote his name in the corner.
Unlike the colorful 'Hello!!' written above, his own name was written neatly and simply. However, the power that one name holds in this nation is quite large. Is it because he's overcame all sorts of hardships with his return? His fans have shown off a high level of loyalty, and because of that, he's received many love calls from the advertising market, recently filming for Levi's. The songs he has released, 'Count On Me' and 'I Want to Cry' have also each taken top rankings on online music charts.
Park Jaebum will be leaving for America on the 31st but can his body handle an 11 hour flight? He's been down with a cold and body ache after putting his all in rehearsing for his fan meeting.
Jaebum shook his head and stated, "Meeting my fans is the most fun for me." At that moment, I randomly thought of last September, when he left for America on an economy seat. Having won over everything now along with the fact that he's leaving for America in celebration of his fans seems like a rather unique feeling to him.
He smiled while adding, "I've got business class seats now."
