Average song; love the style (which seems to be the new trend in K-pop); and loving the live performance despite the lip-syncing.

The Seattle based Korean-American has left the group since September 2009 following some old controversial remarks on MySpace which have been exposed.

His company and fellow 2PM members had however all this while insisted that he was welcomed to rejoin the team… so it is quite a shocker for the fans that he is not returning to the (originally) seven members group.
