YMMV / 2PM

• Broken Base:
  • Due to the scandal with Jaebeom, the initial fans were split into the ones who thought the group wouldn’t be complete without Jaebeom and the fans who were okay with his departure from the group.
  • Despite 2011 being the year of 2PM’s popularity peak, the fanbase was split again the year after: those who were disappointed with Nichkhun’s issue, those who were still fans but didn’t continue following the group since they shifted their activities to Japan, and those who kept supporting them.
• Fandom-Enraging Misconception: Don't ever say that 2PM isn't active or that the members are slacking off. As most fans say, "just because they aren't in Korea doesn't mean they're not working".
• Friendly Fandoms: Despite the similar concepts of 2PM and GOT7, which may lead to fandom wars, most Hottests and IGOT7s get along well, partly because they're part of the same "family" (JYP Nation) and that many Hottests are IGOT7s as well.
• The Woobie: Despite being JYP Entertainment's top moneymaker and the group who worked their asses off when the company was in danger of bankruptcy, JYP Entertainment's status as one of the "Big Three" is attributed to Suzy and TWICE.
  • They aren't able to film many variety shows since they are going back and forth from Korea and another country most of the time.
  • They also get the short end of promotions:
    • The album "No.5" was only promoted for a week. After that, they had to go on tour.
    • Junho's album "CANVAS", Jun. K's album "My 20's", and Wooyoung's album "When We Part" were announced two weeks before its release. Junho and Jun. K weren't able to perform on music shows due to their schedules. When Junho's music videos for the said album were posted on JYPE's YouTube channel, they were not subtitled, as opposed to almost every other video in their channel.
    • "CANVAS" promotions were also sandwiched between Junho's Japanese tour and his preparations for Just Between Lovers. After the filming for the drama ended, he immediately started activities for "Winter Sleep". Fans noted his drastic loss of weight in between promotions, but in an interview, he says that it was scheduled like that on purpose and he lost weight so that he could portray his role better.
