As many fans of GOT7 know, the group members’ parents have made themselves known to fans, unlike other idols’ families who prefer to remain private. Jay B’s parents are some of the most interactive and have opened a cafe where they have welcomed fans with open arms.
Jay B also often visits the shop and greets fans while seeing his parents.
แฟนถามว่าจะไปเยี่ยมจินยองตอนไหน
เจ้านั่นไม่แบ่งเวลามาให้เลย (ประมาณยังไม่บอกว่าให้ไปวันไหน) ติดต่อไม่ได้ เมื่อวานโทรไปก็ติดสาย เลยส่งข้อความไปว่าให้โทรกลับหน่อย แต่ก็ไม่ยอมโทรมา
สงสารพี่เค้านะคะ ดูหน้าตาตอนบ่น น้องจินยองติดต่อกลับด่วนค่ะ#JAYB #제이비@jaybnow_hr pic.twitter.com/zlJNJ2ydQf

While the original criticism was on Twitter, it seems Jay B’s parents were made aware of the issue, leading to a response online.
In a letter shared on Instagram on the Yogurbara account, Jay B’s mother asked that her kindness not be taken advantage of so that she can continue being kind.
“I have something I’d like to say, so here’s a handwritten letter. It’s hard to find kindness these days. Maybe it’s because the world’s in trouble. But no matter where I go, I rarely get a smile with a greeting nowadays. I’d be lucky to have someone say hello, even if it’s not the friendliest. It makes me wonder why everyone is so angry.
Maybe it’s because of rude customers. Or maybe it’s because of medical issues. Everyone has their own stories, but it is difficult for me to completely understand. That might be because I try to be kind to everyone. Once, I read something on social media. It said, “Be kind to everyone because you don’t know what kind of a day they’re having. Being kind is the greatest thing a human can do.”
And I felt grateful for that message. I was glad to know there are other people who share that sentiment. It made me promise myself that I’ll continue to be even more kind going forward. Unfortunately, though, my kindness has been taken advantage of. As unexpected as that was, I ask you with the utmost respect. Please help me so that I can continue being kind without change. I’d like to keep being genuine in my kindness.
I’d like to be kind, not because I have to be or I want something in return. And please remember that I cannot welcome anyone who tries to exploit my kindness! If there’s one thing I hope for, it is that I can greet you all with a big smile on my face—no matter where you come from, in what shape or form. That being said, I hope to see everyone this coming weekend! Thank you.
그럼 돌아오는 주말에 뵐게요~^^”
