On the latest episode of g.o.d Joon Park and Fly to the Sky Brian Joo‘s online show BYOB Pocha, J.Y. Park (also known as JYP, Park Jin Young, and The Asian Soul) guested.
While g.o.d was formed by SidusHQ and debuted in 1999, it was the first K-Pop group that J.Y. Park produced, as he was their mentor. When its contract with SidusHQ expired, g.o.d signed with JYP Entertainment.
While guesting on BYOB Pocha, J.Y. Park revealed he knew when the group members were lying to him and going out clubbing. He explained that the group was becoming successful, selling millions of albums.
J.Y. Park did his best to keep them grounded as g.o.d began acting like celebrities. So, he took them to the U.S.
I did everything to hold them down keep them there, but it wasn’t easy. One day, I took them to to the States. So, I had to take him away from the Korean community and then you know what I did…
— J.Y. Park
They start to act like celebs a little bit, I did everything to hold them down, to keep them there (not letting fame get to their head) but it wasn’t easy.

J.Y. Park was concerned about g.o.d clubbing. So, he called all the clubs’ managers and told them to inform him if g.o.d makes a reservation.
I called the clubs and the manager of the clubs. ‘If g.o.d. makes a reservation, you call me.’ Okay, first week is fine. Second week is fine. Third week, finally a call. ‘Hey JY, we just got a reservation … from Joon.’
— J.Y. Park
Brian was surprised to discover Joon was clubbing back then. Joon defended himself, explaining it was 2003. Yet, J.Y. Park continued.
They all hopped in the car. They’re going to the club, and I called them … I said, ‘Hey Joon.’ ‘Oh, JY.’ I said, ‘Where are you going?’ And they’re like, ‘Oh, you know just to go out to grab something from the convenience store.’
— J.Y. Park
J.Y. Park revealed he called Joon, who lied about where they were going. When J.Y. Park said he’d meet them at their room, the members turned back. Brian was shocked Joon lied to J.Y. Park, but Joon defended himself.
