I don't think Johnny is to blame, if that's what you mean.
Jin isn't to blame either, no one is. He just wants to make his dream come true, what's wrong with that? And who are the fans to keep him from doing so?
It's not like Jin didn't have a say in it either, or KAT-TUN. They decided it all together.
i agree. i dont think johnny is to blame. and i dont think jin would put "ciao" in a very serious statement. it wouldnt be appropriate. we know jin always had the solo 'feel'. to a lot of people, it's not surprising (although to me it kinda was) because they knew jin loves US and he loves his solo cons.
AGREE WITH U! when i read this. i thot so too. his long msg was meant to be a really formal one. and hence no ciao. and replaced by his full name.
and i don think anyone is to be blamed for this decision. cos i think it was a really tough decision that has many consequences. so all parties (JE, Johnny, KAT-TUN) should have agreed on this tgt. and this decision is definitely made for the best of them (at least in their opinions).
when i clicked the link i thought you were making an appeal yo KT fans to stop fighting and bashing, not defending Jin. but since you're defending him, lemme tell you that although i have no intention to bash him nor hate him nor anything (he's just out of the picture for me, and i'm glad he's pursuing his own dream), i have realized, while reading your words, how different my opinion (which coincides to many others' opinion) is from yours, which of course is shared by the other half of the fandom, jin's fans. at least most of them, since i know there are some who don't understand him or refuse to accept his decisions. so lemme tell you my opinion, and don't take any offense from it. just so you know how people view things so differently. "it has been decided that I will work solo from now on" not "I have decided"jin doesn't take decisions by himself. he's still part of an agency. just because he's a smart guy and knows how to make himself heard doesn't mean he is in charge of himself and can do everything he wants. he has a boss. if

I think Johnny-san is the one to blame, but only because of the way he managed this whole situation... Some called it "bad timing"... I just call it that "bad management". I tried to look at things in a different way than from a fan's point of view 'cause, let's face it, this is just bussiness for most of the peopke involve. And even in that way, it doesn't make any sense the way this whole thing exploded in front of us. I mean, as a simple basic question, if Pi, Tackey, Tsubasa, Tegomassu, if all of them could have a "solo" career while being in their respective unit, why Johnny wanted to make a different case with Jin!? Because he wanted to be in America!? I don't think that's enough reason.! So, as far as I know, this whole thing could have being prevented. 'Cause now, what Jin earned with a lot of effort (his debut in USA) is now treated like some sort of crime against KAT-TUN. And you know what? It is now fair. It is not fair for him to be blame for this. So people should cut all the crap against him and stop making him the

Yeah... I kind of felt the same thing after reading your post...
I know people have the right to feel as the want to, but I just wish they stopped bashing on Jin as if they knew all the facts.
So for me, everytime I get to read a post, not defending Jin, but at least showing some respect for him and his path, it makes me feel relief. As in some weight is taken from my shoulders ^_^

i agree with your synopsis the best. the original plan probably was for jin to return after the first set of concerts. however, his sponsor picked him up for additional shows in the us. we don't know, but since rumor has it that will have tours in 2011 as well, we do know that when given the option of being with the group or doing solo activities, jin chooses solo

To be honest ? No I will not be happy if kat-tun be a plan B for any one even for my beloved boy kame.
Because, think of the other members feeling when they are one member that fool around in and out the band and each time the fan will be target the members not jin even if he is the one who want to leave in first place.
OK suppose you have a friend that talk to you 3 days then ignore you a month then talk to you again when she want something from you ? For me I will talk to her but she will not be my best friend. I'm not saying jin did this but to be someone backup plan means that you'll work hard on your plan A If it fails you will go for B but you are not satisfy.
And if KAT-TUN allow him to return who can be sure he will not go again for some reasons..
