Why is Big Bang making its return with just a mini-album?

When rumors were confirmed regarding Big Bang's comeback with a full album being compressed to a mini-album, many fans were disappointed and confused by the sudden change. After all, it was quite puzzling that the highly-anticipated return, which would end a two-year group hiatus for Big Bang's Korean activities, would contain so little tracks. According to reports, the reason behind this smaller comeback is due to the fact that Big Bang intends to increase their freqency of producing albums this coming year, with plans to keep meeting with their fans instead of just actively promoting for a short time period. In a recent interview, G-Dragon confirmed, "After coming back from Japan, we also have plans to make one more album." Perhaps this is a little bittersweet for VIPs, but in the long run, 2011 sounds like it's going to be amazing! Source: OSEN via Nate
