Big Bang Seung Ri 2008 SBS Gayo Daejeon Awards

Will happen at the 2008 SBS Gayo Daejeon Awards tonight.

Big Bang member Seung Ri will finally get his chance to prove that he isn't the most useless member of the group, by performing his solo track "Strong Baby" from Big Bang's 2nd album, "Remember."

Big Bang will wrap up their performances of Sunset Glow by year end and Seung Ri will officially begin his solo debut in the new year. This reminds me of a bumper sticker I recently ran across, it said something like, "Boldly Going Nowhere."

Stay tuned for our full coverage of the 2008 SBS Gayo Daejeon Awards later today.

Ever since I got this CD I LUV THIS TRACK!!!! Gdragon sounds hot and so does Seung Ri. It reminds me of a Justin Timberlake song at some points of the song and that isn’t a bad thing! -__- I wish they didn’t act so gay every other second(nothing worse than a bunch of straight guys acting gay, especially when their…not gay?)Anyways this song is hot, and makes you look at Seung Ri ina diffrent light that very sexy/hot light. I wonder what else they have for kpop fans

Yup seung ri is a rasict just google it’

as long as my Baby TOP, GD and we know Tae aren’t racist i’m good dae is ok also

 
no avatar

i don’t know why ppl hate him
but for me he is only one who has good looking in BB
and he is only one who is friendly with other arctics
I think he is good in personality unlike GD and Top

 
Sakyan's avatar

Well apparently.. he said on a radio show that he wanted to get changed so he went into their van but it wasnt theirs, he added that he was glad it was a white guy that was inside the van that yelled at him because if it was a black he could have gotten shot.. I was so disappointed in him and all my fangirl-ness disappeared so now everytime i hear or see him I think about that incident..

aww my baby’s goin solo

Your baby? Most celebs wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire, no offence.

 
VUDU's avatar

@Sakyan
Same here but I was never really a fan. I ignored him and when I found about that incident…I just kind of want to punch him.
But anyways, finally being put to some use now aren’t ya Seungri? Har har har jk jk
I’ve grown curious as to see what kind of performance he’ll put on.

 
cutieroo's avatar

yay!~ go maknae! can’t wait to watch his performance!

 
★corraaaaa's avatar

Hahah this fan MV is pretty good. Can’t wait to see maknaeeee rocking it on the stage hahah what a cutie <3

To be serious, and honest, most Koreans are severely racist. Seungri grew up in a society that has that view on blacks, unfortunately. So I won’t excuse or defend his behaviour, but it doesn’t make me like him any less.

 
~Loco_Roco~'s avatar

Yeah I heard about the racism thing. I don’t HATE him. I just lost respect for him =/ but his solo track is awesome (from both albums, actually). He never really stood out to me but he makes the group look…complete?

 
Leah's avatar

“Boldly Going Nowhere” rofl

And too bad about Seunri saying racist/stereotypical things. Hopefully he will know better in the future.

Anyways, good luck to him.

okay, I looked it up as well, and he can go fuck himself or have one of his group members do it for him. Now i don’t even like the song anymore. Plus if he said that i could imagine what everyone else thinks in south ko.

seungri goin solo!
cant wait! :D

 
anginity's avatar

i don’t get what the big deal is.
the comment he made was a while back, so i don’t get why people still bother with it.

seriously, what he said was wrong, but come on…everyone says or had a racist thought like that at least once in their life. If it’s not about black people then it’s about white people. If it’s not about white people then its about some other race, even their very own race. It’s no big deal. the only bad thing about his situation was that it was broadcast nation wide, which apparently wasn’t such a great choice of word in his part.

 
Tiffy's avatar

It’s funny how he would say something like that but TRY so hard to be a “gansta” and a “thug” in the MVs. What a joke and a loser. There is no excuse for what he said.

 
~Loco_Roco~'s avatar

The way I see it, if GD can apologize for wearing a shirt that says “I <3 Sex,” then Seungri could have apologized for that. Everyone pretty much let it go, but it won’t stop me from loving BB.

I don’t know why people don’t think it’s a big deal. Stereotyping people is always a big deal. It’s kind of okay to like their music despite the artist’s stupidity, but you shouldn’t excuse their ignorance and racists attitudes.
I agree with ykdim, being a kid is no excuse.  If a 10 year old made that comment I’d still yell at him. I get annoyed when people call me chinese when I’m not, and that’s not as bad as what he said.

And they want to make in the US? Pfft.

Its going to be like Taeyang. Hes going to get beaten up by SNSD, and quote the article, “end up no where”

@ ~Loco_Roco~
GD apologized because the Korean public was bashing him about it while Seungri’s comment offended the international fans more while people in Korea didn’t make a big deal out of it.

 
AAP. lalalala~'s avatar

yeaaah i love that song =D

 
mrbean's avatar

ahahahh @ LOL.
i never thought about how a guy would feel at the ending of strong baby
“bye ladies~ *smooch*”

 
Beat's avatar

Seungri wants to prove (again) that he cant sing ?

 
Shattered_Regrets's avatar

I remember that racist thing.
There’s no excuse for it and I hope someone did set him straight about that. They’re coming to the US so I hope he doesn’t bring that stereotypical idea along with him.
HA. G-Dragon & his “I Love Sex” XD

How f-ed up is that. Loving sex is bad but being racist is okay.  Korea needs to set their priority straight. It’s ironic really, their music style (rap and hiphop) music came from the black community.

 
~Loco_Roco~'s avatar

@ LOL, then that’s even more of a shame. Seriously did he ever realize how stupid / offensive that sounded? If he’s let off the hook, he’ll continue to say stuff like that. I have nothing against him personally but he should think before he says things.

Ok people, chill out about his “racist” comment. I’m black, and I wasn’t even as offended as some of you. I’m sure he was just joking.

yawn yawn yeah he was really joking huh

 
JennyKim319's avatar

Honestly, average Korean people don’t have a lot of knowledge about the different cultures, so I can only blame his ignorance. You can’t blame a kid who only knows what he saw from movies and shows.
