No Wonder Girls nor Big Bang in 2009…

Big Bang

We all know about JYP's mission to make the Wonder Girls American debut a blinding success and they are now the opening acts for all but 2 of Jonas Brothers concert tour stops until the end of 2009. That effectively means no Korean albums in 2009 for Korean Wonderfuls. The same goes for Big Bang's VIPs when it was announced recently that there were no plans for a 2009 Korean album as well.

YG Entertainment's CEO, Yang Hyun Suk revealed recently that Big Bang's leader and fashionista, G-Dragon will be releasing his 1st mini-album on 18th August, coincidentally his 21st birthday. This will be followed by Tae Yang whose 2nd mini-album will be out around September - October. Daesung will also be releasing his own mini-album at the end of the year, and it was stressed that it will not be another trot album. The other 2, T.O.P and Seung Ri will be busy with their respective filming commitments.

Big Bang are currently still united though but not in Korea, promoting in Japan which started in June and will end in July. Thereafter, the individual Big Bang members will disperse to pursue their own projects. Yang Hyun Suk said, "Many are hoping to see another Big Bang album this year. But because of their Japan promotions and subsequent solo projects thereafter, it's not possible for them to do so. We hope that the fans will understand and continue to show their support for their solo projects."

No Wonder Girls nor Big Bang in 2009. The same goes for MC Mong (maybe), Lee Hyori (maybe) and others which I can't remember. The K-pop scene of 2009 looks so lonely without them. With less than 1/2 of 2009 to go, hopefully someone steps up to the plate.

I’ll try to look on the bright side of things. I guess it isn’t too bad. They’re still together at least. Besides, my Japanese is much better than my Korean will ever be. I’m happy for the Wonder Girls, too!

I’ll look forward to Daesung’s new album. I loved his trot songs but I’m excited to hear that his new ones won’t be. His voice really suits slow songs. I can’t wait ‘till it comes out. GD’s and Taeyang’s, too. Maybe I’ll ask for them as a present for the holidays?

Nobody’s going to be in the k-pop scene in ‘09 =[
Well alot of the new artists are….
But it will feel so empty without the sunbaes TT^TT
2010 should be a good year though,
hopefully they all come back
Along with CSJH!!!! =D

i let my mom look at the picture of G-Dragon on the cover of the news article, and these were her exact words” I believe that’s a girl. She has such a pretty bone struckture in her face.” She was shocked when I told her it was a boy.  If the company is truely deciding on how they dress, then they need to start letting them dress themselves…

i miss ppl on korean variety shows. i am into k-pop for many years now, i dont know if ppl remember shows like x-man, love letter and all, but i do, i love those shows. n i miss ppl be on them. but it seems like korean musci market is like kinda saturated and everyone thats kinda famous is going to be out of korea to keep up their work like dbsk, bb, suju, wonder girls, even 2pm is going to thailand. wow.

well,i kinda saw this coming. i highly doubt that WG will be making a comeback anytime this year since JYP is more concentrated on debuting them in the US plus with all these tours they will be having with Jo Bros. let alone make a comeback in Korea. As for Big Bang,i kinda had a feeling when 2NE1 was introduced.. that Big Bang will not be having a comeback soon. But nothing to fret guys,we have 2NE1 and 2pm to make it up for their (on-hiatus) sunbaes anyway. Those two are my only favorite bands that are currently active,the rest are bleh!
