Seeing bighit give update on source music's new gg feels weird, its almost like seeing SM give update on rocket punch. Unpopular opinion here, i feel that they whole iland concept was his idea, which is why i think he should have put iland group directly under bighit instead of belift. Cj has a track record of unsuccessful groups under their subsidiaries and seeing as cj has more shares in belift, bang pd would just be doing all the heavy lifting for cj when he could be doing that under bighit. Plus belift has a CEO, why exactly are they paying him if bang pd is doing his job instead of running bighit.
