I bought his album and Amazon never delivered it 🙃 I'm buying again from somewhere else.
freaking love this guy ❤️
DBSK was like BTS level. Honestly their Fandom wasn't just scary, they were straight up terrifying. Even Army are not close to Cassies in sheer dominance when it came to die hard fans. Big Bang didn't intend to grow into a super group to rival other kpop groups as their niche was Hip Hop and EDM but when Lies came out it became such a dominate force because of the general public. Your sister and brother, mother and father even your grandparents listened to BIG BANG. The fact BB could generate an all age inclusive Fandom is what cemented their dominance over the decade+ some.
big bang to date remains the biggest Boy to girl Fandom. With 55% male vs 45% female. In fact they are the ONLY kpop group with more male fans than girls fans to exist.
That's why the group was so perplexing to all companies.
I do think the first performance was usually always on inkigayo as the broadcasting vo.pany would pro.ise the. The best possible stages and their rating were INSANE when Big Bang had a comeback. GDs crayon stage and the water fall Blue stage still live in my mind years later. It was just sepurb
I wish I could see him in the states. Even if he did smaller venues like the ones Epik high does. It's the only way I could see him close as if I was in a VIP area.
Just his mere presence feels like joy and happiness
Everything I go I end up dying of laughter over their banter. It's always so refreshing to see you in Seattle
So if they can sing live then why not let them sing live all the time? Does jyp not have faith in their skills? The company could only benefit from stable vocals.
the media play is wild over nothing but a few seconds worth of live singing....like that's not their entire job description.
Even in the picture there is so much sophistication, power and fierceness and when they smile they are warmth, love and friendship ❤️ my Blackjack heart ❤️
I do think CL is doing everything for the trademark. Even though she was mad at her old CEO she said herself that he actually helped her and offered her insight or help after she left the company.
I do think YG CL and Dara left without burning the bridge down.
YG really is proud of 2ne1 and their legacy I just hope he loves that legacy as much as he loved iKON and its members.
He literally could use the good publicity and good favor of the public.
I promise I’ll stop trash talking YG for at least 24 hours if we get a comeback
I can do 24 too 😂
Just get toned! No need to lose weight girl you look pretty already!
Empty and my type are still songs I play often. Especially My type.
I was just thinking about this. I knew it was coming but now it feels too soon. Yunhyeong is around the corner too as he also is set to enlist this year.
I wish my boys the best 👍💖
I'm a VIP so it hurts to say this... BIGBANG were legends, but they were never family... 😔
They are close but there's such a strong level of respect even within them that they dont cross a line. It was the reason they could last so long. It's also why they didn't have fights within the group to the level of fist fights, it was always cordial and respectful of everyone's input.
Hyunseung should have been in Bigbang instead of Seungri.
No, during that time he didn't have the confidence that BB needed. He was talented enough but he was scared each time he had to compete and his complex got the best out of him. Even tho Seungri wasn't the best singer (and was a horrible later) he was Confident and displayed the right attitude for the public to follow his energy. It was due to Seungris very extrovert personality that he could capture people attention in his own way.
After a long ti.e people mature. Even when he was a part of the big bang lineup you could see that the final members themselves said they had to tread lightly with Hyunseung because his attitude could change and ripple out to the members too. Honestly even back then he acted like it was about showing HIS better side and not being fair which Taeyang called it out. Others said he was to sensitive. So that's why I think YG said that even though talented he could cause problems within a group down the road...which he did in B2st. Seungri was the best choice at that time, he also had a Me attitude but he understood his place and was never rude or mean to the members.
I think Hyunseung now is much calmer, wiser and kinder to everyone around him. He is at a place where he acknowledges he was wrong and probably just wants to say sorry but is to scared and doesn't know if the old members will even want to talk to him. Especially when there was bad blood within them he wouldn't know he should reach out first out or embarrassment for his actions.
he is still so talented and good I hope bb members can finally collaborate for fun.
The three being respectful towards T.O.Ps decision to not going is worth the praise as well. T.O.P has had such a hard time even when he was in Big Bang and he just needs rest and to get away from the world's lense. Let my man be. I rather know he is healing mentally and emotionally than forcing himself to be present when he is not ready. The members look at each other as family and no loving member would want to bring in dread or a force a person into something they don't want.
we love you T.O.P and I wish for your happiness. I'm glad to see the 3 boys happy and supporting each other openly.
I'm excited for GD, I'm on repeat for Taeyangs music and I'm brimming with happiness when I see Daesung on activities. I love you all dearly, please take care of your health.
I still hear empty and My type pretty frequently
Yes, but 10+ years ago every nominated group or soloist was there because they're talented, not because they're hyped. Now, it's all about streaming numbers and trending on Tiktok etc.
Honestly Nothing beats 2000s to like 2016...after that it's just been chaos.
Back when I started to get into kpop the music criteria was largely dominated by judges who were composers. Music Producers. Lyric writers, music professors and also show PDs with the smallest portion was acclaimed dance choreo teachers. Their scores were 40-60% and then was based on physical copies, streaming and finally fan voting at no more than 20% of score. Also international voting took an even smaller claim to percentage.
back then it was kpop, hip hop, indie, rock even trot singers had a fighting chance to appear and get nominated.
They were legit, or at the very least it was fair and had backing.
Now its a freaking mess. Only idols, mostly fresh debuted, all music is the same, oh and the biggest crime of all....ALL LIPSYNC.
but why don't they base the korean award shows on individual listeners instead? Internationally we're behind but Korea has the power to know this info.
I'm seeing his current drama with another of my all time favorite actresses and I'm over here kicking the sheets because he's too darn cute. I wish him success in everything he does!!! He's such a caring and sweet actor, I love watching dramas that align with his natural personality.
Jennie is boring, jisoo is the golden ticket as she is witty and funny without even trying. Jennie is bland in variety but people hype her up so much and I just can't understand. She should stick to fashion as she excels in that department.
B.I. tries not to implicate them in anyway but leaves encouraging messages thru this parents businesses SNS and the members straight up post things relating to him all the time. Even when they are on stage together you can see that they dont know how to act with each other and yet they are always aware of each other's presence. Once the cameras stop and they are off stage they must talk.
if Bobby who was the most pissed and disappointed in B.I. still loves and adores him just imagine the other guys feelings. Just because a friend does wrong and hurts himself we don't abandon them. Why should ikon turn their backs on a childhood friend who fought just like they did.
He's a good person who married into a ethically challenged family. I don't think Lee Seungi or his child should suffer the hate. Raise him well.
