GD&TOP’S POWERFUL PERFORMANCE AND SUPPORT FROM BOM

Big Bang sub-unit GDragon and TOP (aka GD&TOP) made their debut by performing 2 highly addictive songs on stage today.

On the noon of 19th November, GD&TOP performed their first stage on Inkigayo’s Special Episode with 2 of their triple-title songs from studio album, HIGH HIGH and OH YEAH.
During the Oh Yeah performance, GD&TOP pumped up the atmosphere by showing their powerful rapping skills and also the addictive chorus sung by Park Bom from 2NE1 which raised the quality of the stage.

HIGH HIGH, another song performed by GD&TOP, was based on electronic tune and Hip-Hop beats combined with the powerful stage presence, pushing their debut performance to a higher level.

Through this ‘comeback’ of GD&TOP as part of Big Bang, we are able to see their glamorous fashion and charisma together as one, bringing a fresh impact to the current music industry.

President YG, 100% satisfied with G-Dragon and T.O.P's performance

BIGBANG's G-Dragon and T.O.P just completed their colorful and addictive stage on the 19th. Yang Hyun Seok, YG Entertainment's president said he was "100% satisfied" with their performance.

Watching the two boys' comeback stage on Inkigayo, Yang Hyun seok looked tense. But after they finished, he gave them a big applause and wore a big smile on his face. Here's a short Q&A session with him after:

Congratulations! What do you think of their comeback stage today?
YG: I am very satisfied. They were very nervous but they ended up with a very good performance. They are pleased about it too.

Did you think they will be successful?
YG: I was not quite sure because it is different from the union of the whole group. The success of BIGBANG (in their early stage) pressured them but I think that is good.

How was the response from the fans?
YG: They were very pleased too. Thanks. They will be using Knock Out, High High and Oh Yeah as their three title songs, just like 2NE1. Park Bom also performed with them together (for Oh Yeah) on the stage today which made it even more brilliant. Thank you very much.

Can you introduce the songs?
YG: High High is a mix of house electronica and hip-hop and its melody is impressive, which lets them enjoy a powerful stage. GD and T.O.P are particularly charming when performing intense kind of music . Their music, coupled with their special fashion sense, definitely gives people a shock. Oh Yeah is an impressive song with some of the lyrics sung by Park Bom of 2ne1, who certainly enhanced the stage performance.

What activities will this unit group have?
YG: We were already too tired today so we went home early. Tomorrow, we will have a discussion with the director of the music video of High High, then we will do some shooting. It might be the music video which will have the strongest impact. They are scheduled to appear at different events and on TV programs at the end of the year.

Big Bang’s G-Dragon and T.O.P were recently interviewed for KBS 2TV ‘Entertainment Relay‘.

When asked about the positives about promoting as a unit group, G-Dragon explained, “We can drink alcohol comfortably. Before, we were uncomfortable about drinking around the other members, because apart from T.O.P and I, the other members don’t drink.”

The duo also affirmatively said “No” when the reporter asked if they had any girlfriends. Slyly, the reported then asked, “Are you sure that’s not an answer with your boss in mind?”. Yet both T.O.P and G-Dragon answered, “Our boss would actually rather us to living a stable life with a stable girlfriend.”

Meanwhile, the two are currently getting ready to make their stage comeback on December 19th’s Inkigayo. Fellow member and maknae Seungri will be making his comeback in January with a digital single.

IU explains why she exchanged Taeyang for Yoo Ah In as her ‘ideal man’

IU was known for originally being a huge fan of Taeyang’s, but recently made the switch over to “Sungkyunkwan Scandal” actor Yoo Ah In.
She even received a ‘love confession’ from the actor during the “2010 Golden Disk Awards“! Yoo Ah In was informed of IU’s ‘crush’ on him by fellow presenter Park Min Young, to which he replied, “IU, I love you too!” But why did she replace Taeyang with Yoo Ah In?
IU finally revealed her reason behind the switch through an interview with “Mnet Wide“. She explained:

“I kept talking about Taeyang so much on broadcast programs, that my mom gave me a warning. She said that if I talked about Taeyang one more time, she would disown me. That’s why I named Yoo Ah In as my ideal man instead of Taeyang. Netizens started commenting, ‘You once said you liked Taeyang…!‘ Well, it seems like no matter what I say, people won’t be satisfied (laughter). I really am just an innocent fan, please don’t misunderstand.”

The singer also revealed her thoughts on the parodies surrounding her ‘three level octave’ by adding, “I was really proud when I saw the first parody. I always thought that they were a refelection of your popularity. New versions are made every day, and I make sure to watch every single one.”
