[CLIP] BIGBANG RANKS 1st ON MTVK STUDIO 5 EPISODE 3 "TOP 10 IDOLS,FANS WANT TO SEE LIVE IN CONCERT"


Starts at 4:38:

VJ Grace explores the streets of Hongdae, Seoul for a special on-location episode of Studio 5! Shot in the heart of Korea’s music scene — where spotlight artist indie duo 10cm had their humble beginnings — this week’s episode features fans living in Korea as they tell us which K-pop idols they want to see in concert the most.

This week’s episode of STUDIO 5, shot right in the heart of Seoul, features a very special edition MTV K’s TOP 10 COUNTDOWN: Since we were in Korea, we decided to poll fans on the streets of Korea to see which idols they wanted to see live in concert and why!

After spending some time exploring the streets of Hongdae, Seoul and meeting dozens of K-pop fans, we narrowed down the list to 10 artists with reputations for sick live concerts.

These ten are known for their exciting live concerts for various reasons — from TVXQ and JYJ‘s flawless live vocals to Super Junior and Rain‘s explosive energy onstage, it was really tough choosing only ten…

1. BIGBANG
2. Super Junior
3. TVXQ
4. 2NE1
5. Girls Generation
6. JYJ
7. SHINee
8. Rain
9. 2PM
10. Beast

[NEWS] BIGBANG ON EMA-INSPIRED LAST-MINUTE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES


So it’s down to the wire and you still haven’t come up with any ideas for this year’s Halloween costume? No worries! Take some inspiration from the many 2011 MTV EMA nominees with signature style…that is surprisingly easy to copy on the cheap. In fact, you can probably throw together any one of these looks by raiding your own closet, your roommate’s, and/or your parents’. (OK, and maybe picking up a wig.)

To maximize the celebrity-lookalike effect (and deflect “You totally just threw that together at the last minute, didn’t you?” remarks), enlist your equally procrastinatory friends to join you in a group costume.

BigBang
Round up a posse of pals to go out together in sleek black suits with pops of bright color peeking out: think gloves or a dress shirt. Voila—you’re Korea’s hottest boy band in their latest style incarnation. So what if they’re not a household name in your nabe? In a year, your friends will remember how totally ahead of the curve you were.

[NEWS] Jung Il Woo to become in laws with G-Dragon?


At a press conference for new tvN Kdrama ‘Pretty Boys’ Ramen Shop‘, actor Jung Il Woo began to talk about his beloved Shar Pei, Ah Woo with his fans who were present at the event.

“My dog who was given to me as a birthday gift from my fans last year now weighs nearly 40 pounds, and won’t listen to anything I say,” he said."When I was filming ‘49 Days‘, G-Dragon who also has a Shar Pei called me and asked if I was interested in letting our dogs get married", he revealed.

But due to the busy schedules of both, the dogs have been unable to meet yet. He continued, “I was so busy filming the drama, we were unable to get together to arrange the marriage for our dogs… And also because Ah Woo is female, I feel like she should play a little hard to get anyway. If he contacts me again, though, I think I just may allow it.”

And in regards to his fans, he said, “My fans keep me grounded, and they are my source of drive. They are the reason I am able to keep a good head on my shoulders… My fans that have been with me since my debut know me better than my own family. To me, they are my acting coach, and my stylist, and I work hard and am always aware of my actions because I don’t want to disappoint any of them.”

In his new drama ‘Pretty Boys’ Ramen Shop’, Jung Il Woo plays the role of a handsome high school student, Cha Chi Soo, who develops a romance with the athletic Yang Eun Bi, the daughter of the Ramen Shop.

[NEWS] BIGBANG : WORLDWIDE ACT NOMINEE SPOTLIGHT

This week, we’re spotlighting each of the five Worldwide Act nominees, and today it’s all about BIGBANG.


The South Korean boy band beat out Agnes Monica, Exile, Gotye, Jane Zhang, Jay Chou, and Sia for the honour of being the first act to represent Asia Pacific in the race for the new Worldwide Act EMA.

As their moniker might suggest, BIGBANG make a splash, with their catchy hip-hop/dance pop and their suave fashion style—and after attaining megastardom in their home country, they’re starting to gain recognition internationally.

The five-piece group (Daesung, G-Dragon, Seungri, Taeyang, and T.O.P.) topped the charts in 2007 with their single “Lies” in Korea and won the Seoul Music Award for Artist of the Year—among other honours—that year. BIGBANG went on to amass fans in Japan and win awards there. They scored Best Pop Video and Best New Artist trophies at the MTV Video Music Awards Japan 2010.

After a hiatus when the group members focused on pursuing side and solo projects, they returned with a—wait for it—bang. Their 2011 release ‘Tonight’ was the first K-pop, or South Korean pop, album to hit the iTunes top 10.

You can vote for Worldwide Act and the other open MTV EMA categories through 4th November. The winners will be announced on 6th November at the 2011 MTV EMA in Belfast, airing on MTV at 9 PM CET (9 PM GMT in the U.K.).

[NEWS] TAEYANG ASSURES FANS THAT BIGBANG IS DOING FINE


Big Bang member Taeyang recently reached out to fans with a message that revealed his feelings. In the face of the controversies that groupmates Daesung and G-Dragon are embroiled in, Taeyang's words come across as assurance that the "Big Bang crisis", as it has come to be known, is not going to happen.

On October 25th, he tweeted: "I think all the hardships we went through this year were sent our way in order to make us stronger. Thank you once again for all your concern and love. Love ya." His succint statement caught the eyes of fans for its positivity.

It is particularly significant in that it is the first such statement since Daesung and G-Dragon were involved in their respective controversies. Taeyang had previously tweeted a cryptic message at the start of October, saying: "I know everything, even though I seem like I don't. I may seem like I'm being deceived, but I'm just keeping my eyes closed." Fans guessed then that it had something to do with G-Dragon's marijuana charge, but it remained as nothing more than mere speculation.

However, his message this time clearly alludes to the abovementioned controversies. The phrase "made us stronger" also informed fans that far from posing a problems to their future activities, Big Bang has become tougher instead.

[NEWS] BIGBANG ONE OF THE IDOL GROUP'S IMPACT ON THE MUSIC INDUSTRY


Much like last year, thus far in 2011, the Korean music industry has been dominated by idols. With top idol groups promoting overseas as part of the Hallyu wave, their influence has spread beyond Asia into Europe and South America as well.

With that said, the “report cards” (aka the album and digital sales) of boy groups and girl groups for this year were compared.

> Idol groups’ impact on the music industry

According to the results of Gaon Chart this year (from January 2nd to October 1st), idols have placed 51 songs out of the top 100 songs on the digital chart.
The idols that make up the top ranks include Hallyu’s top idol groups: Big Bang ,2NE1 etc.

When the album chart was reviewed, it was clear that idols had a stronger influence on album sales than in digital sales. For the album charts from the same period, idol groups had 69 albums out of the top 100, and the entire top 10 (from 1st to 10th) were all albums belonging to idol groups.

<2011 Digital Sales Ranking>(1/2/2011 ~ 10/1/2011)
1. “I Cheated”(Feat. 박봄) – Infinity Challenge GG (G-Dragon & Park Myung Soo)
7. “Tonight” – Big Bang

<2011 Album Sales Ranking>(1/2/2011 ~ 10/1/2011)
4. ‘Big Bang 4th Mini Album’ – Big Bang
11. ‘Big Bang Special Edition’ – Big Bang

[NEWS] BIGBANG ON "5 MUST-HEAR GROUPS" OF NEW YORK DAILY NEWS


Ready to dip your toe into the Korean Wave? Here are the top five South Korean acts that will help immerse you in the world of K-Pop:

Big Bang
After debuting their signature hip-pop sound in 2006, the five-member team dominated the South Korean charts and later did the same in Japan. First topping the charts with the upbeat single "Lies," the band has since become one of Asia's most recognizable acts. And with a collaboration with Major Lazer's Diplo on one song by members G-Dragon and T.O.P. called "Knockout," it seems like Asia's not the only place they're receiving attention.
Download this: "Tonight," a perfect mélange of rock and electronica
with a bumping beat.

[NEWS] YG FAMILY CONCERT IN JAPAN SHOOTING FOR A RECORD 30 BILLION WON IN TICKET SALES



YG Entertainment is shooting for the largest ticket sales in the shortest time in the Korean music industry history.

YG Entertainment will hold a total of 4 concerts titled, ’15th Anniversary YG Family Concert’ with 2 dates in Kyocera Dome in Japan (1/7 and 1/8/2012) and the again 2 dates in Saitama Super Arena near Tokyo (1/21-1/22/2012).

Given the fact that 2NE1, managed by YG Entertainment, has sold out their Japanese tour starting the end of September through the beginning of this month and that Big Bang’s Daesung will be back after 8 months on hiatus after the car accident, YG Family’s first Japanese concert has many aspects that can draw a lot of attention. It’s expected that the tickets will be sold out.

If the concerts in Japan are sold out, it will gather a total of 160,000 in the audience. SM Entertainment has gathered about 150,000 people for the 3 dates in September at Tokyo Dome and this would push their numbers above and beyond.

As verified by Star News, YG Family concert ticket in Japan will sell for 12,800 Japanese Yen, which translates to about 190,000 KRW. If all 160,000 tickets are sold, the ticket sales alone will bring in 30,300,000,000 KRW ($26.26 million at press time).

Such sales would be the largest sum in the shortest time period by any Korean artist or any company brand concert.

The 15th anniversary of YG Entertainment is celebrated with the YG Family Concert in Korea as well, in December this year. On December 3rd and 4th, there will be 3 concerts at the Seoul Gymnastics Stadium with 40,000 audience members. The tickets in Korea will sell for 88,000 KRW per, bringing the total to 3,200,000,000 KRW.

YG Entertainment stated on the 19th, “We will be performing a YG Family Concert in celebration of our 15th anniversary. We will hold three concerts for about 40,000 guests per show at the Olympic Hall in Seoul on December 3rd & 4th, then on January 7th and 8th, perform two shows for about 80,000 guests per concert at the Osaka Colosseum, and finally 2 shows at the Saitama Super Arena on January 21st & 22nd for about 80,000 guests each show.”

‘YG Family Concert’ is an event that has taken place regularly since YG Entertainment was established in 1997. Each of the label’s artists put on individual performance to express their unique talents and skills, and also collaborate to put on a colorful show for their fans. The concert is one in which both the audience and the artists can truly enjoy themselves.

This year is a an especially noteworthy milestone for YG, as they celebrate their 15th anniversary and thus, this year’s YG Family Concert should be that much more phenomenal, filled with new and exciting performances for their fans.

YG Entertainment has also established a new company ‘YGEX’ in collaboration with Japanese agency AVEX, and this is the first time since their ten-year anniversary in 2006 that they are performing a YG Family Concert overseas.

Artists that will be performing at the Family Concert include YG’s eldest hyung Se7en, the talented Gummy, the unique and charismatic 2NE1, and Hallyu idol icons Big Bang who made their debut performance at the 10th anniversary YG Family Concert in 2006. G-Dragon’s concert attendance, however, is still TBD.

There will be some new faces at the concert this year as well. Singer Psy who was a guest at the annual concert last year has now become an official YG Entertainment artist and will be performing on stage as a YG family member along with Epik High‘s Tablo, who has also recently signed a record deal with YG Entertainment and released his first solo album.

Big Bang’s Daesung who has been taking a long break since his unexpected car accident in May will be making his comeback performance at the concert, and it will be a joyous one for fans who have been awaiting this very moment.

Ticket sales for the concert begin on October 27th.
