[NEWS] Actor Lee Soo Hyuk Reveals his Close Relationship with G-Dragon and T.O.P
Lee Soo Hyuk, G-Dragon, and T.O.P know each other and have formed a club, how did it happen?
On the June 12 broadcast of SBS’ “Strong Heart” Lee Soo Hyuk made an appearance with Jung Joo Ri, Kim Yoo Mi, Lee Chang Myung, and Infinite’s Sung Gyu. It was Jung Joo Ri who revealed the relationship between the three when he asked, “I hear that you and Big Bang’s G-Dragon and T.O.P are close. I’m wondering how you all met?”
Lee Soo Hyuk explained, “Since debut, Big Bang’s G-Dragon, T.O.P and I have been members of an exclusive club. The name of our group is called ‘Nuthang’ which means a new idea that is who we are.”
When asked what Nuthang meetings were like he responded, “Usually when we want to go out one of us will call the rest. Though there isn’t much to say about our meetings, we mostly drink and drink and drink. We also mostly like to watch movies and T.O.P and I usually talk about acting. There even was a time when G-Dragon had made fun of my acting.”
He talked about his feelings about acting, “Ever since I was little I dreamed of becoming an entertainer, back then I just learned by playing. I’m still like a rookie player with my childhood dreams, but it is a step in the right direction with a great group of friends that look so good.”
Nuthang is pretty close with Big Bang as well as 2NE1. There have been times when they’ve assisted with the group’s styles. Lee Soo Hyuk has appeared in 2NE1’s music video for “It Hurts” and even acted with Big Bang’s Daesung in the drama “What’s Up.”

[NEWS] Big Bang Gate Draws Fans with State of the Art Technology
Big Bang’s ‘Big Bang Gate’ is drawing crowds in Gangnam station.
The Big Bang gate is a promotion area for Big Bang’s special edition album Still Alive, which was released on June 6. The gate plays videos and music from the album for more effective promotion of the album.
A rep from You and I Media, which was in charge of related affairs, said, “The Big Bang gate, which was set up on June 2, has been drawing fans from inside and outside Korea, and overseas media outlets have also been showing great interest.”
Ever since YG Entertainment announced the opening of the Big Bang gate through its official webpage, Big Bang’s fan communities and blogs have seen a flood of posts about fan visits to the gate. More fans are expected to visit the Big Bang gate, located in Gangnam’s Shinbundang line, in the future.
The Big Bang gate plays high definition videos on the clear LCDs set up in the columns holding up a giant arched structure, and displays the CD of Big Bang’s new album as well as the clothes the members wore while filming their music video inside. The directional speakers installed in the gate play songs from the special album also.
An official said, “The Big Bang gate is a new type of promotion that uses state of the art clear LCDs to entertain the eyes and ears of the group’s fans, and this is the first time a group has used such methods in promotion. The clear LCD is a new type of medium that uses state of the art technology, and we used it for the promotional area because it fits the image of Big Bang well.”
You and I Media succeeded in using clear LCDs, developed by Samsung Displays, in advertising media with the cooperation of Cheil Worldwide and KT, and installed subway ads in the National University of Education station, Sinsa station and Apgujeong station using the technology in March, the first in the world. The firm plans to continue to use the clear LCD for a variety of content.
