[NEWS ] BIGBANG IS THE TOP IDOL FANS WANT TO SPEND VALENTINE'S DAY WITH

 
According to portal site Geumyoung Karaoke, SNSD and BIGBANG were the #1 idols fans wanted to spend their Valentine’s Day with.

Starting January 27th, the site held a 6-day poll asking users to nominate their top idol choices for a Valentine’s date. Based on votes from 537 people (321 males, 216 females in their 20s-30s), 41% chose SNSD, while IU raked in 32%. SNSD is now enjoying their third consecutive year at the top of the poll.

As for the males, BIGBANG enjoyed a triumphant return to the top with 27% of the votes, thanks to the ‘double combo’ appeal of Seungri and GD&TOP’s albums. The group had won in 2009, but lost in 2010 to ballad idol group 2AM.

Continuing with runner-ups for the male idols, 2PM came in second with 18%, B2ST took third with 16%, and 2AM fell to fourth place with 15%.

[NEWS] G-DRAGON FEELS UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN HE GETS CALLED A GENIUS

Big Bang’s leader G-Dragon is, without a doubt, one of the hottest icons of Korean pop culture today. Possessing an abundance of skills and talents, the boy also owns a modern-day Midas touch, as everything he creates immediately becomes a coveted trend by the next day.

Though he’s only 23 years old, he’s managed to garner enough experience to be praised by both pop culture critics and industry representatives as ‘the musician whose future they anticipate the most’.

Considering all his accomplishments, he sounds like an intimidating figure – but when the interviewer met the golden boy, G-Dragon proved to be a thoughtful, modest soul who laughed shyly and had a tendency to bite his lips when in thought.

[NEWS] G-DRAGON HAS A VERY SEXY EYE


Teen Top L.Joe admires G-Dragon in recent interview.

"I began to like G-Dragon from boy band Big Bang from when he promoted his song "Heartbreaker." He has a very sexy gaze. I had the chance to say hello to him in the waiting room and I was more nervous than when I gave my debut stage performance. Seriously, that was the first time I thought a guy looked so cool. I couldn't say anything to him because I was so nervous and when I get another chance to talk to him..  Uhm, I will ask him to memorize my name."
