Big Bang’s T.O.P given a bra at ‘Alive GALAXY Tour 2012' concert?

Footage of Big Bang‘s T.O.P getting caught off-guard by a fan’s special gift at a ‘Alive GALAXY Tour 2012‘ concert has been causing talk online.

The video, which was shot on the 24th in the Philippines, shows T.O.P dancing to the beat on stage and getting close to the crowd to greet his fans. One fan threw out what T.O.P seemed to have assumed was a normal gift of the non-underwear variety.

T.O.P seemed taken aback by the situation, but immediately turned around as if nothing had happened. Big Bang’s backdancers who saw the fan’s “gift” on the floor began to laugh.

Netizens commented, “I’m not sure why you would throw undergarments”, “It’s a good thing he didn’t catch it”, “It looks like the backdancers were more shocked than he was”, and “Did the fan have nothing else to give?”.

Check out video of the moment (~1:25) below!

"Gangnam Style" MV child actor Hwang Min Woo confesses he previously liked Bigbang more than Psy

The dancing child prodigy, Hwang Min Woo, from Psy‘s “Gangnam Style” MV revealed that he previously liked Big Bang more than he liked Psy, but that it all changed after the filming of the music video.

On the October 24th broadcast of MBC‘s ‘Good Day‘, Hwang Min Woo featured as a guest alongside his parents. Hwang Min Woo revealed, “I knew about Psy since I was five years old.” When asked if he liked Psy back then, he replied, “Not so much… I originally liked Big Bang better. But after I got the call to appear on his MV, I started to like Psy ahjusshi. Right now, I like ‘Gangnam Style’ Psy ahjusshi more.”

The child’s father, Hwang Eui Chang also shared, “A representative from Psy’s agency saw Min Woo’s appearance on ‘Star King‘ and introduced the clip to Psy. Psy laughed when he saw it and asked to film a MV together. Min Woo’s appearance was confirmed two days before the MV filming.”

Hwang Min Woo previously showed his amazing talent as a performer on SBS ‘Star King‘ and tvN‘s ‘Korea’s Got Talent 2‘.

Why did T.O.P. whisper in actress Kim So Yeon's ear?

Actress Kim So Yeon revealed her crush for Big Bang‘s T.O.P on the October 23rd episode of ‘Strong Heart‘.

The actress had been on the blockbuster drama ‘IRIS‘ with T.O.P, and when the ‘Strong Heart‘ MCs asked who she wanted to have as her husband on ‘We Got Married‘, she answered she wanted to be with T.O.P.

She also confessed, “I saw T.O.P at the Busan International Film Festival, but I didn’t get to greet him. But after the festival, I met T.O.P at a party. I walked to him like a robot and said, ‘Hi?’. But T.O.P was nice to me. It was loud because of the music, but he whispered, ‘Noona, you’re here’ in my ear. He made me feel more confident after that because all the female actresses got jealous.”

[TWITTER] G-Dragon tweets his thoughts on the "Infinity Challenge" 'Comma' Special

Big Bang‘s G-Dragon tweeted his feelings on the ‘Infinity Challenge‘ ‘Comma’ special.

The 300th episode was named the ‘Comma’ special to express that the members needed to take a small break and reminisce on the past, having heart to heart conversations with one another. After he watched the episode, G-Dragon tweeted PD Kim Tae Ho of ‘Infinity Challenge’ and wrote, “I just saw the ‘comma’ special because I’ve been overseas all this time.. It was so good.. It makes me contemplate on a lot of things. To all the hyungs, the staff and you Fighting! ‘Infinity Challenge’ forever ^^“.

He then tweeted, “What is happiness? I think Big Bang also needs a , (comma) .. Good friends and good memories.. Everyone, good night and be happy.”

Kim Tae Ho replied, “Since I took a break for a week, we have to just go forward no matter what now! Even if we crash into something.. Or trip over something.. Just stupidly go forward~! haha“.

G-Dragon performs “Missing You”, “One of A Kind”, “Crayon” & “Heartbreaker” on Yoo Hee Yeol’s ‘Sketchbook’

As reported earlier, Big Bang‘s G-Dragon appeared on KBS 2TV‘s ‘Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook‘.

This marked the first time in over 3 years for a YG Entertainment artist to appear on a KBS broadcast. After news of G-Dragon’s appearance went public, fans in record numbers raced to obtain tickets for the recording.

One stage he showcased was a collaboration between himself and 2NE1‘s Minzy. The two put on “Missing You“, a song originally featuring Jaurim‘s Kim Yoona as the vocalist, but Minzy put her own fresh spin on the track with her vocals.

Check out the performances below!

“Missing You” ft. Minzy

“One of A Kind” ft. Monster Woo & Bucky

[SCHEDULE] G-Dragon - "You Heeyeul's Sketchbook" featuring MINZY

She wrote, “Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook! Look forward to it on the 19th (Friday) night 12:20 ^^” along with the above photo. In the photo, Minzy is backstage and getting her makeup done.

Minzy was a guest on G-Dragon‘s episode of ‘Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook’, where she performed the song “Missing You“. The original song in “One of a Kind“ features Jaurim‘s Kim Yuna as the vocalist, but Minzy put her own fresh spin on the track with her vocals.

Seungri also says "Don't Hate Me"?

After Psy’s mysterious photo, YG-Life has shared a photo of Big Bang‘s Seungri holding up the same “Don’t Hate Me” sign.

Psy had previously posted an image of himself holding up the sign through his twitter on the 14th, sparking the curiosity of many. With Seungri being the second person to bare the sign, it seems that this may not be a teaser for Psy’s individual release, but perhaps one that involves other artists of YG Entertainment.

The agency commented, “Although we can’t reveal who the third person to carry the sign will be nor what ‘Don’t Hate Me’ is referring to at the moment, we will soon be resolving the curiosity of fans.”

So for now, it seems we must wait patiently to see what meaning the sign holds.

What do you think the sign is referring to?

G-Dragon's hair looks like a duster?

G-Dragon‘s hairstyle has been attracting the attention of fans and netizens as an online community board recently posted a picture comparing his hair to that of a pink and blue duster.

The picture is said to have been created by an elementary school student and is taken from G-Dragon’s hairstyle during his promotions for “Crayon“, when his hair was pink and blue similar to the pictured duster.

The unusually matching colors of the duster and G-Dragon’s hair made fans and netizens laugh, as well as commend Big Bang‘s ability to digest such a wide variety of unique hairstyles.

Upon seeing the picture, netizens commented, “Whoever posted this has great eyes“, “The synchronization of his hairstyle and the duster is 120%“, “I applaud G-Dragon’s attempts at changing his style.”

G-Dragon recently returned as a solo act after 3 years with his album One Of a Kind and title song “Crayon.”

Bigbang wraps their first concerts in Indonesia

Popular group Big Bang successfully completed their first concert in Indonesia. Their ‘Alive Galaxy Tour 2012‘ brought 30,000 fans to Jakarta’s Mata Elang International Stadium. reportedly the largest Indoor Stadium in South East Asia.

G-Dragon and Taeyang transform into Indonesian dancers

Big Bang‘s G-Dragon and Taeyang revealed their Indonesian dancing skills.

On the 13th, G-Dragon tweeted, “Swag kkkkkk” and revealed the above picture.

The picture showed G-Dragon and Taeyang wearing blangkon and patterned sarong while posing as Indonesian. The two idols created a comical picture with Taeyang playing the seruling and G-Dragon posing with a stereotypical Indonesian dance move.

After seeing the funny picture, the netizens commented, “I thought they were just natives…” and “It’s even funnier because they are serious.”

It seems Big Bang‘s Taeyang and the girls of 2NE1 will be returning to the music scene in November!

According to information revealed to ‘Star News’ by YG Entertainment‘s Yang Hyun Suk, Taeyang and 2NE1 are both set to release new projects next month.

.....

On Taeyang’s solo comeback, he commented, “For Taeyang’s case, he was originally going to to release a solo album this past summer with G-Dragon and start promotions… He worked with American producers and had completed the new album. However, he, as well as I, were both not completely satisfied and thus decided not to release it at the time.”

“Taeyang is currently reworking on the solo album and may be able to release a new song as a single first in November… I’m a fan of Taeyang myself, so I am highly anticipating the stage for his new solo song,” he said, and wrapped up by adding, “In October, YG’s Epik High as well as Lee Hi (Lee Ha Yi) will also reveal new songs… As we’re also expecting 2NE1 and Taeyang promotions on top of all that, we are already looking forward to enjoying the end of the year with fans.”

It seems those who were able to obtain tickets were able to witness new softer sides of the singer as he planned a variety of never-before-seen performances.

One stage he showcased was a collaboration between himself and 2NE1‘s Minzy. The two put on “Missing You“, a song originally featuring Jaurim‘s Kim Yoona as the vocalist, but Minzy put her own fresh spin on the track with her vocals.

G-Dragon also performed another version of “CRAYON“, with a band sound, in addition to showcasing stages for “One of a Kind” and the unforgettable hit, “This Love“.

Filming for ‘Sketchbook’ took place on the evening of the 9th. The seats for the shooting was handed out by lottery, and it is said the ratio of obtaining a ticket was 75:1, setting a record for the amount of ticket applications received by the show.

The episode of ‘Sketchbook’ will air on the 19th, so stay tuned!
