BIGBANG Fans Are So Mad At Yang Hyun Suk For CL’s Comeback Date

BIGBANG Fans Are So Mad At Yang Hyun Suk For CL’s Comeback Date

Following the release of a teaser for CL’s solo comeback, titled “Lifted” — scheduled for release on August 19 — BIGBANG fans have taken up arms against YG.

When YG Entertainment previously released a “Who’s Next” teaser with the date August 19, BIGBANG fans thought it would certainly be a BIGBANG comeback, as August 19 is the date of the group’s 10th anniversary. BIGBANG had even said at a recent press conference that they were sorry about the delayed studio album and that they would “make a comeback as soon as possible.”

But YG is nothing if not unpredictable.

When YG Entertainment announced that August 19 would be the date of CL’s comeback, both international and Korean fans couldn’t believe it. Right alongside excitement for what will be CL’s official American debut was equal ire at what YG did to BIGBANG’s last anniversary before impending military enlistment for some of the members.

The hashtag #양현석_은퇴길만_어 (literally “Yang Hyun Suk walks the road to retirement,” to the effect of “retire Yang Hyun Suk”) even started trending in Seoul.

Meanwhile, BIGBANG’s most recent studio album was “Remember,” which was released in 2008, although the group has had several mini album and single releases since then.

BIGBANG takes part in UNICEF donation project in celebration of 10th anniversary of debut


[엑스포츠뉴스=정지원 기자] Group BIGBANG is carrying out a celebratory donation project with UNICEF, in celebration of the 10th anniversary of their debut.

The project between BIGBANG and UNICEF was planned in order to promote UNICEF’s “celebratory donation” program that helps people spend their special days such as graduation, admission to schools, wedding, and employment all the more meaningfully. BIGBANG will encourage donation by implementing the program along with UNICEF.

Notably, August 8 of 2016 is the birthday of BIGBANG’s leader G-DRAGON and August 19 is the 10th anniversary of BIGBANG’s debut. On August 20, BIGBANG is holding a concert that celebrates the 10th anniversary. To spend those special days all the more meaningfully with fans, BIGBANG decided to take part in the donation project.

In a special video clip created for the project, BIGBANG talks about the day when they made debut 10 years ago, the day when they took No.1 in a TV music show for the first time, and the day of their first-ever concert, expressing gratitude for fans’ unchanged support and love for BIGBANG.

YG Entertainment said, “The project to be implemented with UNICEF was planned in order to reward fans’ constant support and love for BIGBANG for the past 10 years and to celebrate BIGBANG’s 10th anniversary in the most meaningful way. BIGBANG made donations on every special day and the ‘celebratory donation’ project with UNICEF will be a meaningful and special occasion to remember and reward fans’ love”.

Recently, BIGBANG has actively communicated with fans in a variety of projects such as a movie and exhibition, in celebration of the 10th anniversary of their debut. On August 20, BIGBANG will hold 10th anniversary concert “0.TO.10” at Sangam-dong World Cup Stadium in Seoul.
