*Will G-Dragon make it to 250,000 copies of album sales for his first solo album?
Already 180,000 copies of G-Dragon's first solo album 'Heartbreaker' has been sold(up to 9/7), and they've ordered another 50,000 copies.
YG Entertainment first ordered only 100,000 copies for G-Dragon's solo album, but then they ordered another 100,000 on 8/26 because all the other copies were sold.
Even though it's been over three weeks since the album's been released, he's selling atleast 10,000 copies of his albums a day. If this keeps going on, we're predicting that he'll be able to sell atleast 250,000 copies.
(Reason why there is a difference between what YG says and Hanteo charts say is because Hanteo charts do not include ALL the offline and online stores in Korea; the ones sold overseas are not included in Hanteo charts either.) http://news.donga.com/fbin/output?n=200909080237
*Lotte Cinema is doing a special event 'Birth Night Party' to celebrate their 10th anniversary. They are having a talk show with Kim Haneul(actress) and Wang Sukhyun(actor) and a mini concert inviting 2NE1, G-Dragon, After School etc. This event will start on October 16 at 11:30PM until the next day at 4:30AM. http://www.segye.com/Articles/SPN/ENTERTAI...=20090907002426
*YG Music Service opened. YG is selling songs at their own website(http://music.ygeshop.com). They are selling very very high quality music (each song atleast over 30mb) in various different versions:
-AR(All recorded, the song on the cd)
-MR(Music Recorded, can hear everything but the vocals, so this is what they use on live stages)
-ACCA(Acapella, no instrumental, you can hear only the voices)
-INST(Instrumental, no vocals or choruses)
-PACKAGE(all the four in one, 13% cheaper)
Prices are high- they are around 1000-1200 won which is about a little over a dollar per version of the song. If you buy it in a package it's about 4000won(approx $4). They are planning on updating all the previous albums that YG released(which probably means like 1TYM, Jinusean etcetc). You can hear a 30sec perview of the songs. They only have Heartbreaker, Friend(TOP & Taeyang's OST album), 2NE1's first mini album and Gara Gara Go in service. http://www.bbvipz.com/bbs/view.php?id=vip&...sc&no=17760
*G-Dragon is planning on continuing his activities for his first solo album atleast until November; Taeyang is planning to release his second solo album in late October, or early November. There is a possibility that they will perform together on the year-end performances. http://star.mt.co.kr/view/stview.php?no=20...1&outlink=1
*Today(09/09) he will be on another radio show at 12.20pm(KST)
a bit of the translation
He is saying something like that: " the last time before summer is ending..enjoy the escape from normal life...that should be good"
Big Bang GDragon wrote a song after experiencing a heartbreak from the girl who gave him his first kiss
Big Bang member GDragon reveals the time during his school days where he sings about his heartbreak on MBC Every1 ‘Star The Secret’.
GDragon started out as a child talent at 5 years old, and was training under YG Entertainment since elementary school days. But as compared to his singer days, there was not much revealed to the public about his pre-debut days. There was a point in the past when GDragon was called the genius rapper, gaining spotlight and he had dreamed to be a hiphop boy.
GDragon had debuted in when he was in elementary year 6 in the project album for indie and over round rappers called ‘Year 2001 Korea’ as the main rapper.
But amongst the other rappers who worked with him in the album, there was much objection to having a 13-year-old as the main rapper on the album. It was a hard time for GDragon with all the accusations and objections, but after the album was released, all that had disappeared as GDragon’s capabilities became known to many. And the producer in charge back then said, “How can an elementary school student rap like this? Is his mother a black? He had pre-natal hip hop training? It was like he had something special about him.”
There was also a video revealed featuring him in a musical when he was in middle school. There were also photos of him looking a little rusty and not so fashionista when he was in middle school revealed, and also the song ‘That person’ he wrote about his heartbreak after breaking up with the girl whom he had his first kiss – all that will be revealed on the show on 16th September.
GDragons Got-mi-nam cap worn on SBS Inkigayo gains interests
Big Bang leader GDragon has won his 2nd Mutizen away on SBS Inkigayo with his solo debut Heartbreaker on 13th September.
And while on the stage receiving over his trophy, the cap that GDragon worn had caught the attention of many netizens. On the cap, it writes 곧미남 (Got-mi-nam) and netizens are curious what it means.
곧미남(Got-mi- nam) is actually a parody word of 꽃미남(Ggot-mi-nam)which stands for flower boy. Only that Got-Mi-Nam’ is short for 곧 미남이 될 것which means To become a pretty boy at once.
Netizens were so curious about what the words meant that Got-Mi-Nam instantly became the #1 searched keywords on portal sites. At first, many thought they saw the words as 골(骨)미남 (Gol-mi-nam)which meant bony pretty boy but after the meaning to the words were clarified, fans had a good laugh about it.
Meanwhile, GDragon has won #1 with Heartbreaker for the 2nd time on SBS Inkigayo, he has also won #1 for 3 consecutive weeks on KBS Music Bank living up to the phenomenon of the GDragon tsunami.
