[NEWS] TaeYang is Envious of 2NE1 members’ Talents
Popular idol group, Big Bang’s TaeYang (born Dong Young-Bae) said that he envies the members of fellow YG idol group, 2NE1!
TaeYang said, “Each member of 2NE1 is uniquely talented, which is enviable.”
Big Bang, which is a member of YG Entertainment, introduced their juniors, girl group 2NE1, with the CF and MV for Cyon’s Lollipop phone. In an interview with “Sol,” for his song, “Wedding Dress,” he mentioned each of the 2NE1 members and praised each for their talents.
“I envy Park Bom and her unique and outstanding voice,” he said, “Especially in their song, I Don’t Care, her voice is distinct and unique, and the chorus part which she sang is really good. Park Bom’s voice is popular even before her debut with the group, and her voice here lends a youthful tone to the song.”
After Park Bom, the group’s leader, CL, and the group’s maknae, Minzy were also praised, saying, “CL’s rap skills, plus Minzy’s dancing skills makes a song have sensual power.”
“For live performances, I find that Park Sandara is funny and always has the best expressions,” he says of Dara, one of the group’s vocalists, “I get worried because she practices all night, but her hard work is worth it, because Dara’s expression on-stage, are the most wonderful.”
This year, TaeYang with the rest of Big Bang has been going back and forth from South Korea and Japan. Earlier this month, the group released their third Japanese single, “Let Me Hear Your Voice,” which topped the Oricon Daily Charts on the day of its release.
He later told about how he gets recognized in Japan already, “A lot of people in Japan recognize me when I walk down the streets. And always wearing my caps makes me more recognizable, I guess. We always have fun broadcasting in Japan. But because we are recognized already, we can’t go out as often as before. It has pros and cons really.”
Big Bang would be moving between the two countries to participate in award ceremonies. On the 21st, TaeYang and Big Bang leader, G-Dragon would participate in Mnet Asian Musc Awards, or MAMA, and 26 days later, would fly back to Japan for Nihon TV’s Best Hits Song Festival

Initially NHK explained that GDragon was not in sync with the background music, but Big Bang Japanese fans have responded with “it’s impossible”. Then NHK came out again to clarify that it was a technical fault on NHK part after checking their VTR.
NHK said that they will be posting their apology post on ‘Music Japan’ homepage and the performance will be edited and re-broadcasted on 29th November.

Korean model Daul Kim, 20, was found dead in Paris this morning, NY Mag’s The Cut reports. Her cause of death has not yet been confirmed, but sources told the magazine she had committed suicide.
Kim was a favorite among fashion followers for her gorgeous editorials (in i-D, Dazed & Confused, and British, Korean, and Japanese Vogue, among others) and witty, honest interviews.
She maintained a blog, I Like to Fork Myself, for over two years, in which she shared her favorite videos, pictures, and insights about the modeling industry. Daul’s last posting, on her blog, had the headline: say hi to forever, featuring a Jim Rivers video whom she thought was the “best track forever”.
Daul’s modeling agents at Next issued a statement: “She was a top model and a great friend to all of us at Next. Please respect her family’s privacy at this time of sadness. We will all miss her very much.”
Although rookie group BEAST has been closely associated with their sunbae 2PM in the past for their self-declared beastly image and their performance of Again and Again, the six-member group is attempting to mimic a different male idol group for the 2009 MAMA.
Despite the sharp distinction between BEAST and Big Bang, the boys have agreed to deliver a special performance of the latter's hit song Lies on Mnet's award show. Netizens are especially curious to see how Jang Hyun Seung will fare as he almost debuted with Big Bang, but was eliminated at the last minute.
BEAST's agency stated, "All the members have always enjoyed Big Bang's music so they came to an agreement on performing Lies. They are afraid of ruining Big Bang's stellar live performances so they have been staying up rehearsing all night."
A representative added, "On the night of MAMA, we heard Big Bang's G-Dragon and Taeyang will be performing on stage as well. (Jang) Hyun Seung said, 'After we perform to Big Bang's song, I want to receive an evaluation from the hyungs.'"
With an impressive line-up that is continuing to build, the YG carnival MAMA may actually be worth the watch. Are you excited for BEAST's rendition of Lies? Do you think they will do justice for Big Bang's song?
