GD, ‘I Don’t Know Where It Ends’


Most of the songs G-Dragon has written have gone on to be huge hits (‘Daebak’ s). The song ‘Lies’ on Big Bang’s first mini album (released in 2007) which he had originally written for himself became a massive hit, as did ‘Last Farewell’, ‘Haru Haru’ and ‘Sunset Glow’ to follow.
”Even though people kept telling us we’d become ‘a huge hit’, it didn’t feel like it at all because we weren’t allowed to go out. The only places we’d go were broadcasting stations, living quarters and practice rooms. We were still nothing but kids and people continued to say “what do we do with them?”. Even though we kept getting number 1, we didn’t feel any different. When the audience cheered and clapped for us, we just thought ‘it’s only because we’re singers’. Whenever we went on stage people would clap, but we wouldn’t be able tell at all since we’d be singing.”
There’s a saying that celebrities often hear, and repeat to themselves over and over again: “The next one is the most important”.
”I think that’s what’s hardest about being a celebrity. Even if we do really well, it’s always ‘next time is more important’. Normal people might think being a celebrity is easy, but it really isn’t.”
Even when they’re on hiatus, celebrities can’t let their guard down. Anxiety in the form of thoughts like ‘I must try even harder’, ‘I can’t give up now’, ‘The next one is more important’ continue to taunt them.
”I just don’t know where it ends. Whenever we see fans who say ‘Big Bang helps us build our dreams’, I realise ‘Man this really isn’t just a joke’. I feel increased responsibility.”
However the Big Bang members aren’t really the type for excessive breaks anyway. When they’re given a holiday, they spend the first couple of days at home before crawling back to the practice rooms because they have nothing to do.
”It’s not like we plan it or anything but even during our days off we see each other dancing or writing lyrics…Practice is like a regular part of our lives now. That’s why we write more songs than others and have more to choose from. I think we’ve come this far because we don’t want to disappoint our fans.”
Even through the times where he had no choice but to run, G-Dragon learned to keep his balance with the thought and determination not to disappoint his fans. We finally start to feel and understand what it was he ran so hard for.

Do you remember Jang Hyun Seung?

Member Jang Hyun Seung, who got eliminated out of group Big Bang during the process of making of the group, has received much attentioned recently with the rebroadcasting of Big Bang’s beginning-of-debut documentary.
A documentary ‘Real Docu Big Bang‘ was aired in 2006 on GomTV, featuring Jang Hyun Seung being eliminated, even though he was popular amongst female fans for his good looks, hence making Big Bang a 5-member group.
With that, 5th May was made the ‘Big Bang Day’ by tvN and they reaired the documentary named it ‘Big Bang The Beginning’.
And recently, on his minihompy, Jang Hyun Seung wrote a post saying ‘In the midst of preparing for an audition’, and attached a video of him dancing. Since the video was filmed in a choreography teams, fans are guessing that he had came out of YG Entertainment and has been working as a backdancer.

YG Message, April 30th 2009

Translation by Ria(mooncake)@ http://ygworld.wordpress.com
TAKE WITH FULL CREDITS

Hello. This is Yang Hyun Seuk.
This is my new message after 8 months from my last message. bow~
2001? When I began to write messages to Messages from YG where I share my thoughts to the fans without a speech.
A lot of announcements have been raising up high expectation of fans but neither any of them came on time. I will take the responsibility and raise my chin to accept all the blame being thrown to me.
In future to avoid the same situation again, we are working on having a long-term work with the news, who are the first to deliver any new announcements.
Speeches and messages from YG are a “promise” to fans who are trusting us.
We will be doing “advance information” by making press announcements which will reveal the official news of different situation for others to follow. ^^
About GDragon’s album…

Jiyong’s album which should have been released in April, needs to be postponed. 2 months ago I got news from people in my circle that Jiyong has been very tired and I decided to meet with Jiyong and we talked about him being sent for a counseling. His condition is deeper of a slump and depression than I thought.
The reason behind it is because there wasn’t a real vacation for him ever since he debuted. This caused a big problem for him physically and mentally. His preparation for his first solo album is adding more stress to it.
It was said that their promotion activities would have ended in February with the “Big Show Concert” but they had to continue working on their new album,which should be released in Japan in June. They are also busy filming CF’s. There weren’t any time to release Jiyong’s solo album in April to be honest.
I’m feeling very sorry by looking at Jiyong how very tired he is. I always expected good results in what ever he is working on and I never considered how much time he spent on it or in which condition the environment was.
That’s why I decided and told him: ” Jiyong ah, it doesn’t matter when you release your album. It doesn’t matter even if it comes out next year. Do it when you are ready and in your own peace.” He is also the one I gave responsibility on working of 2NE1’s album.
I believe that the fans who have been waiting eagerly for his solo album to come out will surely think the same way as I do, even if the issues right now are important.
It’s been about 1 month and Jiyong came back with his usual self. And lately he has been very cheerful working on his own album again.
The album might come out as a minialbum with 7 songs, as we think it. The reason to it is that on this album, new composers have been participating in it. Fans will surely enjoy the music with different feelings to it. The 7 songs expresses Jiyong’s special music style which is his own. I’m very satisfied with it.
Currently Jiyong is having a vacation in Europe (for about 8 days) in regarding for the concept and style of his first solo album. The work of the album itself is on his last step. This coming June - July will be the time for Big Bang to release and promote their new Japan album. Jiyong’s album will be released in August.
We hope that the fans will understand.
Jiyong’s composition’s misunderstandings…
There were rumours and misunderstandings about Jiyong’s participation as a composer with other composers lately.
As an example: ” A collaborated compose of a song is the same as completing the whole composed song. Does Jiyong’s name be credit to the song alone?” and he doesn’t even know about it? What did he composed then?
To come up with the right words and melody is a very important part of producing a song. Until now all the songs that has been under his name are 100% composed by him. The rap, lyrics and melody are from him.
In YG, normally before the melody to a song will be produced, there would have to be a beat first. Making the right beat is a very normal work and in just a day there would be 2-3 beats tuned in.
Jiyong will pick from hundreds of beats done by composers he likes and he will work on the melody and lyrics at home.
After he is done working on it, he goes to the YG studio to make his own recording. If the song is finished, the other members of Big Bang will be called out to have a discussion if the new song will be added to the album. If all of them share the same opinion, they will start practicing and recording.
Since the beats are not done by Jiyong himself, we call this a collaborated composition. (Same goes for TOP’s composed songs too.)
I hope that there won’t be any more misunderstanding regarding this.
-2NE1 official debut schedules-
We introduced about a month our new YG feminine group with a collaborated CM song “Lollipop” along with Big Bang.
On May 6 2NE1 will formally debut with a digital single called “FIRE”.
“Fire” which was produced by the same person who composed “Only look at me” and “Disco” sang by Uhm Jung-Hwa. Teddy wrote the lyrics to “Fire” with a sense of fashion style and the music video will be released soon.
The melody of “Fire” reminds of Africa with a mixture of hip-hop SYNTH. Easily to say like fast hip-hop reggae.
This time we are working together with Shaun and Aimee again who also choreographed “Only look at me” by TaeYang for the music video of “FIre”. The director who is Seo Sung Hyn, he is the best MV director of in Korea and the staff are working to make the appearance of the video highly satisfying. Everyone can’t wait to see the result.
“Fire” will be shown in May 1 with a preview of 20 seconds at the official 2NE1 homepage to the public to see and everyday 10 seconds will be added to it.On May 5 there will be another preview with a 1 minute one and on May 6 the official whole song with the MV will be public.
“Fire” will also have two versions of music video. A normal one and a REMIX one. REMIX and not RE-EDIT. It has the same identical music only different scenes. The two music video’s is expected to seek the world (I hope with a good result^^) with a lot of fun in it.
The album of 2NE1 contains 10 songs which is in the progress of finishing. The album will be announced in July after the first digital single is out. In October they will start with their activities until the year-end. It is also planned to do more activities for the next year.
It has been announced in 2002 that a female group will be presented by YG and it was a real long time for 2NE1 to debut. It made me a bit tense how people will react to them now. But I know there are alot of YG fans cheering on them.
The talks have become to be long for a day.
This news is a little speech to give out today for everyone.
Goodbye. bow~
