[News] Dalmatian ''The restaurant ahjumma recognizes us after 7 months into our debut''

Six-member male group Dalmatian (Inati 30 • Day Day 28 • Dari 27 • Jeesu 21 • Daniel 20 • Youngwon 21) has been gaining popularity as of lately. Last year on September, they made their debut with the digital single ‘Round One’ but didn’t gain the attention they deserved as the skilled group they are. However, after 7 months passed, they are the artists to look out for in reaching the top of the music industry. Dalmatian, who is promoting “The Man Opposed” after releasing their 1st mini album and have ranked within the first half of various music charts. Their member Daniel said, “Now if we walk on the streets, there are people who recognize us. We still have various images we want to show. Please anticipate us even more.”

-The responses to the title song are hot
“When we coincidentally hear our song while walking down a street, we think ‘Ah…we’re being loved.’ Every time that happens, we’re determined to work even harder.” (Inati)

“Not too long ago, the ahjumma (older lady) at a restaurant nearby our dorm knew our song ‘The Man Opposed.’ She even gave us more rice and side dishes. It’s fascinating to think that people know our song.” (Jeesu)

“Lately, there’s a saying we say amongst the members. ‘There is no tomorrow. Today is the greatest moment of my life.’ Since this album could be our last, we promote hard with that motivation.” (Dari)

-You exposed your bodies in the album jacket photos.
“When we did the album jacket photo shoot, Youngwon’s body was glowing. His skin is whiter than those who are white. He’s a snowman.” (Daniel)

“Day Day always works out a lot on a regular basis. Even if our schedule ends late at night and we come home late, he still works out. Beyond a six pack, he has an eight pack. Dari also has a good body. That’s why we exposed it confidently.” (Inati)

-Last month, you held a showcase with the release of the mini album.
“It was on February 14th. We were so nervous in having our first debut showcase. It was touching singing in front of many fans.” (Day Day) 

“When we were singing the ending song, I felt like I was going to cry. I thought it would be weird if I cried by myself so I held it in. but when the showcase ended and we were wiping off our sweat backstage, my eyes got teary seeing the hyungs. We didn’t say anything as we quietly wiped off our sweat and tears.” (Daniel)

-You also had your first fan signing since your debut.
“We were nervous more than any live stage performance since we get to see our fans up close and talk to them at that spot. My palms were sweaty so I kept letting go of the permanent marker. There’s also a member who spent all night practicing their signature.” (Youngwon)

-Recently on KBS 2TV “Music Bank,” Daniel got hit by Inati’s arm and was bleeding.
“There’s a part in the choreography where I pretend to hit Daniel. However, I couldn’t measure the distance correctly and hit Daniel. I thought I hit him lightly but seeing Daniel’s mouth bleeding, I was really surprised. There was a moment caught where I was surprised on the monitor. I was sorry and I apologized but Daniel said ‘It would have been a bigger issue if I got a nose bleed. Sorry hyung.’” (Inati)

-Your future plans
“Before we released this album, we had a lot of discussion. The members prepared a lot in participating in writing the lyrics as well as composing the songs. Our debut song ‘Round One’ was an introduction This is just the beginning for Dalmatian. We will always be an upgraded Dalmatian each and every day.” (Youngwon)

[NEWS]The reasons of Big Bang dominations

The empty space that they left for 2 years and 3 months come to naught since “TONIGHT” not only rose to the top of the charts on the release day but the album also garnered more than 100,000 sales in a week.

Coupled with “The Big Bang Show” by SBS, their popularity has ascended to the top during this period. They are not only well received in South Korea but also in Japan. Before they made their comeback, Uniqlo, had also invited them as endorser and the clothes become hit-sellers both in Japan and Korea markets.

Their album is not only popular in Asia but they even captured 3rd spot on Billboard World Album Chart without any promotion done in America which also symbolizes the advancement of Hallyu star into the world market. Debuted for 5 years, they have gradually become top stars in showbiz which is dominated by the ‘idols’. 

Not only that they belong to one of the biggest entertainment companies in Korea but their music is also very well-known among the public. Music critics love to evaluate their music too. The different activities that each member takes up have also formed a great contrast with other male idol groups. Now, we want to ask why we are so attracted by these 5 men- G-Dragon, T.O.P., Taeyang, Daesung and Seungri.

Their relationship is consolidated after 5 years

BIGBANG was the brainchild of YG Entertainment president, Yang Hyun Suk. Originally he wanted to create a band which could fill in the gap of the music industry. What he thought the showbiz was lacking were singers who can sing well and those who have strong individual colours. 

The birth of Gummy and BIG MAMA have satiated public desire but there were still no particular bands that carried distinct individual colours, so he decided to create a band with ‘musician images’ for all of them. But they didn’t achieve success immediately subsequent to their debut.

Although they released 3 singles in 4 months, their Hip Hop and R&B style did not gain much support from the public since the showbiz was captured by idols who gave visionary pleasure. It was rare and distant for a boy band which put music production as priority to be popular at that period.

The turning point was marked after 1 year of their debut when they released their 1st mini album ‘Always’ (2007). The title song, ‘Lie’ captured the attention of the public at once and they had also been sweeping local music charts. Since then, the ‘BIGBANG wave’ has been rampant until now.

From ‘Last Farewell’, ‘Sunset Glow’, ‘Haru Haru’ until the newly released ‘Tonight’, all of the songs have been victorious throughout the time. Once they have decided to take this path, they have not given up easily. They have been working hard after their 1st success. Despite the fact that they already topped the showbiz, they are still doing the same things that they have been insisting on.

Normally, idol groups which have debuted for 5 years would possibly get into conflicts with the company or are forced to be disbanded for different reasons. However, they are different from other groups since the further they walk along, the more solid their relationship is.

Being the song writers… That is the decisive matter

BIGBANG has the will as well as the ability to become the musicians. In 2007, electronic music they produced has started the Electronica wave. They facilitated the rhythm created by Hip- Hop and also with the adoption of Electronica in their music which sparked new interest among the younger generation.

Although, Electronica has become popular in the showbiz, back in those days, only girl groups like SNSD, Wonder Girls and the top band SG Wannabe employed some Electronica music in their songs. It also explains the reason BIGBANG, the group that combines Electronica with new genres has garnered such a big amount of attention from the public.

The hardcore fans of Electronica are the base of BIGBANG’s popularity. Recently, in the debate of which singers have the best vocal power, idols are compared in terms of their outlooks as well as their vocal power and once again, local Korea showbiz and Billboard once again prove that Electronica genre is vogue.

Such kind of trend was set in the second half of 2000. On this basis, the various members of BIGBANG have showed us their ability to compose their own music, like their famous song ‘Lie’ which is composed by their leader G-Dragon. When he has been participating in song composing, he has been growing as well.

In the new album, he will be responsible for the production of all the songs and will also collaborate with other famous composers. That is why we are anticipating it. Whenever they promote new songs, they want to introduce something new and tell us new stories. It is the reason why they are different from other ‘idols’ in terms of both of their ‘clothing’ and ‘choreography’.

Why we call them BIGBANG is defined by the criteria given by the music critics. Most often, critics do not find any resemblance between BIGBANG and other idols. They put forth their criticism by evaluating BIGBANG's self-composed songs and how these can be compared with their own views on music. The most important factor that keeps the singers running on the path is the quality of their music and BIGBANG has not lost it. 

The top fashionista

They initiated such a wave not only by their music which they have changed the perception of the public towards the concept of idols since it is abstract if we compare their achievement with other artists, their fashion is also ahead of others which is also their competitive edge.

Their attires have also become the public icon. BIGBANG has definitely set the trend of fashion. They did not only promote merely their songs but also paid great attention to their clothing during their famous songs promotions such as ‘Lie’ and ‘Last Farewell’. They have used brand-name products from time to time. Thus, they established their own fashion style.

If any shop claimed that they were selling ‘BIGBANG style’ clothes, their products would definitely sold out. However, the costumes which are worn by the artists of SM or JYP, etc are ready made by their own companies or by other assigned companies so it is hard to head the trend in such a fierce competition.

The difficulty lies in they cannot simply buy the clothes they wear on the stage without any deep consideration. In fact, what BIGBANG wear are chosen based on what can match the style of their music and they are very practical too. It is exactly what people producing Hip Hop insist on, to combine the trendiest items with street style.

It explains why BIGBANGs fashion looks different. They are not the ones called by the youngsters as ‘handsome guys’. This generation would follow the style of BIGBANG too which shows how closely they are connected with their idols. They do not feel embarrassed in doing so.

They have left no emptiness even when they were in hiatus

The principal reason that they have been keeping their great popularity in the local showbiz is their sustaining individual activities. Since the showbiz has transformed into a digital one, the popularity of an artist is defined by how well they score in various music charts.

It is not easy for the groups to keep their fame with the old songs but BIGBANG have conducted a variety of solo activities. Moreover, they have also come up with the idea of forming a duet. For the members who are talented in acting, just let them take part in filming and other members can also participate in TV dramas and variety shows.

All of these activities enable the fans to be able to see them throughout 365 days. It is how BIGBANG work it out. Although it has been 2 years and 3 months after all of them gather under the name of BIGBANG again but we don’t feel like they were away from the local showbiz for a long time since each of them has released solo songs or albums.

Daesung has taken part in variety shows and T.O.P has participated in films, even Seungri could be seen in a musical. Moreover, in order to pave way for their comeback, their company has started their promotion since last December by producing GD&T.O.P duet album and then produced Seungri’s solo album in January.

Hence, when we witness their comeback in February, we did not feel unfamiliar at all. Even after releasing of 3 singles, 4 mini album and 2 full-length albums, the popularity of BIGBANG is still high in Korea. Whenever they face difficulties, they would tackle them with good preparation and amazing speed.

They have showed us how music can conquer the showbiz, coupled with their advancement into the Japan market, we can anticipate more success for them. Although Electronica is not as popular in Korea as it was in the past, we can still trust that BIGBANG has the power to overcome it without a trace of fear.

[News] Fans Protest Over JYJ's Removal On Oricon Charts

MANILA, Philippines -  Fans of boy bandJYJ are outraged as the group has suffered yet another setback in their career in the past week.

In a notice on its website, Japan’s Oricon chart has announced that it would be excluding JYJ’s “Memories in 2010” DVD and “Thanksgiving Live in Dome” album from the charts due to AVEX agency’s decision last year to suspend the activities of JYJ in Japan.

AVEX suspended JYJ’s Japanese activities and instead gave its full support to the TVXQ duo Yunho and Changmin.The Oricon notice said that AVEX agreed to release the two albums on the condition that no promotion and advertisement by JYJ will be done in Japan.

Fans are accusing AVEX of profiting from JYJ’s music and yet preventing the trio from doing their activities in Japan.After the JYJ trio (Xiah Junsu, Micky Yoochun and Youngwoong Jaejoong) sued SM Entertainment in 2009, they signed up with AVEX as a new group to promote their music in Japan.

However, AVEX suspended JYJ’s activities last year and then expressed its alliance with SM Entertainment.The move by Oricon has been met with online protests by fans.“Can you see the AVEX’s true intentions, wanting profits using the three members’ name while avoiding the promotion of their status or popularity in Japan?” one fan with the username ZAI263 posted on the JYJ thread on Soompi.com.

JYJ is also suffering in South Korea. The trio cannot promote on TV shows in South Korea due to the ongoing lawsuit between JYJ and SM Entertainment.A cable channel recently cancelled the airing of JYJ’s reality show. The internet broadcast station set up by fans was also shut down due to internal problems.
