  2. i do want to see more from GTOP and SR but another month?????? ToT no it’s too long!!!!!!!!!!!
    though glad that they will have another album next fall!!!!!!!!!
    aigooo just can’t wait!!!!!!!!!!

    • lol seriously doubt thats going to happen. How in the world will they find time in that hectic schedule to record a 2nd album? I love ygpapa and all (esp since he’s promoting don’t go home :D ) bbuutt we all know his dates are a little -cough- off.

  3. Big Bang’s album was postponed for one month to March(?), and they are going to Japan in April…. that means thy only have one month to promote long-await album…. YG????

  4. jesus, pushed back AGAIN?

    I’m cool with the fact that the big bang members want the album to be perfect and all but.. GEEZ C’MON MAN haha

  5. plus, is it a trend to promote in Japan these days?
    KARA, DBSK (JYJ), and now Big Bang again?
    i know there big in Japan, but dude care about your Korean fans a little more

  6. i’m guessing the album in march won’t be full length. i’m betting the summer album will be though.
    this is somewhat disappointing (postponing them again, and promoting the intro? really?) but i’m kinda happy to just see that there WILL be activity throughout the whole year.

    and CONCERTS! that’s what they should always have, just concerts xD they’re the best in their own show.

  7. At first yg said summer, then october, november, february and now late next year. I’m pissed. I knew bigbang very late, but I want to support n be a fan of them. But keep pushing back the date is just too much. I don’t wanna wait again. Omfg. Come on so unfair. I though bb is gonna focus only korea n not japan. If this keep up, I might have to switch to another boy groups. Please yg let them be on february. I want to see their korean promotions. Goodness. >:(

  8. yay seungri oppa has a mini album coming out i cant wait to see his hotness againn xDD <3
    but srsly dear YG… are you trying to dry out us VIPs?
    thats a bit abusing. i mean… abusing us from not letting us see our boys ):

  9. is big bang’s album postponed.. again? oO oh, gosh, yg T_T i can’t wait any longer!! hahahaha. i hope they focus more on their activites/promotions in korea, despite them being popular in japan..

  10. wow, so does this mean GD&TOP will go against SR? Hmm, not liking the idea but yay for SR’s mini album!

    As for BB… well I think the album will still come out in Feb but not early Feb (maybe that’s just me hoping?)

  11. hey guys chill … i mean we’ve waited all these years, one two month more wont hurt that much. i mean, look at GTOP album, they’re late, but damn i love all songs there !
    though im sad, but come on lets support them since theyre doing this to give us their best. though im also sad about the fact that yg is always fashionably late, but hey do they ever disappoint us with bad quality records ? no .
    lets hope that this 2011 will be the year of bigbang :D

  12. oohhh i think there is a reason y yg push the BB album… 1. on jan-feb its a comeback of TVXQ,JYJ and of course focus on Seungri Mini album .They dont want to be against the album then? because TVXQ and BB are gud friends,they might want them to have a spotlight first because they’ve been gone for a long time also in korea ..2. it will be very tiring for GD TOP SEUNGRI to continue nonstop heavy schedules so i think give them a lil rest?? 3. I Think Jap Entertainment kip on calling BB to go back and perform again in japan because of their performance and music skills that makes them go OH yeah!and JVIP misss them??but then KVIP and we INternationalVIP miss them MUCH MORE!!:)(pls give us time to japan? 2 yrs in japan then 3 or much more in korea must have!)
    4.I just hope that what they to is an World Tour rather than stick to Japan..IVIPS need them to see too… :) 5. YG should not make a Schedule…really…y dont he make it personal …:)

    This are just my opinion..iam a loyal IVIP..i may sometimes understand his decisions and its a business thing..but then…ohh gudness im sad ,,IMISS THEM SOOO MUCH!! im sorry i cant take it anymore :I

      • HI!:) i doubt about that too..dont worry …im not saying they are scared of them…:) I love BB since 2006 and i know they are preparing thereselves for an album * and i might be shocked if all the title of the songs are written by them only..not GD and Top only but Taeyang, Seungri and Daesung write also for the BB album too!and that would be daebak!:)..maybe Yg also wants to give GD TOP SEUNGRI and DAESUNG a lil bit rest because they’ve been busy also and for the prepartion of their album too..

        *Im sorry im having a hard time to explain and really express in this site?esp. in english! :) and its my first time to post here in this site .Iam a silent reader of Ibigbang ..:)

    • thats right !at least they will release an album..what more if they will not release an album anymore?that will be too sad…so lets be happy!:)…and as we all know Yg likes to change plans, as for me , i dont follow his schedule, what i think of is ,that yr will be YGE and anticipating every yr!:)

  13. Seriously, I love this plan. I mean, with GDTOP’s album and Seungri’s mini album it would definitely be impossible to have BigBang’s comeback be on Feb. If they push through with the plan (Feb comeback) that means Baby Ri will only have less than a month to promote his album with full force, that’s just wasting 5, 6, 7 songs all to waste. All the hard work of writing his songs. So definitely I agree to this.

    Secondly, promoting Don’t go home and Baby good night is a total YAY! I LOVE THOSE SONGS and it would be a waste if it will just be a ANOTHER song on their album, so YAY!

    Third, concert on Feb? Does that mean they will be having concert with their old songs in it?? Hmmm.. not liking that though… They should have concert after their comeback.

    Fourth, I hope they don’t go back to Japan this early. Please let 2011 be Big Bang year in Korea.

    • I hope TOP will sing OH MOM too! :)..Yeah it will be very tiring…Yg doesnt want his artist to be tooo exhausted or to be too muchh loaded in their schedule,I Just dont loose hope for them…:)

  14. I would say it’s TVXQ’s fault but that would be stupid.

    YG just wants to make sure that SeungRi and GD&TOP has the chance to promote well. Personally I thought the original plan was too much for them to handle (cause they won’t get that much rest compared to Bae and Dae and do we really want to see them tired and exhausted?). One month isn’t that bad, compared to what Cassies had to go through for the last couple of years (JYJ and the other two moving on as a duo). Just be patient. It’ll be good. :)

  15. :( daww it’s pretty dissapointing and I too am kind of tired of waiting but I believe that for whatever reason YG and BB won’t let us down
    I think the album’s gonna drop on late february (at least it’s still on february) because Big Shows are on 25 26 27 and I think the fans would have a new set list of songs from the boys so I thought they would have the album dropped atleast mid feb.
    I still have every faith and belief that YG’s doing this for the best sake of our boys and I still believe the future albums will rock :)
    Hold on a little kvips and ivips :)

  17. YES! I can’t wait for Knockout!!!! I’m LOVING all the plans for songs/albums. Keep them coming! I wish they would release GD&TOP’s here in the States.

  18. well you should never trust YG long term plans, which is anything more than one month ahead. And base on this thinking, the only thing confirmed now would be GTOP and Seungri’s plan.

  19. That’s ‘very YG’ to change his mind again regarding Bigbang’s comeback. I’m not gonna buy all of these. They’re all plans anyway so they’re most likely to be changed. I don’t want to sound possessive though but I think their Japanese promotions delay their comeback. If they’ll just set aside their Japanese promotions for a while, say for a year and concentrate on their comeback, I think we won’t have to wait this long. They’ve already promoted in Japan for 2 years, I think it’s time to prioritize their korean fans. They’ve been patiently waiting for this. However, I doubt that will happen since business is involved and if they’ll be absent in Japan for a year then they might lose their popularity there especially since on 2011, several korean idol groups will Japan. I’m not even Korean but I want them to have their comeback already. Aisht why do I have a feeling that their comeback would be on 2012? I really hope not!

  20. I agree with YGE, give ample time for GD and TOP promotions. They have the best songs in the album and it is just a waste if those wont be promoted. And yes, Seungri will be having his mini album, i am happy for him. About the Bigbang’s comeback, i should say, though it is postponed but i am hoping before the Bigbang Big Show Concert 2011 the album will be released. We have to think also in every delay, there is a reason…the boys and the company are the doing their best to please the fans, so i dont have any enough reason to be mad since it will me time to save a little more..im pretty sure these albums would cause empty wallets.

  21. i’ve been waiting like forever to see them all 5 on stage with a new album.
    disappointed,yes..but i’ll still wait for my BIG BANG!
    that’s how much i luv them..
    while waiting for them i’ll just get my overdosed biases of GDTOP and SEUNGRI.
    iVIP’s and VIP’s fighrting!

  22. I decided I was going to enjoy whatever YG through at as!! We certainly know that his plans will probably change, but we still are going to get awesome songs!!!
    And don’t forget everyone saud that GD&TOP had to promote Baby good night and don’t go home, and that’s exactly what he’s giving us!!

    I Say enjoy the ride :D cause you never know when YG is going to give us and amazing Loop…

    The only thing I’m really wondering why he hasn’t released GD&TOP album on Itunes yet!!!!
    How I wish we could ask YG about this -_-, maybe we could spam the boys Twitter/me2day asking for this XD

  23. am i the only who is pretty pissed off with this arrangements?? 5 songs from GDTOP?? WTH!!! YB only got to promote 2 songs (INAG & IBT; that doesn’t include You’re My, Solar & JAF cuz it’s only meant for his comeback stages) for his FIRST FULL ALBUM, SOLAR.. what is this?? showing favoritism to ur artistes even though they’re from the same company & group?? stop all those nonsense saying that ‘ah; maybe YB doesn’t wanna promote more than 2 songs, blah blah blah, etc..’ i mean; YG shorten YB’s promotional activities for 3 months or less than that whereas for GDTOP; it’s gonne be like till Feb or March since they’re gonna be promoting 5 songs.. 2NE1 got to promote 4 songs!! why do YB only got to promote 2 songs!! call me a hater but i don’t like the way YG promote his artistes!! they should be given equal amount of time to do their promotions!! period!! AARRGGHH!!

    • I always felt like TY didn’t promote as I would have liked.. but think about this.. he still performed 4 songs in music shows, had a reality show just for him, had his 2nd solo concert, had an international album!!! and even has his own youtube channel!! I think he still enjoyed his promotional moment…

      And I think YG is giving more emphasis on GD&TOP because he considers his album an extension of BB promotions, he’s just trying to please fans (in his own weird way)

      • @Nikoru: his own youtube channel?? it’s almost dead with minimal updates from YG!! if u were to compare 2NE1′s channel to YB’s; YG is clearly promoting heavily on 2NE1!! YB got to perform 4 songs in music shows?? correction; it’s only for his comeback stages where he can performed 4 songs.. other than that; he only performed 1 song!! if GDTOP is an extension to BB’s promotions; what abt YB’s?? his wasn’t an extension as well?? come on!! less than 3 months of promotion isn’t suffice for YB’s fans who had waited for 2 years for his comeback..

    • actually its fair for me..look..he got 1st solo mini album out of 5 ..next first concert, 2nd 1st full album and Wedding dress, Where you at are included in the solar album and International album!…next he promote i need a girl, he also sing I got a feeling..and next your my…after that I’ll be there last 2nd concert! (he got a 2 album, 2 concerts if total them all) its soo fair..dont be mad about it…:)pls dont be pissed off ….:)

      • hey calm down
        as long as any one of the bigbang members are active in the mudic industry.. i am happy about it (although i am also a YB-biased)

  24. Wait…
    does that mean
    Big Bang has TWO albums coming out?
    Even though the one from Feb is pushed back, another one will drop between July & September?!!? :D :D :D :D :D
    that’d be hella BOMB

  25. @iamanangryfan
    When it was YB’s time to promote YG haven’t came out with the thinking of triple title track, don’t blame him !
    YB got to release 2 full album, an international one!
    We should thanked him for it IMO

    • @jez: please don’t say that YG didn’t think of the triple titles before YB’s comeback.. if he can think of that for 2NE1; why can’t he do that for YB?? don’t tell me that the idea pops up in his head randomly & so coincidently; it’s after YB’s promotional period?? PLEASE!! i mean; YB fans has waited for him for 2 years & all they got was 3months or less of promotional activities.. so what if YB has his 2nd solo concert, his own reality shows, international album & his own youtube channel when there’s minimal updates from YG as compared to 2NE1!! 2 albums?? his international album was similar to SOLAR except that they throw in a couple of English songs & his old hits.. prior to this; YB’s Wedding Dress promotional activities were also choppy!! why do this always have to happen to YB??

      • because 2ne1 are new in the company (and the only one female )so thats why this year they are giving their time to produce songs…bb had done so many songs and albums …Iam a taeyang fan also but im not pissed off…at least he make an album and became known to other countries as well..and im happy for it…its hard also to produce and release an album w/ all artists in one month.. they themselves are the ones who compose and produce,and how many are them in the studio?..

        sory dont be mad at me i just wanted to lighten u up:)

    • 1. GD & TOP = 2 people (It’s a unit group, but it’s two people. and they are promoting as a group)
      2NE1 = 1 group
      while
      TY= 1 solo singer.

      2. What do you expect YG to update on TY’s youtube when Taeyang has no activities going on?
      3. Regarding the Wedding dress promotion. The song was not widely appreciated in Korea, which, i assume, put TY in a really terrible mood. I think we can see this in almost every Wedding dress performance at that time. (And Taeyang also confirmed this in 2 interviews before and after SOLAR). Would you, if you were YG, try to continue the promotions when your singer was depressed like that?
      4. So it’s not possible that YG thought of the triple-song promotion method AFTER Taeyang’s promotion?
      IMO, the fact that Taeyang were quickly able to release an international version of SOLAR pretty much showed how much support YG gave him.
      LMAO.

      • @vnm- and TAeyang wedding dress became international..!in korea(some) they did not appreciate Wedding Dress song (which makes TY became sad.)but then it became widely known in other countries and also climbing on charts !that means there are people in other countries appreciate Wedding Dress song even if they dont understand the words but they appreciate it by way of expressing of the song…and Im so happy for TY for that..!

      • @myst10: Yes, the fact that koreans did not appreciate the song really pissed me off. I was like wtf when i heard that they didn’t like it. And to think they love other stupid meaningless songs…
        Well, the promotions are for Koreans only anw so if they didn’t like it, there would be no other way than stopping the activities.

  26. sucky plan is what I think -.-…they need to stop pushing the comeback album date ><" (XD) and a new album?? two albums?? one year?? whyyyy?? o.O???

    all that being said, i of course am very very excited that Big Bang will be back together again ^^! I was expecting their activities to have more focus in korea…esp variety shows =/…but big bang is big bang =D cant wait for new album!! GTOP album is keeping me busy at the moment xD

  27. as much as i’m disappointed with this pushback of dates AGAIN, it’s obvious that we can’t do a thing but to wait for them and support them with all our hearts when they do make their comeback, right?

    no hating on YG, i believe he’s just trying to balance things out real hard. it’s tough managing a whole entertainment company with so many artists in his hands.

    just hoping that Big Bang won’t tire out for the entire year next year–it sounds like a super-crammed schedule for them ):

  28. well, even tough we need to wait more for bb’s album, but somehow i relieved. i remember their 5-year contracts starting from 2006 and i thought their contracts ends by august2011? but seeing their schedule is packed until the end of 2011 make me relieved ((:

    being a true vip means to be super duper patience, so yeah, i will ^^

  29. I’m so happy that GD & TOP are gonna do a video & promotions for “Don’t Go Home” (Yessssss!)
    And that Seungri is gonna do a MINI ALBUM instead of a Digital Single.! (YESSSSSS!)
    “Big Bang’s exact album release date will be announced later on through the blog because plans on the date have changed.” <– does that mean that Papa YG is gonna push it back again! I mean C'MON we've been waiting TWO YEARS. and I wanna see the day where Papa YG says that BIGBANG is gonna do promotions in the US.
    I'm sorry if I sound like I'm complaining I just want this album already! I'm not a patient person… /:

  30. January-February, GTOP & Seungri to promote their own albums/mini-albums.

    March-April, BIGBANG will promote their album in South Korea.

    May-June, BIGBANG to have concerts in Japan.

    July-September, BIGBANG to promote another album in South Korea. (August?)

    October-November, BIGBANG will continue with activities in Japan.

    December-?, members will be dead tired. No more activities for another 2 years to recover from this hectic schedule.

  31. This is amazing news!!! Knowing YG he will adjust the schedule again according to the results of Baby V and GTOP’s promotion results. Baby V is getting a mini album! I thought it was a bit unfair for him to release a single while GTOP released an album. But YG was planning to surprise all along with a whole mini album! There’s no reason to hide it now that his single and album are going to be revealed at the same time.

    GTOP extended promotions! amazing! Don’t Go Hom is a perfect follow-up song! but I’d like to see the other songs performed as well. I guess that’s what the Big Show is for.

    PS
    But 2NE1, in my opinion, ready for Japan, now that they have released and promoted a full length album and a mini album. I’m hoping that unlike BB, 2ne1 creates a brand new album for their Japan debut and not just English and Japanese versions of their Korean songs. YGE has improved when he decided to separate Korean and Japanese promotions for BB and I hope this applies to 2ne1 as well.

    YG IS THE BEST!!! These are good management decisions for YGE.

  32. YG should have kept this plans to himself…i would prefer not knowing what are his plans since he always push back dates and not following the schedules…if YG don’t keep this in track then a lot of fans will be disappointed again..

  33. I thought they are going to postpone the big show concert as well.. cos it would be weird if BB perform unreleased new songs during their concerts cos VIP dunno how to sing along..

    i am also a bit worry for daesung.. cos gtop seungri and yb have solo songs to perform but daesung doesn’t have any new solo

  34. YG…if not the album this february..can just drop 1.. JUST oneee new SONG of BIG BANG at least pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee…..VIP keep switch ON yr PASSION MOTE…

  35. I was expecting this so not really disappointed. And this time round, I get why YG is pushing back things a little late. The way I see it, delaying the BB album allows GDTOP and SEUNGRI to promote their albums a little longer. Also, I don’t think SEUNGRI was actually prepared for 3rd Jan bcos he had only finished recording like just last week, which was shocking when I first read it. So I’m glad he gets a little bit more time to prepare. Not to mention all songs from GDTOP and SEUNGRI are and will be awesome respectively, it is def. a waste not to promote them…so I understand where YG is coming from. The only regretful thing is that YG hadn’t thought about this when he revealed the comeback dates back in Nov 28th. He should have thought carefully although fans urging and pestering him can be quite pressurizing. Unfortunately, failing to think through realistically had caused even more disappointments in fans. I hope he’s on time this time round.

  36. And I’m actualy disappointed in some of the reactions of VIPs. Some of you being really greedy for the appearance of your biases have turned insensitive and individual. I think it’s not fair that you guys are comparing how YG prepares differently for different member promotional activities without even sparing a thought for the indefinite possibilities and reasons. Don’t you ever consider that Taeyang had only a song promoted prolly because he wanted to, being his simple and unassuming nature?? I’m pretty sure YG had consulted the artists first before making decisions. Taeyang had hid fair share of promotions and he was happy with it judging from Real Sound by Taeyang so I dont get why you biases are filled with dissatisfaction. It’s saddening to see that you guys are jealous over other members and I truly feel that GDTOP and SEUNGRI deserve the promotions they have right now..as for DAESUNG, he is busy with his non-singing activities so why rush a solo album when he is doing fine in other fields? Each member will have their own time to shine. I’m sure many of us didn’t expect a minialbum by SEUNGRI but it happened!! So DAESUNG bias, fear not, the album might just drop when you least expect it :)

    • like gd he have time to rest after his solo,taeyang also, seungri and Top too now let daesung rest before the comback….he’s been busy and i hope other fans should not be mad and dissapointed, i hope they understand! look at them, they have feelings also, and maybe pressured too ,(having a hard time to wake up too early in the morning till next day with less sleep and work esp. top and Gd for worrying and producing , composing songs for the album)…. and more than that they worry more because of their fans waiting and some even complaining.they are doing their best ,i dont want to see gd,daesung,top,yb,seungri got thinner again because of jampacked schedules….as what yg said, he needs his artists to have time to rest too…what i mean is health is one of their main priority..

  37. why did yg tell us all these different dates(october, november, december, february…) only to postpone them and disappoint us again and again. Just don’t give a date until you’re certain! And I really really hate how they’re always in japan. Honestly their japanese music is not nearly as good as their korean songs.
