lol at the picture.

I'm gonna have to admit I don't like the album or the concept at all. Most of the tracks sound the same to me and a lot of his image for this seems forced.

The only one whose solo music career is more enjoyable than Big Bang as a group is TaeYang, IMO.

When I was scanning my Friend Page, my bff saw that picture and said, "Who's that?" I told her it was GD and she replied with, "Oh, that makes sense."

I love this man.

YG Entertainment will reveal the date of his solo debut stage soon.

I thought that since SBS Inkigayo was cancelled, automatically it means he'll have his solo debut stage the following week ... So it's not the case?

i'm so proud of him. I've been reading a lot of hate, but i love the album and think he's going to have an amazing debut.

8D Yay, GD!

I really love that album, too. I wish i could buy the physical one.

30k for you GD Coco. You go, GD Coco.

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

Yay! I'm kinda starting to think that whole plagiarism controversy has only benefit him marketing wise as there are probably nobody in Korea now who wouldn't have read/heard about his album.

[hiddlestan.livejournal.com]

yes! i actually think that he has planned the whole controversial matter. LOL

[hiddlestan.livejournal.com]

impatientttttt.

[centric-xx.livejournal.com]

we need a performance asap!

[erbalurbal.livejournal.com]

Not really shocking since big bang has so many fans and they have all been waiting for this.

I think gdragon should have brought his album out last. The other boys are going to be disappointed with their sales numbers after his was so huge lol

[theheartless69.livejournal.com]

Aw, I just thought about that :/

[blooberrie.livejournal.com]

totally excited for his solo stage.

[purkin.livejournal.com]

Lmao I'm so used to Oricon top ten sales always breaking 100k like immediately. I always forget Korea's music industry isn't that big, even thought it seems much more...idk...active? Alive? Here's to hoping it'll break 50k by the end of the week :D
