YG releases iKon debut date - September 15th 2015

[donutism.livejournal.com]

In a recent interview, Yang Hyun Suk confirmed iKON’s debut date while discussing YG Entertainment and its artists. He confirmed that iKON would be debuting after BIGBANG’s promotions end.

It appears as though the head of YG Entertainment was not planning on revealing this news, but ended up answering after receiving questions about iKON during his interview. The reporter asked whether the next YG artist to promote would be iKON or WINNER. He replied, “We haven’t been able to rest since BIGBANG is releasing new songs every month until September 1. It’s not easy to film two music videos every time. So we had no choice but to avoid promoting iKON and BIGBANG at the same time. [iKON] will debut on September 15.”

He continued, “There is great significance for YG to have [iKON] debuting after BIGBANG since they are a hip-hop boy group. We will do our best to launch them. Both iKON and WINNER have produced around 50 songs each. Since BIGBANG is in their ninth year, they are at a stage when they can release a song whenever. But a couple of years ago, their songs were often rejected. WINNER and iKON are not ripe yet. Altogether their 100 songs were rejected, but a few of them are being fixed. We want to make both groups long-lasting like BIGBANG. YG has always placed great importance on musicians making their own music and teaching them to develop those talents. iKON and WINNER will not be an exception. It’s great that they can make their own clothes [music].”

I hate how much pride he gets on saying he rejects everything his artists create.
He is such an asshole.

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

OH MY FUCKING GOD HOW COULD THIS NEWS COME OUT WHILE I WAS IN CHINESE CLASS? YG YOU EVIL BASTARD HOW COULD YOU REJECT 100 DAMN SONGS???

AND THEN TAKE A DAMN SONG FOR THAT NONAGON CF? (Which I will not make a post for)

I can imagine how frustrated Hanbin, Seungyoon, and Taehyun were...poor babies

All of their previously released songs better be on their album

MY HANBINNE AND DONGHYUKIE ARE GOING TO DEBUT!!!!

*EDIT* I just realized my iKON comm is finally going to get used...I need to finish the Pimp Post LOL: http://sinosijak.livejournal.com/

Believe it when we get teasers with dates on them.

[szhuns.livejournal.com]

ok.................

[nebulous-minds.livejournal.com]

this is such bs

[miuratenshi.livejournal.com]

I don't wanna get my hopes up since YG lies about everything, so I'll wait for a teaser to get excited.

[kaninasan.livejournal.com]

i'll believe it when i see some teasers

[shineeinfinite.livejournal.com]

yea....I'll believe it when I see a teaser video...and even then I still probably won't believe it

TT.TT Bobby come back TT.TT

[jeliza]

Why does he not have multiple teams by now that can work on two groups MVs at the same time? His roster is too big for this BS now, and there are groups that don't really compete directly with each other. AkMu in particular, but Lee Hi could go at the same time as any of the boy groups as well. Can we take SM's too-close-together comebacks and YG's almost total lack of comebacks and average them?

Bluffffff!!!

[littlefox12.livejournal.com]

Lol 100 songs? Exo could release poop sounds and fangirls would buy it. I'm sure the same would apply to winner and ikon. Just release something for fans to buy.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

There's a difference between SM and YG tho. SM is okay with their groups having a huge fanbase that buy everything they release while YG push the ~true artists~ image so they focus on be appealing to the general public more.

[kaykaydelight.livejournal.com]

Yea ok. They'll debut in October or November the earliest but expect them to truly debut next year around spring. I'm going to need Lee Hi and Akmu to switch companies because they're just rotting away.

[nekokonneko.livejournal.com]

yeah, sure

[canxi.livejournal.com]

Lmaoo, I like how everyone is just like "LYINGGGGGG!"

I think it'll happen on time. Everything else has come out when stated from YG this year.

[welljustguess.livejournal.com]

the way he talk about that wasted produced song irritated me, like he wants to show off and exxagerating

[kaypukis.livejournal.com]

YG will always sell the "can make their own music" things doesn't he?
it's getting old..

[carra-mia.livejournal.com]

So the BB fest changing to dick parade in YG? I don'y have it in my to be exicted, maybe when the teasers will be out

[mc1a.livejournal.com]

I'm excited and don't believe anything at the same time.

[chenetic.livejournal.com]

I knew this would come near the end of the year, goodbye any chance of a Winner comeback this year

[bunica1990.livejournal.com]

I'll believe that when the album's listening post is approved on omona

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

I'm curious/excited at iKON debut but I feel bad for Winner. They're gonna lose their momentum if they keep MIA :/. I don't think ALL the songs they've written are so bad to be rejected.

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

Idgaf about Winrar or Icon, but I miss my bb's Lee Hi & AkMu. They deserve better.

[lily-of-west.livejournal.com]

I'll believe it when I hear it and see it tbh, this is YG trust nothing he says. Hopefully Hayi will be next in line and then the gg. I don't need Winner or AkMu until late next year or 2017 tbh.
