I love the "Welcome Back' game series so much. I was waiting for the latest fan meeting behind the stage to come out but instead we got a teaser. YG groups do solos on their albums pretty often but subunits happen alot too. Brings back memories of We Belong Together and Please Don't Go. Interestingly enough in the 4th and 5th Welcome Back games most of iKON is complaining about being in pain because of recording.

shouldn't they try to promote them as a group first? as if it wasnt already double b ft. others...

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

There have been solos on other YG groups' albums as well. I think using a well known subunit is good to promote the group too

Also...this is similar to when Big Bang debuted LOL

[lilykt7.livejournal.com]

Ugh this is so annoying. It's like BI and bobby show. Which sucks cause I'm not a big fan of either.

[lainmyownworld.livejournal.com]

:/

I hope it's a bop and a half and that everyone will be able to watch and enjoy the video, lol.

Makes me miss Minzy/CL.

[lettace.livejournal.com]

they going for a gd&top type release?
this doesn't help, since the public really only knows these two (IF THEY EVEN KNOW IKON INDIVIDUALLY)

cl&minzy were the superior subunit. get the least popular two or three to do a fun track tf

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

Well like I said above it's like how GD and Top did We Belong Together when Big Bang debuted. Similarly BB, 2NE1, and Winner did do solos and subunits on their albums and singles so I'm not surprised by this and expected it.

YG killed my iKON boner so bad with his half assed promotion :c

OP, your posts are literally the only thing that keeps me updated lol thank you for taking the time<3

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

It is half assed but also so weird mix of YG's old and recent debut styles...I'm still here for my kids though because I enjoyed the album even though I only saw the songs performed about 4 times including the concert. *sigh*

[unicornios.livejournal.com]

sigh i just hope it all works out

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

Wait, was this what the YG "Who's Next?" teaser was for?

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

That's for the 21st...CL liked it on IG so I'm still guessing it might be a single for 2NE1

For those who don't understand my post comment here is some Big Bang and 2NE1 history

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

For those unfamiliar with YG back in the day...

Big Bang's first single was We Belong Together which was GD and TOP featuring Bom. It was composed by the entire group and came with a DVD. If you remember GD's version of This Love that was included on it with extra scenes from the dread Big Bang Docu. The first GROUP single was released next: La La La



Please Don't Go was CL and Minzy's subunit song. It was the 4th 2NE1 digital single and was later on on 2NE1's first full album...Dara and Bom had solos prior to the song: Lollipop, Fire, I Don't Care, Kiss (Dara CF), You and I (Bom), and Please Don't Go (CL/Minzy), and then Follow Me. Then the actual album came out with the 3 title songs: Can't Nobody, Clap Your Hands and Go Away...YG used to promote digital singles like crazy







iKON's debut really is a weird hybrid of YG's old and recent styles of debuts

Thanks for these updates, the boys are dorks. I only get to know the vocal line through their little V App features.

The Welcome Back games were so much fun. Can't wait for the new songs!
