2NE1 Delays Their Next Song Release Due To Dae Sung's Traffic Accident

[k0dama.livejournal.com]

    Due to Dae Sung of the group Big Bang's traffic accident, 2NE1 has decided to delay their new song release and other planned programming.

    2NE1 has been releasing a new song every three weeks with Bom's solo song "Don't Cry" as the first song.
    Recently with the release of "Lonely," interest in the group has been booming. The new song was planned to be revealed on the 2nd (today!), however the song's release has been decided to be delayed due to Dae Sung's accident. YG's Internet broadcast YG On Air has also been decided to be delayed by one week.

    YG Entertainment stated "We have decided to delay the release of 2NE1's new song and the content of YG On Air by one week. It was a decision made in a tight and stressful situation, and we hope that we will be forgiven and understood for not giving proper forewarning about our decision"

    While driving his Audi passenger car from Hap-Jung Road to Yang-Pyung road, for reasons yet unclear, Dae Sung collided his car with a motorcyclist who was collapsed on the ground and then crashed into a taxi with his front bumper. The motorcycle driver has died, however it is not clear if his death was due to his crash with Dae Sung's car or not. The police are investigating the incident by analyzing closed circuit TVs in the area of the accident, and on the 1st an autopsy was performed on the deceased motorcycle driver to further verify the cause of death. The results of the autopsy are to be revealed in about a month. Depending on the cause of death of the motorcyclist, Dae Sung's sentence will also vary.

saddd

[aleexnews.livejournal.com]

I'm glad tbh. Idk if I'd be able to properly enjoy their comeback with Daesung in my mind & i think they want to take more care of dae atm which is completely understandable. hopefully by next week things will be cleared up a bit more.

[crazyxcami.livejournal.com]

As expected. I just hope if not all, "most" blackjacks will understand...

Flawless icon is flawless.

[smashboardcrunk.livejournal.com]

dont get it

[neonstix.livejournal.com]

lol

[albondiga.livejournal.com]

thank god. finally some justice in the middle of this coverup.

[stormsandsins.livejournal.com]

They're not even involved. Unless you're spiting all of YG Family for the mistake of ONE of them.

Wow.

[gumdrop-showers.livejournal.com]

Ngl, I expected this and I think it'd be a bad move for YG had he decided to go ahead with the album release anyway.

The motorcyclist was already injured and lying in the road. It's possible that he was already dead when Daesung hit him. The autopsy will uncover whether or not Daesung hitting him had anything to do with the man's death. If Daesung running over him was even the final blow that caused the man to die, it's possible he'll be charged with a crime beyond traffic infringements.

So did Dae actually hit the motorcyclist cause all the other reports I've seen say that the taxi hit him because Dae rear-ended him. So what's the story?

[a-perfect-shade.livejournal.com]

an expected decision. this is not really the time for the company to be releasing more music.

[stormsandsins.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, I think that was the wisest decision. They're all going to need to step out strong (and I hope they won't just sweep the accident under the rug; they'll need to talk about it) when this dies down, though. I sincerely hope Daesung isn't forced (either by the company or the "fans") to leave BB after this, but that is a possible outcome, isn't it. God, that mood "icon" up there is so very à propos right now.

:'(

I realise this comment sounds like I was just talking about BIGBANG. I wasn't. Both 2NE1 and BIGBANG will need to step out strong with full armour.

And BIGBANG will need to talk about it. Maybe write a song about it. Show the world* Korea that they're not to be cowed, etc.

* Let's face it: the "west" gossips about celebrity car accidents but doesn't quarter and grill the artists involved. In fact this might be as good a time as any to let things die down in Korea and maybe advance onto greener pastures in the meantime. If anything, their entry onto the Billboard proved that they could make it out here... Just sayin'

whoa what just happened?

[muffincrash.livejournal.com]

I expected this and I'm really glad they did this

I hope Daesung is fine :(

[valieleen.livejournal.com]

Where is your icon from?

[fate-otaku.livejournal.com]

understandable, but still very sad about 2NE1's new song and it's heartbreaking just thinking about Daesung.

[the-erotomanic.livejournal.com]

i really don't mind if yge release their 2ne1's song on time. bigbang and 2ne1 are separate groups. but it's understandable why yge had to do it.

[geonitacka.livejournal.com]

Shit, YG can NEVER do two things at once anyway. This ain't NO surprise.

[amandaplan.livejournal.com]

I don't like this just because when I thought of 2NE1 I didn't even think about the accident, but now I'm going to associate them all together. I understand BB taking a break, but 2NE1 should have continued with activities to show that they're not closely associated with it.

[aleexnews.livejournal.com]

um they're part of YG, why shouldn't the be associated? they probably dont wanna promote with all of the news about daesung right now anyway.

[hajar-a.livejournal.com]

They are a family after all ^_^ ,
I hope they are cheering up daesung right now ,
I can only imagine their album release and see the antis saying (how can they do that , while deasung in critical situation , blah blah blah )
and the media would defiantly ask 2NE1 about deasung , so . it's okay ..
cheer up deasung,every thing will be fine ^_^
