Wonder Girls say, “We’re happy to go head-to-head with Big Bang”

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Wonder Girls gave their thoughts on competing against Big Bang on the charts.
The Wonder Girls released a new mini-album, Wonder Party, on June 3 with “Like This” as its lead track. On the same day, Big Bang also released a special album, Still Alive. The rivalry between two groups are receiving favorable reviews.

At an interview with news reporters on June 19, the Wonder Girls said, “It must be a lie if we say we didn’t care about Big Bang’s new album, which was released on the same day and time with ours. But we’re happy because we’re friendly rivals. It’s our first time to go head-to-head with Big Bang. There were a few times we promoted our albums on the same period of time, but this time, we released our new albums on the same day and time. We, of course, cared a lot about it.”

Ye Eun said, “We made this album for many people to enjoy rather than to win. We’re happy that our ranking is getting higher week by week. But we don’t think we can always top the charts.”

It’s quite unusual that such popular idol groups as Big Bang and Wonder Girls release albums on the same day and time. It’s commented that the rivalry between two groups helped both groups receive wide attention and also promote their albums.

The Wonder Girls will soon hold a flashmob festival under the title of “Let’s dance and enjoy together.” Having attracted many people’s attention with easy choreography, the Wonder Girls will also hold a live concert on July 7.

considering what a sales giant Big Bang are and how WG don't usually move a lot of physical albums, they've been doing pretty well & I'm proud of them. I always love their attitude about their music & it shows in the quality of their work regardless of how well it charts.

I think everyone should hope for another Wonderbang collab, if only for the magic that is Sunye and Taeyang together and definitely for Daesung and Ye Eun (whose voices are like long lost soul mates)!

Daesung and Yeeun's voices are so great together ;_____;

Wonderbang was cool and all but the fact that their broadcast score was inflated so WG could win just makes me >_> KBS

[akaich0u.livejournal.com]

Until someone has the receipts, that claim remains really effing petty to me. I love BB just as much as WG but come on, KBS is not that pressed, people. YG is not the center of any and all things and they/my fellow fans need to stop thinking they are.
