No Big Bang or Wonder Girls in 2009



We all know about JYP's mission to make the Wonder Girls American debut a blinding success and they are now the opening acts for all but 2 of Jonas Brothers concert tour stops until the end of 2009. That effectively means no Korean albums in 2009 for Korean Wonderfuls. The same goes for Big Bang's VIPs when it was announced recently that there were no plans for a 2009 Korean album as well.


YG Entertainment's CEO, Yang Hyun Suk revealed recently that Big Bang's leader and fashionista, G-Dragon will be releasing his 1st mini-album on 18th August, coincidentally his 21st birthday. This will be followed by Tae Yang whose 2nd mini-album will be out around September - October. Daesung will also be releasing his own mini-album at the end of the year, and it was stressed that it will not be another trot album. The other 2, T.O.P and Seung Ri will be busy with their respective filming commitments.

Big Bang are currently still united though but not in Korea, promoting in Japan which started in June and will end in July. Thereafter, the individual Big Bang members will disperse to pursue their own projects. Yang Hyun Suk said, "Many are hoping to see another Big Bang album this year. But because of their Japan promotions and subsequent solo projects thereafter, it's not possible for them to do so. We hope that the fans will understand and continue to show their support for their solo projects."



No Wonder Girls nor Big Bang in 2009. The same goes for MC Mong, Lee Hyori and others which I can't remember. The K-pop scene of 2009 looks so lonely without them. With less than 1/2 of 2009 to go, hopefully someone steps up to the plate.

Well this kinda blows. I'm so excited for BB's solo projects but nothing beats them all together tbh. Best of luck to WG too...hopefully they don't disappear like BoA.

I do really wish them luck even if they will be M.I.A. for a while. Maybe the Jonas Brothers will do us some good for once and get Asian music known!

I'd much rather have WoGi in Korea. Keeping the old fans seems more important than getting new ones =\

But JYP wants exposure I guess.

their fans will still support them, i think. they will have comeback in korea next year, too! i believe they will have balance like TVXQ.

as long as they do not ditch korean wonderfuls completely without looking back, like Boa has done.

I'm wish that GD or YB would do a collab with each other on one of their solo albums. It would help me recover from the pain of no Korean Big Bang group release this year.

at least i can look forward to G-dragon and Dae sung's solo albums. and an english album and a chinese album from WG.
Right now, no other new groups has been decent IMO! and suju ended third album promotions DDD:

I'm totally uninterested in American Wonder Girls and Japanese Big Bang. The songs just lack something that the originals had. But Korea still has Soshi this year, and I am looking forward from solo releases from BB.

I don't mind that Big Bang's concentrating on Japan right now, Gara Gara GO!! is my jam right now. At least Jiyong's putting on a solo album to keep my mind off of it. God, I can't wait.

And honestly, I'd prefer that Big Bang got a break after Japan before immediately return to making Korean music. Lord knows they need it.

so... maybe we can think of the later part of 09 for the newbies?
since the big names have business else where doing world tours /finishing promotional work/ doing solo mini-albums... this could be breathing room for new groups..

maybe.

I keep forgetting that GD is only a year older than me...xDDD And he's 2....or is it 3...years older than my little sister, whichever it is, her birthday's on August 17th, the day before his. xD

"no Korean albums in 2009 for Korean Wonderfuls."
Spoiled.
Geez, that sentence sounds so selfish.

Maybe other groups will shine in replacement for them for this year?
Plus, they can always buy Big Bang from Japan. As can I. I could see if they were like going on HIATUS, but geez.

I don't think Big Bang will actually be releasing anything for awhile. Their Japanese promotions end this month and then it's solo activities.
