BIG BANG, who released their new single titled "Gara Gara GO!!" yesterday on the 8th held a special event to thank their fans at Yoyogi Park's Yagai Concert Hall.
All who bought their Japanese major debut single "MY HEAVEN" and their second single, "Gara Gara GO!!", which was released yesterday, could attend the event for free. At their previous Japanese major debut commemoration event, 2000 fans rushed in, and the event had to be canceled. However, this event was much bigger; 8000 fans gathered there.
On that day, it was raining off and on, unfortunate weather. However, when the five members appeared on the stage, the assembly hall was filled with big cheers. "In this rain, so many people came to see us. Thank you very much. Today, until the end, let's enjoy ourselves," greeted TOP with a smiling face. The other members also one by one expressed their thanks to the fans that came despite the bad weather.
BIG BANG gave a hot performance, starting with "Gara Gara GO!!" and "MY HEAVEN", singing a total of 4 songs in addition to announcements. In particular, despite the fact that "Gara Gara GO!!" had gone on sale earlier that day, fans sang along in unison and enjoyed the stage choreography.
Also, they announced a "big surprise" at the event: on August 19th they will release their first album entitled "BIGBANG". (TN note: I guess Number 1 doesn't count or something? haha) In addition, on the same day they will release a "Best Of" album called "ASIA BEST 2006-2009" that is comprised of their big Korean hits such as "Haru Haru" and "Make Love" and recap their early career in Korea. Also on that same day, they will release their "BIG SHOW" DVD, dedicated to their live performances from January and February of this year.
So is GD's album even in the works now that so many releases are on August 19th?

Date: 2009-07-09 06:15 pm (UTC)Anyway, eww. I was hoping Big Bang wouldn't fall into the "Best of" album craze that Japan loves (is a best album every two years really necessary?!)..but if it means more sales for them in Japan, so be it lol.

Date: 2009-07-09 06:18 pm (UTC)I actually dig how he's doing his thang (like everybody else in BB) despite the hate. He seems to go, "whatev guys, I can dance better, h8rs to da left"

Date: 2009-07-09 06:20 pm (UTC)lol that aside, I'm glad he's taking his time, it's really hard perfecting everything that goes into a song, I've seen it quite a number of times and trust me it's not as easy as going into a studio and just singing it.
It's just that's my cousin's birthday on Aug 18th, and that bb was so excited that GD was dropping his solo album on that day but now it looks like it won't. I'm not looking forward to tell her D:

Date: 2009-07-09 09:02 pm (UTC)Then I remember I had to wait 3 years for Gummy-unnie's 4th album.
Waiting for GD's is nothing compared to that.
