G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Jay Park Were Supposed To Debut As A Trio

An old interview Yang Hyun Suk resurfaced where he shared previous plans of putting BIGBANG’s G-Dragon, Taeyang and Jay Park into one group.

The interview was an excerpt from SBS Midnight TV Entertainment back in 2011.

The YG Entertainment head planned that all three to make their debut before it was eventually scrapped.

 

“This will be the first time I will reveal this. Prior to BIGBANG’s debut, I had planned for G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Jay Park to be in one group.

However, we were all not able to get together due to their busy schedules and we made up on our own teams instead.”

– Yang Hyun Suk 

Jay Park eventually went on to train with JYP Entertainment and debut as a member of 2PM in 2008.

He left the group and the agency in 2009 and continued working as a solo artist two years later.

Recently, he signed with American record label Roc Nation.

G-Dragon and Taeyang, on the other hand, made their debut with Seungri, Daesung, and T.O.P for BIGBANG in 2006.

Watch: Taeyang Is The Ultimate Professional During Concert Performance

Taeyang has recently made a successful comeback with his album “White Night” and is currently meeting fans at his second solo world tour. One of his stops was San Jose, California, where fans were able to see him perform for the first time in years. Taeyang did not disappoint, and was his usual charismatic self on stage, despite a slight hiccup on stage when he hit himself with the mic and got a nosebleed.

Taeyang was in the middle of performing “Only Look At Me” when he accidentally hits the mic stand, which flips the mic which hits him in the face.

He was able to quickly recover and continue the soulful performance as if nothing has happened. However, many fans noticed that his nose was bleeding from where the mic hit his face. Taeyang, however, is an utter professional and finishes the song.
