BIGBANG Recalls Best Moments During Their 10-Year Career

With the 10-year anniversary of BIGBANG, the members sat down to remember the good times.

At a press conference, BIGBANG picked out their top moments within their 10-year career. G-Dragon talked about their trainee days saying, “There were a lot of good things that happened after our debut. But the thing I remember the most and was the hardest of times was when we were trainees. If we didn’t work hard during those times of our uncertain futures, we wouldn’t have what we have now. Whenever we’re about to perform a huge concert, we always remember the times before our debut.”

“Lately all the members including Taeyang often say that they’re happy,” said Daesung.

“When I was a trainee, being a singer was my biggest dream. But the real dreams inside that dream are now starting to come true. Even beyond music and the stage, I’ve realized more that the members are precious to me. That’s why I’m happy,” Taeyang explained. “Winning the EMAs was a turning point for BIGBANG. It became our motivation. Since then the albums we’ve released have been loved by lots of people,” he continued.

Seungri spoke of their teamwork saying, “The best thing about these 10 years is that the five of us met. It’s almost to the point where we wonder how five people of different personalities could stay a tight-knit team for 10 years. But we do have worries and burdens about whether or not we’ll still have the love of our fans in the future. Those aspects are sad.”

“Back then we couldn’t experience whether people liked us that much. Now that time has passed I’ve grown thankful  for each and every day with a happy heart,” said T.O.P.

Known for their unique characters and musicality, BIGBANG is currently celebrating their 10-year anniversary through a movie, an exhibit, a concert as well as a variety of projects.

BIGBANG may not enlist until 2018?

Big-Bang

BIGBANG‘s newfound role as ‘Creative Icons’ for South Korea’s new slogan ‘Creative Nation’ may affect the group’s military enlistment plans.

 

As the nation’s ‘Creative Icons’, BIGBANG will be charged with representing Korea during the ‘PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics’. However, T.O.P, currently 28 years old in Korean age, must enlist before the age of 30 to abide by military regulations. G-Dragon and Taeyang will also need to enlist by the year 2018, for similar reasons. If these enlistment requirements hold, BIGBANG will not be able to promote during the ‘PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics’ as an entire group.

South Korea’s Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism addressed the issue by stating, “Even if some of the members will be absent carrying out their military service duties, we plan on continuing promotions centered around the remaining members.”

YG Entertainment likewise issued, “It is true BIGBANG’s enlistment is approaching. If they are unable to promote during that period, then they will most likely maintain their roles with photos, videos, and other media resources.”

The military has been known to make exemptions for special cases in which those already serving the nation in a different form may be allowed a delay of one year. However, this exemption has yet confirmed, and remains a speculation for BIGBANG.
