This is how BIGBANG’s Daesung lost 14 Million Won in a matter of seconds


 

While BIGBANG was in New York on their MADE World Tour three members decided they wanted to stay another day, but in order to do so, they would need to provide 14 million won to support the staff staying with them.

When the members were asked who was willing to stay an extra day, G-Dragon, Seungri, and Taeyang immediately agreed, while Daesung contemplated whether he wanted to stay, T.O.P expressed that he would stay if everyone else agreed on staying.

Since BIGBANG decided they wanted to stay, the staff would have to stay as well and they felt it only fair that the members pay for the expenses. To make things more interesting, the group decided that one member would pay for all the expenses and the paying member would be determined by playing a ladder game.

Their coordinator drew 5 vertical lines down on a mirror with a number above each line and drew random rungs between each of the lines. At the bottom of one of the lines, “14 million” was written. The members would then choose one ladder each, and a turn would be made at each rung as the pen climbs down. Whoever lands on “14 million” at the bottom of the ladder would have to pay for all of the staff’s expenses.

BIGBANG playing “Climb the Ladder”: G-Dragon chose 1, Daesung 2, Taeyang 3, T.O.P 4, Seungri 5

When the members were interviewed, G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Seungri all expressed that they wished T.O.P would end up paying, but to Daesung’s disappointment, his ladder was the one that ended up arriving at “14 million”.

Seungri and G-Dragon are obviously happy that they weren’t picked to pay 14 million Won!

The other members were ecstatic, and T.O.P rubbed salt in Daesung’s wound by saying, “The member who wanted to stay the least has to pay!

Daesung laughed in shock, but continuously repeated, “I may look like I’m smiling, but I’m actually not...”

In the end, Daesung tried to make the most of the extra day in New York by going shopping, watching musicals, and drinking wine.

Entertainment officials reveal details of T.O.P and Junsu’s enlistment


 

BIGBANG‘s T.O.P and JYJ‘s Junsu will both be reporting to the Chungnam Nonsan Army Training Center on February 9 for their 4 weeks of basic military training.

After much speculation, it was finally revealed that T.O.P and Junsu will both be enlisting for their compulsory military service next week. They will both fulfill their mandatory military service as conscripted policemen. With the two enlisting so soon, fans have expressed their curiosity as to whether or not the two would be greeting their fans before beginning their service.

On the topic, a YG Entertainment official said:

“T.O.P’s military enlistment is coming soon. It has not been decided whether he will greet the fans one last time on that day. We will need to discuss with him about that.”

On the other hand, an official from C-JeS Entertainment simply said:

“It will be a closed event.”

Both T.O.P and Junsu have been using their free time to rest ahead of their enlistment. Recently T.O.P finished BIGBANG’s 10 year anniversary tour and Junsu finished his musical Death Note. BIGBANG fans don’t need to worry as the members will still release solo albumsthroughout the course of the year. JYJ fans can look forward to what Jaejoong has in store as he was recently discharged from his own military service.

These Photos Show What It’s Like Inside T.O.P’s House


 

T.O.P‘s house has been a big talking point recently, as many fans have pointed out that his house reminds them of a museum.

T.O.P’s home is a luxurious villa located in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul. The average price for a home there is 3 billion won and the average size is 2900 square feet.

T.O.P bought two of these, remodeled the interior, and combined them into an even larger home. Currently, his house is around 5800 square feet, much larger than the national average home size of 1200 square feet.

With such a large house, T.O.P has filled it with furniture and artwork. In a past Radio Star broadcast, he revealed that he would spend up to 95% of his income on art. Even with the remaining 5%, T.O.P was still able to purchase an entire grape vineyard in Argentina!

Check out some pictures of the artwork in his home below.

 

The walls in his kitchen are covered in art, so he decided to hang a sculpture from the ceiling instead.

A unique art piece to go with T.O.P’s unique view.

Once you’re through admiring the art that’s hanging on the wall, you’ll notice that even his furniture is art.
