Dae Sung dropped out of high school

dae-sung.jpg

Big Bang member Dae Sung dropped out of high school to dedicate all his time to music and he’s planning to take “Gum Jung Go Si” (Korean GEDs) to apply to colleges in the future. He’s also burning the midnight oil these days cramming Japanese with other Big Bang members, excluding Tae Yang to prepare for their crossover to Japan.

YG is aggressively shipping his artists overseas – Se7en to the states and Big Bang to Japan, but I feel that their debuts are a bit rushed and unprepared. Debuting in a different country is more than hooking up with famous producers, building buzz among the fans and learning the language. It’s about learning about the country’s culture and finding your own voice that will appeal to local fans, which is why only a few stars have been successful with their crossover careers. But it seems like all YG is doing these days is building sky high expectations for Se7en’s US debut. I really wonder what would happen if Se7en were to fail in US.

*Big Bang is currently preparing for their fourth single

    Aww I love Daesung ~ I think is still a great opportunity for him anyways…you can always go to school…you can’t always make an album. I’m not too sure about Se7en in the US…his leaked single wasn’t too impressive…

    kinda disappointed that he decided to drop out..i think he’ll regret it but yeah…debuting in another country is more than learning the language…i hope they’ve taken that into thought.

    Is it just me or does he look a lot like K.Will? Dae Sung kinda sounds like K.Will to but his voice is a bit softer.

    too much trash talk from the comentators here ei….(only some i mean)

    this is just my opinion…why some other poeple complement like they where so perfect in this world….they speak like a typhoon..tsk3x…

    we dont know whats he up too…im sure theres an enough reason
    for everything…one thing for sure everything has purpose!!
    im sure he got plenty of plan and then actions to do in his career….so instead of throwing tomatoes..why dont we just support him all the way perhaps him and his group make a lots of people very happy and having fun watching him perform!!!
