Big Bang is finally coming to America!
Unfortunately, it’s not to perform.
With another hectic year winding down, Big Bang’s trip to the states is to get away from hullabaloo of the Korean music industry. But it’s not all just play. The boys will also be stepping up on their English skills and learning new dance moves (what else?). However, their objective smells strongly of a potential desire for an American debut…. but for that, we’ll have to wait and see.
Not only are the Big Bang boys coming for vacationing and career development, but they are coming to support G-Dragon who is coming to America to work on his solo album with U.S. producers. No word yet on whether or not it will be an all English album like their Japanese album “Number 1″ or which side of the continent he will be residing in (our bets are on Los Angeles because label mates Danny and Teddy of 1Tym as well as Se7en are stationed there as well).
If all goes according to plan, the boys of Big Bang will be saying goodbye to Korea and hello to America sometime in February 2009. The time also marks the end of their promotional activities for the second album “Remember”.
Either way, if the boys make it to Cali, they have to try a bit of America in the form of the In n Out “animal style burgers and fries” (yum!).


first
yey? im gonna miss them.
yay for big bang!
btw, i think se7en will be huge here in america.
i already heard one of his songs featuring lil kim.
“them girls”. madd good. =]
ps: why lil kim of all people? haha. just saying.
they need to go to NY not Los Angeles!
also; gd loooks amazing in above photo ^^
OMG really??!!! ahh!!! thats freakin amazing even tho there not gonna perform. i wonder if they’ll come to SF? i really hope they do!!!
awww…im gonna miss their perfs. in korea..oh well~ it’s a good break for them..
btw, was TOP sort of ‘photoshopped’ out of the picture? he’s missing in the pic. :K
where’s TOP?!
in addition,WG is also coming to US in Feb next year
lol you just cant separate wonderbang
maybe YG and JYP are gay producers,both share same ideas
look at daesung’s face.. zZZzzz!
my god another one?
In n Out burgers are the best. We have one in our neighborhood. I hope that goes for the Big Bang group as well. Try their animal style fries; and while you’re at it, order one of their shakes too. Yummy!!!! All that for less than 10 bucks. Oh,oh,oh, if you’re a big eater, you may have the triple triple burger instead of the double double. Big Bang… welcome to Hollywood.
i wish them good luck there!
BIGBANG hwaiting!! <3
i love in n out burgers haha
reminds me of my friend jonathan….lol i hope the come to perform! in feb….
another attempt to go to the US? First se7en then boa then big bang now… let’s see how this goes… they really have to study their english!!!!!!!!!
No not In n’ Out Buger, they have to try Tommy Buger. Way better!
come to nyyyyy!!!!
really?? I guess DBSK needs to hurry up as well, I love big bang too, I hope they will debut in holywood so I can see them. Wiiiiii…. Does big bang know how to speak engish???
*screams*
I LOVE BIG BANG
I LOVE BIG BANG
yay~~~
they’re coming to the US!!
i was hoping they would come for america^^
watch Father Sm will soon want DBSK to come too
but, no one can beat BIG BANG!! HAHA!!!
BIG BANG FIGHTING!!!!!!
they should definitely swing by CA.
WTF?
NO GD NEEDS TO STAY IN NYC! BOA,7 & BI ARE IN CA. TOO MUCH COMP.! LOL GD! COME TO NYC! LOL
big bang sounds so american when they sing english songs!
i love it!
Why not NY
Unfortunately, it’s not to perform…..Fortunately not to perform!!!I like them in Korea!!!They are great as they are.
their english material is terrible. I’m a huge fan of their Korean stuff but I really hope they don’t try to do America
Hmm… Wondergirls will also be in America during Feb…
NOOOOOOOOOOOO CUM 2 ENGLAND MDAMN U PRETY BOYS!!!!
damn , how am i gonna live without seeing them for 2 3 months , but i guess is for the best huh ???
i’m really expecting more of their activities in 2009 , it gonna blows korea and ( maybe the world ) away , wish them all the best and enjoy this one-in-a-while break ( well, eventhough they still have to work )
In N Out is koo, but Ive never tried animal style….gotta do that some day.
so their potentially last album b4 hiatus in korea is remember??~~
remember-us-cus-well-be-gone-for-along-long-time…
ngeeeks..
i only got into big bang and now theyre leaving???
Oh man!! I used to loooooove animal style but there’s just so much cheese. Eek. anyways. Happy that BB is coming to LA! Not really going to go out and stalk them but it’ll be a nice change for them to be out of Korea. =)
Hold On! Aren’t they meant to be in Japan??? Don’t tell me they just brought out a Japanese album [in English btw] and now their going off to America? I don’t think they know that the Japanese music industry is hard to break through!
When will these artists realize they have a perfectly good thing back home? If there’s any truth to this rumor, Big Bang is probably going to end up attempting to break into the American market for years and come back to a dwindling fanbase. I don’t want to see that happen.
And, not to sound like a hater because BB is my fave KPOP group, but why do I get the feeling that “American Producers” was just thrown into the mix to get a glamorous effect?
last….grrr
then daesungie will have to take a break from family outing then… well, as for their english I´m not very anxious, soc basically YG only owns singer that are more or less english-skilled,,,… maybe it´s their policy or just an coincidence? personally, I´m not believing the latter one….
I’m sure Big Bang would like to debut in the U.S. but not anytime soon. This trip is mainly to learn about American culture, relax and work on GD’s solo album. I’m hoping they don’t have concerts. I love them, but they need to rest.
On a lighter note, now YG can focus on his new girl group set to debut around February.
I thought they’re coming to the U.S. just to take a crash course in English. If they will be based in California, they might learn a little ” Hola cabron ; que paso carnal “. That would be funny.
BIg Bang is taking a long need vacation in the USA. GD is going to work on producing his KOREAN solo album [could be a mini album]the other members will be training their skills in music and dance and have a break away from the hectic korean industry. They will be living in Cali because GD wants to work with Se7en, Taebin, and other yg affiliates. BUT they could have a tour of america AS TOURISTS and go visit hotspots since they will have 2-3 months of vacation
Definitely! If the boys are going to come to Cali, they really need to go local.
please just stay in Korea…
Dude screw LA. Come to NY!!! But i do have love for LA.
SCREW AMERICA.
COME TO ENGLAND.
omg i’am going to kiss g-dragonn when i see him..omg
Damn, February 2009?! I’m going to be in Asia March-August and wanted to catch them live somewhere =( BB just *would* be coming to the states when I’m not here..
i love Big Bang, but i think they shouldnt come to the US to debut XP
geez, im korean, but i think korean stars should stop coming to the states all at once to make more money and fans i guess.. r the not happy with korea?? D:
and i think the US will make em look…. different.. Big Bang probably ahs a higher chance of success than BoA and Bi, but but i still dont want to see every girl in my school or something to go crazy over our korean boys
but since theyre not performing and but to just take a break… …………………………………stalking time
TOP’s not in the photo.. Probably because of the accident. The space they left in the middle reminds me of Kanjani8. I think it’s a good thing to do.
WHOOHOO!!!!
OMG TIME TO STALK THEM!
as much as i dont like the whole “lets go to america” trend…you have to admit…Big Bang is probably the only korean group right now that has any potential of making it big in the US…besides mayb Epik High (who I would love to see in the US, the depth of their lyrics is just awesome..) but BB has ALOT more potential…they’ve already recorded enough english songs to put out a decent album not to mention, they’ve worked with american choreographers and swedish music directors already…its about time they hit the American market..
wow another one. koreans just dont get it. what you have in KOREA is 100 times better than what you will ever have in AMERICA. STOPING COME HERE TO FAIL !!
makes sense that they’re coming in feb 2009.
because the “female big bang” is suppose to debut around that time.
more spotlight time for the girls?
so much for getting fangirls’ hopes up. i love how twisted all the words, popseoul.
THEY ARE NOT DEBUTING HERE IN AMERICA PPL!
I adore Big Bang, but they have to come out strong especially since they are Hip Hop or they will tank over here!!!!!!!!
oh hell yeah, go in n out
!
omgomgomg they are coming to L.A.??
hahaha yayyy
They HAVE to go to In ‘n Out.
said it two months ago, they are secretly making moves to come to america. i am so glad to be proven right.
its not the boys first time to the us. i saw them back in the day before their album came out with the whole yg family in new york back in 06. you know g-dragon’s album will be interesting to say the least. he is a genius when it comes to composition.
Cool! I hope they come to LA. As for their English, I hope they take it seriously…they could do well in America, but it’ll be tough.
Best of luck, Big Bang! The girlies will like you, that’s for sure ^_^
if they are coming for a visit
then welcome
but if they are thinking about making a career here
urgh…. no thanks
dont think they can make it
ew…..
the english is horrible
even my grandma can speaks or sings better than them
In ‘N Out is super yummy.
damn… i was just there last summer x.x such bad timing ~sigh~
BB COME TO CANADA~! =D
<33333
OMGOSH THEY MUST COME TO CANADA FIRST
! and they’re @ states they going to pig out and be fat =0
Wooo!
i hope i see them here in Ca!
excited!!
Yay!. I love them. I hope they go to Seattle to preform. I live in alaska, and I highly, highly doubt they will come up here. Even though we do have a fairly large Korean population.
But I am willing to fly to see them. =]
To marry my Daesung of course
Did you say Feb. 2009? L.A is the place to stay. Plenty of sunshine, cool weather. If they miss the snow, they can go to Big Bear mountain; the beach, there’s Malibu, Venice ;theme parks, how about Disneyland, Magic Mountain, Knottsberry Farm and Universal Studios. Night life? Just walk along Hollywood Blvd/Sunset strip or perhaps go to Vegas. So, how much time is left for English 101, dance and voice lessons, etc. Korea, BB might even go for an extension.
i think they are pretending… i bet they want to debut
BB will not be debuting in the states. Ex. Se7en. I think YG needs to let Taeyang release a full album, let G-Dragon produce it. Ask TOP to beg Jaejoong to be on a track of the album and call it a day.
ouu heck yes.
GD can come on over to MY HOUSE.
kekeke.
on a more serious note, they deserve a vacation, even if they’re “studying”. (:
that sooo coool!!!
I hope they come to New York!!! wooo
good, no need to success in America, who care, they popular enough
hahah in response to someones comment up there. they are probably going to LA. NY is wayyy to cold. even I dont want to be here right now. its friggin brick outside. but the boys arent the only thing I wish would ship over to this side of the country…IN + OUT too! we need one here! soo friggin good.
uh UH man.. hell effing no. DONT DO IT. I LOVE YOU BIG BANG. but if u come to America you will be looked at as a JOKE!
i love big bang but if u come to america u mite be like
se7en who has been waitting to debut!!!
and i think it should be all of them doing an american album
not only g-dragon!!
G-Dragon is so gunna make it.
Wish them luckkkkkk =] so many girl fanssss actually gunna be hella more new girl fanss on to them :O
oh no say it is not so. they should not debut here. since when is boy bands look at? if anything the only one who should try is young bae
please come to seattle
please gdragon visit here
yay!!
big bang in america!!! amazing!!!!
that would be awesome if they come to cailfornia!! i just live a state away! xD
SAN FRANCISCO!!!! PLEASEPLEASE
lol dbsk ate in n out when they went here
I think they will have an easier task… they already have an English album… they just need some polishing, and they’re good to go… why G-D only? Hmmm… They should have a duo… G-D and TOP… then they’d be unstoppable…
I love Big Bang! And so glad that they’ll be vacationing here in the States! I hope that they visit the Bay Area! I wouldn’t mind running into TOP in the city..hehehehe
eeeh boy bands will never make it here in the US
so its pretty fortunate that they wont be debuting
hopefully they wont…
Aw man, ever since I got addicted to looking up Japanese DoCoMo phones, the Korean phones just don’t look very cool anymore to me…
OTL
Well, here we go again. Big Bang is going to turn out just like Rain, Se7en, and Boa. None of them go anywhere! They should just stick to Korea because no one in the U.S. will accept Korean fobs trying to rap in English.
whoa! popseoul knows what’s up with In-N-Out! Don’t forget the neopolitan shake!!
does that mean daesung’s going to leave family outing? =(
in n out is damn awesome. especially with spread…. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
where the hell is TOP in the above pic?
Go Ji! Hahahas but he should touch up on his english first, it just sounds…off hhahahs. He doesn’t have a HUGE accent though, very neat. ” In n Out “animal style burgers and fries” (yum!).” popseoul, you think YG’s going to let the boys do that?!?! I bet you, vacation still means strict diet’s, he’ll probably crack it or burst a blood vessel hahahs. Tabi’s become a fruit addict now anyways xD They might go down and visit Shaun and Aimee, what do you guys think? ^^ and of course, bust some moves too!~ I hope they have anice vacation though, relax and actually go to some concerts, do some shopping. Have fun guys, i’ll be keeping track
hahas sounds stalker-ish..
also agree with tomatojuice, leave Tabi out of the picture why don’t you popseoul, gees, so mean hehes, it seems odd that a topic with Big Bang is missing one of them in the picture.
NO! DON’T GO TO AMERICA!!! T_T T_T PLEASSEEEEEE. YOU CAN STAY IN KOREA AND LEARN ENGLISH THERE. DON’T. LEAVE.
Why do they have to go to America? Why can’t they go here in England?
Good news but Korean shore is more promising
whatever
^
pointless post
aww man, that means that 대성 won’t be in the family outing programme anymore ;^;
hope i spot them somewhere in CALIFORNIA!
probably they’ll be soaking up under the sun <33
what about WISCONSIN???? hmmmm, no one ever ever ever comes here!
Come to Houston guyss =(
shiiiiiiit i hope they come to LA! thatd be exciting.
dang. thats pretty cool. yayforcalifornia.
I predict a massive wave of fangirls moving or driving their way out to LA this next year and camping out at every street corner… yee haw…
why does everyone think big bang has a chance of making it big here in america?
do you have any idea how many have tried and failed?
i hate to be the bearer of bad news but they simply wont make it.
first thing - they have to speak english without an accent.
second thing - they have to learn some kind of martial arts
third thing - amercian has to change its views on asians in the entertainment industry and in general, which wont happen anytime soon, if ever.
my advice? stick to asian countries because the US isnt open minded enough.
FINALLY! Lol I don’t live that far from Los Angeles XD
Duuuuude. They better come to SF area. @___@;
No one EVER comes up north, always LA :/
ha ha ha i agree about in n out
NO!! ARE YOU SERIOUS!! LAST KOREAN ALBUM IS GONNA BE REMEMBER!! WAHH!! this cant be happening and they’re gonna go all american… why!! WHY!!! its the end of the world… OH WELL at least i get to see them
GO CALI FOR ALL THE STARS WHO LIVE HERE
!!!
Big bang would be wise to not try to debut in the US, omarion and chris brown would be dragging their asses to court if they ever saw some of their crappy ass videos LOL.
Big bang is nothing but a less talented gay-er version of omarion, and chris brown really. lol they’d get laughed out in a split second.
awesome!!! LA!! its an hour away from me.. lol looking forward to spotting them! bwahaha!
haku is right, America is so not open-minded enough. they only like what they like and do not think out of the box.
Omg In’n'out is the bomb! I was just there yesterday. The only thing that could make it more tasty is if big bang were there too.
yay! me loves bb!
Ahh my gosh! =]
I’ll definitely be waiting for these babies<3
YAY
but.. why los angeles why not new york ;[..
and wheres top in da pic.? :[
they must definetely TRY america .
like almost EVERY ONE here(cali). knows of them
yyyaaaaay! =] My birthday is in Feb. This would be a GREAT birthday present! GD 8D
yay. come boys, noona will be waiting. lol. haha.
its kool, that they are coming to the US. I wish they came to perform cause it would be great.
yea i was wondering when they’ll ever come here. wish they had concerts tho. and yay! top!
wow…i will be waiting for all of u guys…will be missing u all sooo much…lovesick…hahas…
@ jerk you are kidding me with Chris brown right?
sure he can dance but sing? no offense but big bang can actually sing and dance?
I can understand if you mentioned usher but omarion?
last time i checked he ain’t so popular anymore. Not to say his fans love him anyless or that he isn’t talented.
But also unlike Omarion big bang always bring something new whether it is r&b, hip hop, pop, house, electonic . . .
so stop bashing big bang they definitely don’t deserve it.
soo….ill be there in la… when they come. lol even tho im supposed to go to korea =/ boo.
haha..this is what happens when a country has many cities..
where all BIG BANG fans reside.
CAN’T WAIT!!!
yey big bang!!!!!!!
Come to the Us and to SF. Don’t go to LA that’s not fair that every celebrity go’s there and the Us is soooooo boring here with out any of them. Come to CT(chinatown) in SF plz.Come to my school or something. My school’s GHS (Galileo high school) plz.
screw la ny england and sf come to san jose at the hp pavilion hope to see u there big bang i can teach u english if u want hehe
how the hell are bb goin to debt in america .
boA’s been a celeb since she was 15 and shes still climbin the ladder ..
i think bb is just avoidin kr and using it as an excuse since artists lik bi and dong bang shin ki came bk and they fell down the k-pop market lik a slide
i think they are better off focusin on one spot
first it was jp nw america
Wts nxt china ?
Come to H-Town,TX USA!!
WOW THE US?
Come to New Zealand
ahahhaha
but really, americans aren’t open minded..
Our music industry won’t accept them.
i LOVE big bang and wish them all thebest
but realy, they won’t make it.
i NEVER even hear of Boa Before until my friend gave me a song ofhers.
U never know but i really doubt they are going to make it.
stick to one country boys
America is a very big,,, talanted country. its a hard world out there.
DON’T DEBUT
but go to relax for sure. But if they were smart they wudn’t debut.
THEY will be laughed at
Why doesnt anyone ever come to Canada! I want to see them lol!
OMG thats sooo aweosme. I want to see them. I live in Salem OR and im totally going to go to LA and hope I run into them. It will probably never happen, but I can dream right?
If only I had a reason to go to California, no wait they’ll be here for 4 months from February - June….Now I have to convince my mother that we should vacation in Cali….Hmmm……. xD
But they should be attracted in visiting Hawaii, man they should come to Hawaii…I’ll have more chances of running into them….hopefully lol
xD
