Translation My Heaven

Love you girl only you are my heaven
sing it together
Lalala..
big bang
Lalala...
Hey T, let's do it bro
Go go go..
It’s the truth if I say you are my eternal lover
everything in the past is like never let gon
ever knew that love could come and go just like that yo
waiting for you day and night in my dreams and go
summer flow in the night, take flight and glow
that's forever love

That “you would be with me tomorrow”, it’s gone
Even though we had great times together, why have you gone
Love has always failed to grab my hands
Only you somehow are a little different
I always felt this was fate
From now on you're the only one in my life

I want to see you, I want to see you
I’m waiting for you by that sea
My feelings for you
Whether it’s the morning, the afternoon, or the evening
I want to see you, you are my heaven

happiness...sadness...tears...
sky...stars...and my heaven

Only you are missing
But the world is so colorless
The depth of the damage is immeasurable
Those lips of that days are still warm
But even if I keep remembering them, I’m at loss of knowing what to do

Oh baby, memories of you are still in my heart
Oh baby, your messages still remain on my body So that this unable-to-cool-down heat can be stopped
Oh baby, the cold rain is falling
Because of you

Please don’t vanish, don’t vanish
Please stop the time at that summer
I’m still holding those memories, whether it’s autumn, winter, or spring
For eternity, you are my heaven

Hey, hey, listen to me
Finally the message came
There’s only “I’m sorry”, I really don’t understand at all
Just one more time, come to my side, smiling like those times

I want to see you, I want to see you
I’m waiting for you by that sea
My feelings for youWhether it’s the morning, the afternoon, or the evening
I want to see you, you are my heaven

24/7 My heaven

Dae was SMOKIN’ on that red carpet, whoo~ boi, when you get so fine? haha LOL at the.. headgear guy with his overly excitedness for BIG-A-BANG! haha



BoA wasn't the only Korean artist in attendance at MTV VMA Japan on 30th May, Korean group Big Bang was there as well. They weren't there just for the festivities however, they actually had a role to play.

Big Bang was introduced as "Guest Celebrities" and showed off their Japanese and English linguistic skills for around 30 seconds before introducing Katy Perry. I can't really say much about their Japanese, because I don't know Japanese, but their English seemed pretty good. It seems like G-Dragon is getting better with the accent. Thanks to justine for the tip!

Big Bang & w-inds. – Backstage of VMAJ 2009

The reason for collaborating with BigBang GDragon:


‘Rain Is Fallin’ is the song that is collaborated with Big Bang, right?


Keita: Yes. Big Bang leader, G-Dragon has participated in the rap part.

Ryuichi: I’m R-dragon (smile)


Ryohei is also R-Dragon right.


Ryohei: You still don’t know yet. Ryuichi’s Ryu is ‘dragon’ (pronunciation of dragon in japanese and korean is different) You should know about this.


Oh, I see.


Ryohei: Yes (smile). G-Dragon is a rapper, and also capable in lyrics writing and composing, he is only 21 which is younger than us. We were too surprised when we heard of this song for the first time. We sent over the song to Korea, after adding the rap, we had goosebumps after we listened to it.


Has this stimulated/motivated you?


Ryuichi: Of course, since this is our first cooperation, we are glad that we were the first to collaborate with him. We were also shocked by his English pronunciation as well as his performance.

Ryohei : We thought that there will be Korean pronunciation, however the manner of his eng rap is different from ours, that really has stimulated us. His dancing too, has attractive skills in it, we are really inspired by him, feel like we have learned something.
HipHop/R&B in Japan and Korea, has been influenced by US, and it’s a great impact, this influence has been used by dancing and also music.
Keita: Japanese music has also been developing toward that kind of style. In this moment, we are pursuing to do the music that we can make now. After the first collaboration with G-Dragon, I feel that he has lotsa talents that a normal 21-yr-old don’t have, and I’m impressed with his courage. This made me think that I should do the same too. In music as well, I have more inspirations lately.


What is the reason of the cooperation with G-Dragon?


Keita: We have participated in the ‘Asian Music Festival’ which is hold in Korea last October, the local staff has introduced some popular Korean singers, including Big Bang, to me during that time, and I’m quite interested in them, so I went online and searched about them. After that, I heard that they will have concert in Japan in Nov, so I went to see their concert. Their performances and vocals are great, and then I had this thought to work with him.

Ryuichi: We have participated on the same TV show in this Feb, therefore when we met him in the set we told him about the proposal [Let’s do something together~]

Keita: During the recording of ‘Rain Is Fallin’, since there is a rap part, so we requested for his help [Can you collaborate with us?], and he agreed with it immediately, hence the collaboration is done.

The latest is that things are being worked out now between SBS and BOF, so no conclusion yet, just Korean media jumping the gun. But the conflict in schedules are indeed a big problem.

Inevitable when it comes to variety but still sad to see it become reality. Park Ye Jin's management agency, BOF announced on the 25th that the Family Outing episode with Choo Sung Hoon which will be aired in 2 weeks time on 7th and 14th June will be her last. Ye Jin is sad that she has to leave Family Outing because she has developed so much feelings over it, the bonding with the other family members and the fact that it has made more people take notice of her after appearing in it for close to a year.

The decision to leave SBS Family Outing was because of the daily filming schedule for MBC's Queen Seon Duk (debuting on 25th May), where she plays Princess Chun Myung. In addition, Park Ye Jin will also be filming for a movie which will start at the end of May concurrently. Previously, Ye Jin had taken on KBS2TV Hateful But Once Again together with Family Outing, which took a toll on her health and saw her falling sick.

There's no further word from SBS as yet on how they will handle this but Park Ye Jin's absence from Family Outing will be sorely missed in the long-term.

My Comment :

*It'l Horible!!! she is CUTE when she do any activities on FO!!!

I felt somewhat relieve to read this interview, it’s true that we all want to see Bong’s solo album like now, but we also don’t want him to stress him out so much. No matter how long it is, I think I can wait, as long as he’s healthy and hyper like he’s always do, even 10 solo albums can’t compare to that. And I also love how he said Big Bang is more important to him, the true Kwon Leadah.

Group Big Bang leader GDragon talks about the responsibilities he has as a leader to the group.

He met up with some reporters recently and talked about his solo album, “I am very sorry to fans about postponing the release date of my solo album. But as compared to my solo album, Big Bang is more important.”

GDragon’s solo album was initially set to be released in April or May. But a while back, YG Yang Hyun Seok wrote a note on YG Entertainment’s official website saying the album will be postponed till August instead.

He explained about GDragon had a little slump/depression symtoms from work and stress. And he had told GDragon to do his solo album at his own pace instead.

GDragon who has been back from his fashion vacation in Europe said laughing, “Since debut I have been working non stop, and I was tired. Furthermore it was much pressure on my side about my solo album. And my head went a bit complicated, but I assure it is not like the depression that everyone is worrying about.”

The pressure he had about his solo album was to show his individual style that is different from Big Bang. He said, “Currently the recording and working for the album has almost completed. But until the moment the album is released, I’ll have to work on brining out my own style. Because of that, I’ll keep the concept of the album secret for now.”

About his vacation to Europe recently, “If I had more time, I have more places I wanted to see but I went to London and Paris, and flew to Japan after that. Personally I like bustling and crowded London more. Going on a vacation like this without having to worry about anything, I think I cleared up my head a lot.”

GDragon will fly Japan on the 28th. Then he would attend MTV Video Music Award Japan 2009 on 30th with Big Bang, and the group will continue with the Japanese activites. GDragon will then release his solo album after that.

He said, “This time we are going to advance into the Japan major market. Because this plan is more important, we don’t know if my solo album release will have to be postponed further or not. But like I said, to me, Big Bang always come first.”

RANDOM LIFE LESSON #1: keep your blood pressure in check!- although in those rare instances, it PAYS to have high blood pressure HAHA.

NEXT! our generation’s role models have been appointed spokesmen for the ministry of justice of korea. it’s a great honor to be recognized by your gov’t! big bang is hitting all areas of culture & society. yay them!

Popular idol group Big Bang attended a ceremony on 18th May at the Education & Exhibition Center for Seoul where they appointed as the new image ambassadors for the Korean Ministry of Justice. The main focus of the Ministry of Justice in 2009 is to reorganize the whole cyberspace and restore order. Considering that most of the internet users in Korea are teenagers, they decided to appoint the highly popular idol group, Big Bang as the image ambassadors to reach out to them. The appointment certificate was handed to Big Bang's leader, G-Dragon who was sporting a new hairstyle by the Justice Minister Kim Kyung Han. In return, G-Dragon gave a copy of Big Bang's CD to him. Daesung was not present because of filming for Family Outing.

LOL. Bong just stood there and nod his head like he understands what’s going on kaka

Bong performed ‘Rain is Falling’ with w-inds. and it is hot. Maybe it’s the difference of the country/mic/sound system or whatever, but the audio quality is just amazing! I can hear Bong’s rap so clear and clean it’s just AH~ i love hearing his voice without all the vocoder crap. He announciates so well I LOVE IT!! And I also find myself falling for w-inds. especially the vocalist, Keita… he is just fine… with some awesome voice haha Bong rocking his long locks and headband haha such a hippie. Keita and Bong get along so well haha I love it when they do the ‘AND YOU! AND YOU!” move kaka leave it to Bong to run down and scream to the camera haha

Dude… seriously, is it because Japan’s sound system is so much more advanced than Korea?? cuz damn, I am loving this, if only music shows in Korea can be like this, cuz this is amazing, I’m sure they’re singing live and yet it sound JUST LIKE the damn record. HOT! Keita’s voice is melting.

HOT DEBUT!!!

By: bigbangkorean.wordpress.com, YouTube

Oh my god, you have no idea how happy I am to know that they will release a decent Japanese MV with plot lines, dance videos are cool and everything, but touching story lines and seeing Bong running with his scrawny legs will always be better.

Driving in a green car, remind me of the ‘We Belong Together’ days. GRI shot makes me happy. This give me a ‘Haru Haru’ vibe, I love ‘Heaven’ and I bet the Japanese version will be cool too. Looks like Bong decide to keep the ‘push-back-pony-tail’ look for this MV, gives a Japanese feel too, cool.

*I can't wait for the release this song...

By: bigbangkoran.wordpress.com

this is so hilarious. i told you girls were crying in japan when they saw them haha. you get to see a lil bit of BB performing “My Heaven” during their press conference.

Big Bang “It was sensual so we were surprised…” Debut as a Model at Fashion Magazine with a Shocking Style

Big Bang challenged themselves with shocking style for their debut as fashion magazine models.

Big Bang who recently released new single album ‘My Heaven’ in Japan, had a photoshoot for a men’s fashion magazine ‘Arena’ with world famous photographer Terry Richardson.

Big Bang members first introduced themselves with brief English before a photoshoot began at a studio located at Kangnam, Seoul. When Terry turned on a Michael Jackson song, Taeyang responded with a Michael Jackson dance. While TOP was doing an action of spitting out flower petals , Terry kept saying “good, good,” and went on with the harmonious atmosphere throughout the photoshoot.

Terry Richardson added ‘freedom’ and ’sexiness’ on top of each member’s natural ‘color’ for their styles during s shoot, then he appeared as a model for a June cover of ‘Arena’ to capture a memory they made and shared during a shoot.

After photoshoot, Daesung said, “The photo concept was sensual so I was a bit surprised, but I finished it well. I think I can be sexier if I get another chance.” G-Dragon said, “I really wanted to be in front of his camera because I really like Terry’s photos. My wish finally came true today,” and smiled happily.

Terry Richardson quoted, “I will never forget about Big Bang’s pureness. I don’t like typical and fixed things. They looked more like playful boys rather than superstars,” during an interview with ‘Arena.’

‘Arena’ with Big Bang’s cover and their photos will be released on the 20th.

Big Bang is endorsing 2% water, and they’re doing a CF base on the concept of bloodtype. Tabi is bloodtype B, and is the playa, he gets close to the girl… about to kiss her? no… smudge her lips hahaha then pushed Baby out of the way kakak he said “Love is a game”. Bong and Baby are both bloodtype A, so they’re in this together, with Bong being all sexily depressed while Baby is being cute, so I think it’s about Bong loving his friend’s girl. aww…Bae is bloodtype B, the cold hearted one, leave the girl just like that. Dae bloodtype O (MINE too!) and he’s the cute one, awww…. he look so cute, then he start to cry, probably first time ever I saw Dae do that.

Big Bang 2% CFs

TOP’s Kiss Scene in ‘19′???
It was a almost kiss in the 2% CF, but what about the upcoming film Tabi and Baby will starred in, “19″ we don’t know if there will BE a kiss scene, but these previews………..hm… take a look, steamy.

YG Entertainment announced, “From the 11th, in line with ‘Family’s Month of May’, Big Bang’s stage costumes and clothes will be sold for charity. They will be sold through internet live charity sale (Ssaeng Ssaeng Live) on 14th May.”

“All the proceeds of this 2nd charity project, together with the ‘WITH’ project, will go to teenagers in need.”

Fashionista Big Bang has also all this while influenced much of the fashion trend of young Koreans with their sense of fashion and music. Because they want to put their performing clothes to better use, they have refused several other proposals before this.

40 sets from when they were performin ‘Lies’, ‘Last Farewell’, ‘Haru Haru’ and ‘Sunset Glow’ will be sold from 11th to 24th May. Each set of clothes will have Big Bang’s autograph on it.

Big Bang, “We are very happy and excited that our clothes can be used for such a good cause. Since this is for the benefits of everyone, we hope many people will participate in this charity sales.”

A production announcement press conference was held on 12th May in Seoul GooRoDong 9th Avenue for the upcoming KBS drama ‘IRIS’.

The main cast Lee Byung Hun, Kim Tae Hee, Big Bang TOP, Kim So Yeon and Kim Seung Woo were present at the press conference.

‘IRIS’ is said to be the best anticipating drama of year 2009 with its famous cast.

Lee Byung Hun acts as Hyun Joon who is works for NSS investigating a great national conspiracy. Kim Tae Hee acts as SeungHee who also work for the NSS. Whie Kim So Yeon acts as Kim Seon Hwa who works as both a staff at NSS and also a operation agent in the drama.

Also Kim Seung Woo acts as a North Korea escort team leader while TOP plays a cruel killer in the show.

The show is set to be 20 billion KRW in the making, and its cast will bring the viewers through action and romance scenes with the backdrop of Asia and European countries.

The drama is set to air in the latter half of the year in September.

Translation on the interview with TOP:

TOP talks about the difficulty in acting for this drama.

He said during the press conference, “The truth is that I had a lot of pressure doing this drama. At first, it was a lot of pressure on me, but then now it is more like a great sense of responsibility. I take the role in the drama very seriously and I also learnt a lot from the senir actors. It is great that I can show a different side of me through this drama.”

This is the first adult role taken up by TOP since his drama on KBS ‘I am Sam’. He said, “I act as a teenager in the drama ‘I am Sam’ in 2007 but with this drama I’m acting as a killer. I did preparations myself and also learnt along the way from the seniors around. I’m very excited about being able to show a new image of myself to the Korean and Japanese fans.”

“Of course there are difficulties to this role too. From what I see, the character is very different from myself in actual. Hence it is tough acting as a cruel killer.”

KBS show ‘Entertainment Weekly’, which has recently angered Big Bang fans with mistaking the composer to Big Bang song ‘Lies’ as the Brave Brothers instead of GDragon, has made an official apology.

They wrote an article on their viewers noticeboard on 11th May with the title ”To inform”. In the post it was written, “There is an error in the caption on our show on 9th May where we put up a caption saying ‘Lies (Big Bang) – Braves Brothers composition’.”

The production group said, “The song ‘Lies’ is composed by Big Bang member GDragon which it is arranged by the Brave Brothers. Our production group will be more prudent and pay more attention to such details in the future.”

*T_T i hope they don't do this on next TIME...

I had this thing on so loud, Tabi rapping to ‘Wonderful’ scared the crap out of me when I first saw it, then I saw him and his lip pouting self… AWW… how freaking adorable can he be?? Then I spot Bae playing baseball with Baby.. aww… if you haven’t notice lately (or ever since mid-January) Baby gotten buff, his upper power strength have gotten a lot more stronger now. Maybe Bae helped him with his excercise and stuff, these two does look a lot more closer now.

G-Dragon Back to Korea This Weekend at the Earliest, Doing Well in Europe
Big Bang’s G-Dragon (Real Name Kwon JiYong), who left to vacation in Europe recently, is enjoying the vacation to the fullest and having a happy time.

YG Entertainment said in a phone call with Newsen on the 7th, “Starting from the UK and going around Europe, G-Dragon is taking a break. We have received word that he is doing very well. We have not set a precise date for him to come back to Korea, but at the earliest, he could comeback this weekend.”

G-Dragon left for Europe a while ago. Yang Hyun Seok has recently revealed through the official homepage that G-Dragon had spent day-to-day being busy after Big Bang’s debut, and as a result of that, his mind was worn out, and the solo album which was projected to be in April was postponed. Yang was also worried because G-Dragon had symptoms that were similar to depression indicating that he was in a sort of slump.

However, YG Entertainment said, “He was back to his normal self before he went to Europe,” and “Although he may be somewhat fatigued, his mind and body has gotten better.”

On the internet, a picture of G-Dragon having a joyful time in Europe attracted a lot of attention.
Also, YG Entertainment asserts that “G-Dragon is keeping up his good condition to the point that fans will not have to worry,” and “In the future as well, we ask for lots of encouragement.”
