In here will be all big news things, and all for discussion. Anywhere from Daesung's car accident to G-Dragon's new solo album, and all the criticism he's getting for being a bad a** artist.
And I, xDreamCatcher, shall help him out with the news updates and such, so that when one of us is unable to update, the other can (:
All Post in Dark Red is ZeoxHisashori's Information
All Post in Cyan is xDreamCatcher's Information

& Any other sites linked.
Various other sites may be used, but that site (the Big Bang official Fansite) tends to hold all the info we need <3
All topics here will have facts, and my opinions. They'll be clearly stated. The opinions are to start discussions.
____________________________________________________________________________
Subject 1) G-Dragon's Solo Album; "Heartbreaker"
..::Track List::..
01. 소년이여 (English - Boy)
02. Heartbreaker
03. Breathe
04. Butterfly (Feat. Jin Jung)
05. Hello (Feat. 다라)
06. Gossip Man (Feat. 김건모)
07. Korean Dream (Feat. 태양)
08. The Leaders (Feat. TEDDY, CL)
09. She’s Gone (Feat. KUSH)
10. 1년 정거장 (English - Station 1 Year)
~~
So as I'm sure MANY have you read, G-Dragon has released four previews and a full song. Well, is it a coincidence that all four previews have been claimed to be plagiarized? It kind of sucks. But GD is not stupid.
His song Heartbreaker is said to plagiarize Flo Rida's Spin Round. The Leaders, ft. Teddy and CL is said to plagiarize not only Wassup by Untouchable, by Gee Gee by SNSD. Now, the part from CL's line where she says I Don't Care IS from her song, but if someone's stupid enough to say that's plagiarized, then we've lost all hope. Continuing on! Butterfly is said to plagiarize Electric Girl by Oasis. And I forget the fourth XD. And even the Netizens, aka the crazy crazy Korean fangirls of specific members, have even turned their backs on GD saying that maybe they where wrong about his abilities and talent, as well as supporting him.
G-Dragon Gets Slammed for Plagiarizing Cover, Concept Art and Other
http://sookyeong.wordpress.com/2009/08/15/gdragon-gets-slammed-with-another-round-of-plagiarism-accusations/#more-14957
Make sure to check in, for G-Dragon's album drops August 18th. That's less than TWO days away! More will be updated as we go.
Here is a link to the photoshoot for his solo album. He looks very nice, ne? (:Hottie blond GD
and it seems like GD's Heartbreaker MV is the #1 downloaded video on illegal download sites! info @ omona
Zeox's Opinion:
In my opinion, I believe this is a clever way for G-Dragon to advertise. YG even said, with 2NE1, Big Bang, and TWO other solo albums meant to release this year, ON TOP of their Japanese career, that GD would have barely any focus for advertising. So, maybe all this attention, even in bad blood, is meant to be GD's advertisement? I could see that being the case. It's currently August 16th in The Republic of Korea, and the previews where let out days ago - GD might of just had an ingenious plan. Plus, Flo Rida needs to die anyway, GD is so much more love than him.
xDreamCatcher's Opinion:
I frankly think that all these plagiarism news on GD is idiotic and ridiculously outrageous. There is always going to be some similarities between something and another everywhere, whether it's a song photoshoot or design, they're all inspired by something. GD would not do something so unjustified or low, he is very creative and unique. It seems like if there is nothing wrong w/ the album, they seek out other things that they can do to attempt to destroy his reputation. Or, as Zeo had said, it would be a devious way to promote his new album? Who knows.
Previews of G-Dragon's Solo Songs; Previews
1) 소년이연이여
2) Heartbreaker
3) Butterfly
4) Gossip Man - FULL SONG!
5) The Leaders (Wussup)
Info on "Gossip Man."
It's actually rumored, since G-Dragon's gotten so much criticism and issues with this album, Gossip Man was a last-minute song he made to pretty much tell all the haters out there to "Shut the ******** up, I am who I am, I am a musician and I'll do what I want."

Some nice HQ scans for you lovely people, but since I'm too lazy to save and post, here is linky~ (: BIG ONE ft. Big Bang HQ scans(and interview)
In other news, YG has released yet another wonderful episode of their latest live tv show, Big Bang TV and GD TV, episode 6 a few days ago.
Here ya go: Big Bang TV part 1/4 GD TV part 2/4 GD TV part 3/4 and Big Bang TV ft. 2ne1 4/4 Individual Members  TOP found featured in Elle Magazine. With pictures that seem too hot for words, he brings the 50s back! Check it out: 8Q___  So I'm pretty sure you people have found out by now, but Daesung was found in a car crash on his way back from filming the latest episode of Family Outing. Thankfully only his nose seems to be badly injured. Or so it seems. His injuries seem a lot more serious than they have made it out to be. He'll need about 8 weeks of treatment so it seems like he will be unable to perform for the musical SHOUTING with Seungri.
Dae-sung sustained injuries to his nose and back in the car accident on the Pyeongtaek Express Highway, Gyeonggi Province, while returning to Seoul after shooting the SBS television program "Family Outting" Due to his injuries, YG Entertainment has canceled his engagements, including the musical, during his recovery, which is expected to take six to eight weeks.
Rest of info here: @ omonatheydidnt and more here as well as here

TaeYang to release solo album in October! (No News Yet)   Victory Performs More Than His role In musical "Shouting"
article:
"Shouting" alongside Victory, also of the group, seemed to cast a dark cloud over the show.
However, Victory wiped out all worries and stole the limelight in the musical based on the trials and tribulations of the group.
The show is the first joint production of YG Entertainment, a local pop agency, and Seol & Company, one of the country's major musical production companies.
The musical has drawn much attention due to the casting of the pop stars, and aims to attract the teenage market.
It features the two stars and uses their real names to portray the dreams and efforts of young wannabes who shoot to stardom after working as stage staff at a broadcasting company. It is partially based on the group's best-selling autobiographical book, "Shouting to the World."
Without Dae-sung, Victory proved his singing ability and successfully worked alongside Kang In-young, an understudy who took the role of Dae-sung.
Victory dazzled the audience with his charismatic showmanship, brilliant dance moves and powerful vocals.
His voice drove the songs forward and provided a rich and soothing spirit tinged by his nasal yet attractive style. Victory also proved to be a proficient and effective actor who knows how to engage the audience.
Although he looked little nervous while acting, his performance has significantly matured from his previous work, "Sonagi (Rain Shower)."

Seungri to take over Dae's role in Family Outing! how sweet!

It seems that actor Kim So Yeon has gotten injured a 2nd time during the filming of IRIS and shall need 14 stitches. the article about it: Actress Kim So Yeon got injured while shooting. As a result, her ligament was ruptured and needed immediate assistance. This is her second injury in 3 months, the first time was in May when she has to treat her injury with 12 stitches.

OMGod, I know! The album is SO beast.
Hell, I love it so much I even got a banner made for specifically it from a site called Nutrinopets.
Anxiously awaiting the Japanese album, and the maybe-maybe not 2nd Solo Album of GD's tomorrow!
