the most precious picture of taeyang to date!! he looks like a cute little baby himself hahaa

awww..it's too cute for words..can you just imagine him as a dad? he will probably fawn over his kid 24/7..

I'm happy with the dance m/v of "wedding dress" nonstop Taeyang..can't complain..as much as I loved his HOT album and promotions, this one for his new album is "fresher"..I'm glad he didn't take the route that so many artists take during their sophomore album by trying to be "darker"..he is showing the same Taeyang that we all loved and drooled over but playing around with his other great traits. 2009/2010 will be a great year for him

Taeyang says:: “I’m Still Dreaming of Love”


When people in their 30s hear the news that their first love is getting married, the first song that comes to mind is Yoon Jong-shin�s �Your Wedding.� But to teenagers, it appears to be �Wedding Dress� by Tae-yang of Big Bang (real name Dong Young-bae, 21).

Tae-yang released his first solo mini-album last year, with his song �Look Only At Me� becoming a big hit. Recently, he has released his first solo album �Wedding Dress�. He is the third among the Big Bang members�after Seung-ri and G-Dragon�to go solo.

Tae-yang looked somewhat haggard when we met with him on November 17. Wearing his hat tilted, he looked handsome, with his smile being especially charming. His Mohican hairstyle, with his head shaved on the sides, created a perfect harmony with the simple earrings in his ears. He is known as the quietest and most pensive member of Big Bang, and that is exactly how he appeared to be that day.

Tae-yang said, �I haven�t been able to sleep well for days. I can�t sleep when I think of what I�m going to do the next day. When I had just debuted, I couldn�t sleep at all. I even seriously considered getting help from a sleep clinic.�


Tae-yang said that this year he looked back on himself and gained full control of his mind. He said, �I had many worries this year. We were so busy performing in Korea and Japan that sometimes I had no idea what I was doing. When several of our members were active solo and I was left alone in the house, I asked myself, �Why do I sing?� It was hard for me, but the answer is: I sing for myself.�

Tae-yang says his newfound mental discipline helped him better concentrate on recording his single album. He was fully involved in the songwriting process for the first time and wrote two songs in collaboration with producer Teddy. The title track �Wedding Dress� and the song �Where U At� from his album are based in the R&B genre. The sentimental melody and funky beat harmonize perfectly with his modest yet impressive dance moves.

�Wedding Dress� is about a man who sends the woman he loves to another man. When Tae-yang had just debuted, he said that he had never had a girlfriend. So what was it like for him to sing about love? He said, smiling, �It�s embarrassing for me to say that I have no experience in relationships. I have never had a girlfriend but-�as this song about one-sided love suggests-�I have been in love, which was never realized. That�s why it was easy for me to understand the mood of the song. It would just be an excuse to say that I don�t have time to date girls. I�m simply not ready yet to accept anyone into my heart. But I�m still dreaming of love.�

On the question whether Seung-ri and G-Dragon inspired him to go solo, Tae-yang said, �Rather than pursuing success, I wanted to sing songs that I really liked. I wanted to sing sentimental songs. Both �Look Only At Me� and �Wedding Dress� are warm songs that are pleasant to hear when it�s cold outside. Because Big Bang�s songs are very upbeat, I wanted to sing poignant and serious songs as a solo artist.�

Tae-yang said it was heartbreaking for him to see G-Dragon, his friend of nearly 10 years, have a hard time because of the plagiarism scandal over his songs, which took him great effort and hard work to write. But he admitted that K-pop is dominated by idol groups these days, saying, �There are many idol bands these days and their music is easy to hear. Despite the wide diversity of music genres, people just can�t afford to pick the music they like. That�s why our role is very important. We must present music that can make a difference.�

With regard to Big Bang�s unrivaled status in K-pop, Tae-yang said he first learned that Big Bang�s name was a hot issue when he was participating in the recording of the song �Halleluiah,� the theme song of the TV drama �Iris.� But he says he still feels awkward to be a part of an issue-making group. Tae-yang appeared tired of cameras always following the Big Bang members. He also added, smiling, that his fellow group members are his only friends, even almost four years since his debut, because he does not bond easily with people.

The average lifespan of idol bands is less than five years. We asked Tae-yang whether he had ever thought about his future and the future of Big Bang. Tae-yang found our question difficult. He said, �If we continue to love music, like we do now, each of us can perform solo while also releasing albums as a group. If I become an influential person someday, I would like to join good causes to help the underprivileged. Just as I liked Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Boyz II Men and Beyonce without a reason, I also want to be a singer who people like without a reason.�

First thing first, the picture of YB & the baby is total LOVE. I love the way he's just smiling so brightly and the baby is adorable.<33 It makes me wonder how YB's baby is going to look like. ;D

�It�s embarrassing for me to say that I have no experience in relationships. I have never had a girlfriend but-�as this song about one-sided love suggests-�I have been in love, which was never realized. That�s why it was easy for me to understand the mood of the song. It would just be an excuse to say that I don�t have time to date girls. I�m simply not ready yet to accept anyone into my heart. But I�m still dreaming of love.�

YB is just so adorable. It's makes since with what he saiad, he has been in love but hasn't realized it. You can't write a song without knowing that exact feeling. One-sided love, it's so sad and definitely hurts which is why I love 'Wedding Dress' so much, too. Wow, he's not ready to accept anyone in his heart. When he does, all I can say is that that girl is definitely very lucky. (: I'm just like you YB, not ready either. XD

He is the third among the Big Bang members�after Seung-ri and G-Dragon�to go solo.

Um, don't they mean he's the first...and not third? Well, I don't know.

PS. he's such a cutie shorty! lol

[shinhdeplol]

He is the third among the Big Bang members�after Seung-ri and G-Dragon�to go solo.

yeah i find this part a bit weird too. it may be reasonable to say Seungri is first (because of his Sonagi musical) but how about Jiyong?

perhaps it's a mistranslation

a pretty sad news, Wedding Dress has disappeared from the TOP 20 on Cyworld Chart

I don't wanna say this really but...... Wedding Dress is getting kinda boring to be performed live. Please don't hate me, you know I love bae to death. Maybe because his stage is so simple again?! I don't know. I just felt that it lacks a certain oomph..??

I watched his perf live on TV. I was only waiting for him to perform yet I'm kinda surprised when he came out in the middle of the show. Why??! I mean he's the biggest superstar there, he should close the show. But anyway I'm still happy I got to see him without the hat/cap. I think he's kinda tired too, maybe practicing for MAMA tomorrow. I wish he wouldn't overwork himself. I was waiting towards the end of the show but I didn't see him. Maybe he already left?! Anyway the clip before he performed is so cute... showing his love for Boss again! love his smiles so much!

I didn't watch it live, but I'm surprised he didnt close since this was his Music Bank comeback~
I kind of agree his stages are lacking, especially if we compare Look Only at Me with Wedding Dress, maybe its because we've seen that type of stage before with Big Bang. With Look Only at Me, the whole look (including wardrobe) was unique. I've quit looking at the charts but frankly, they're depressing and I don't want to be reminded of the lack of fan support he's been receiving for a song this good.

[GacktSamaChachamaru]

Just watched the Music Bank Comeback and read about the charts...does his song really just not sound good to koreans? Everyone I've let listen to his music thinks its really good...so maybe in the kpop world of autotune and attention whoring, YB isn't standing out enough..which is unfortunate.

Entertainers in music that aren't true artists or musicians tend to urk me, so I try not to get too wrapped up in the whole ranking/popularity thing. I just hope Taeyang really does think its about putting out real music that people can find a soul/emotion in and doesn't get discouraged by the lack of VIP support. Where are the Korean VIPs btw....is it because there is no album to buy? or just out of a true lack of liking the song? do they find his stages THAT boring? wtf?

BTW, anyone know how to buy his digital single off yg-music with a US Mastercard? I keep try, but since I fai lat Korean...I can't get past the KCP Payplus screen.

I usually stay away from places where mass gatherings of fans are, but Taeyang fans are cool people..so I'll be back

AWW I really want to see his performance right now but I am at work..darn work get in the way of everything! Anyways I can't wait to see Tae in a suit!! I love Wedding Dress and his dancing as well as dance move for that song is awesome. I don't usually look at the charts well kpop charts since they are not a good indication of how good a song or artists are. Like YB said Korea now a day is saturated with idols song..even YB recognized that in his early interview so I don't think he is too concern about the numbers and ranking. I think people in the industry know it is a good song and album (soon to be release) and he will be recognize then if not sooner!! Hwaiting YB!

hmm but I wonder what us iVIP can do though. I try to buy the song but since I am not Korean I can't! If anybody have any suggestion on what we can do to boost up those numbers let us know!

I think it is funny how YB fans are just like him, very chill!

[sh1nhwafan]

i wish taeyang would know how popular wedding dress is overseas. seriously its a major hit. its been a while since so many people i know like the same asian song!
