2. Beast Beats Big Bang In Japan [NEWS]

Idol group Beast has broken records in Japan set by the "untouchable" group, Big Bang.


According to Oricon Style's homepage on March 22nd, "Beast's debut single "Shock" has sold about 29,000 copies in just one week, ranking them second on the Oricon Daily charts."


This is even better than the group Big Bang who ranked third on the same chart in June of 2009 with their debut single "My Heaven". That was the best record set until now; for one year and nine months. Beast's new record is the best of any foreign Asian artist.


Beast had planned on releasing their debut album, following that up with active promotions and a concert. However, with the recent earthquake, plans have been put on the back burner for now.

After completing their first two headlining concerts in Korea, each of the members are currently focusing on individual activities.

The members were told to express the image of a rock band as they were enjoying a secret party at a hotel after finishing their schedule. This photo shoot shocked many of the staff. Instead of showing the charismatic side, like they do on stage, they showed a beastly side of them where they emitted their sexiness.


The producer of this photo shoot, Yoo Jihee, said, “We are currently planning an event where the viewers will have a chance to win an album that contains the autographs of all the members of Big Bang. The viewers will have to take a picture of Big Bang’s face on the day this episode airs and all they have to do is upload it to Style Magazine’s homepage.”

5.Fans are anxious whether Big Bang will continue promoting with a follow up song [NEWS]
 At the beginning of 2011, BIGBANG has shook the music industry with their comeback and now they are thinking whether they should keep on promoting with a ‘follow up’ song. On 24th of last month, they have made their comeback by releasing a mini album after their 2 years and 3 months’ hiatus. They have done their music and TV programme recording.


Then, they have been sweeping awards in music programmes which shows how powerful they are. On the 1st day of the album released, the songs of their album have captured the 1st-6th places of all major music charts. They have ‘all- kill’ again.


According to Hanteo, they are expected to receive the honor of ‘The Best Selling Album of the Year’. BIGBANG has also achieved excellent results in the TV music programmes. On 20th, they got their 3rd consecutive mutizen in SBS ‘Inkigayo’. They have already gained 9 mitizens in a row ever since they came back. In 3 weeks, they managed to gain ‘Triple Crown’.

Under much expectation, BIGBANG released their mini album and more performances are anticipated from them. And it is their habit to take some time to relax after finishing their album promotion. However, not only the title song ‘Tonight’, ‘Café’ and ‘What is right’ are also remaining popular among fans.


Therefore, YGE is now hesitating since it has taken such a long time for them to reunite as a group after the solo and duet activities. The voices for extending their promotion period are overwhelming. This ‘first- class’ album of BIGBANG has showed how they can still keep their individual colours while staying in a group. They have matured thus, better collaboration can be seen.

They have tried ‘heavier’ songs genre which are also more sentimental in the delivery which shows how they are dare to be different than other artists. Nowadays, the members are focusing on attending different music and radio programme for they want to communicate with the fans.


A staff of YGE said, "Whether we will keep on promoting with a ‘follow up’ song depends on how the members think. After such a long break, fans are still so supportive to them, we do want to repay them." Such kind of dilemma emerges since they have topped the album sales, digital sales and TV programmes rating once they have come back.
