2.Kim Joong Man talks about Big Bang’s DAZED&CONFUSED Concepts and TOP’s eye infection [NEWS]
The photographer Kim Joong-man worked with three cameras. Big Bang members gathered what ideas they wanted to show, even amidst their busy schedule in Japan.


Taeyang, who has a serious image, wanted to show Good and Bad. Daesung, who has a warm image, wanted to show coldness. Seungri wanted to show double-sided-ness. TOP wanted to show angry chaplain (for a reason he asked me not to publish with his handsome face, so i shall keep it a secret). G-Dragon even got himself special contact lenses.

The day before the photoshoot, TOP contracted an eye infection and did his photoshoot separately. The four other members concentrated on the photoshoot for over 12 hours. A few days later, TOP showed up earlier than the promised time.


To the polite editor, TOP was sorry and said, “I’m too late, aren’t I?” and he checked details on what emotions he should have and what faces he should make before the shoot began.
Editor, who was choosing the best pictures which came out as a result of many peoples’ passions, mumbled to himself— “why haven't you been to yet, until now!”
3.What happened on Yanghwa Bridge on 31st of May? [NEWS]
At the meantime, the autopsy result for the accident which Daesung was involved has not yet released so various speculations emerged. Moreover, the news from MBC News on 19th which said there is a high possibility that Mr Hyun was alive before Daesung crashed his car into the taxi has caused more confusion. For more related information, 'Star News' is trying to arrange it and you can refer to it.


Attention has been drawn to what happened to the fatal accident which Daesung was involved. The autopsy report was scheduled to release on 15th and the delay of it has brought up all kinds of speculations about the situation. Actually, at the dawn of that day, on Yanghwa Bridge, what had happened probably?

So far, National Forensic Service , the police and the survivors are trying to reconstruct the incident all together.


According to National Forensic Service, the alcohol concentration of Mr Hyun's blood at that time was 0.16% so he was drunk. Mr Hyun was drunk driving on the southern end of Yanghwa Bridge when his motorcycle crashed the guard boarders. He then fell with his head


hitting the ground.


Then,on the 1st driving lane of the bridge, a taxi was driving slowly on the same lane and the driver discovered there was a person lying on the ground, he swiftly changed his lane to the 2nd lane. The taxi just returned to the 1st lane after the second accident happened.


Since the bridge only allows 1-lane driving, Daesung discovered the accident scene only after his car crashed into the taxi which was driving in front of him.


Daesung was going to pay a visit to his parents from the company on that night and it was at 1:28 am that the accident occurred.


The core of the accident is when Mr Hyun died. According to his family, Mr Hyun arrived at the place at 1am. Then after spending some time with his friends, he wanted to go home.


Then after about 30 minutes, Daesung's car was involved in the accident. During this period of time, so far there is still no definite identification about whether Mr Hyun died from the massive blood loss or the crash of Daesung's car.


Therefore, I have asked a motorcyclist about how they think what had happened to the situation at that time.


[Interview: a motorcyclist]


Q) What do you think about the accident?

A) A motorbike is different from a passenger car because when you are riding on a motorbike, your whole body is exposed so you are more likely to get abrasions which can result in much bleeding. It is especially important for the motorcyclists to wear a helmet. The helmet of the victim in this accident has been stripped off. Unless you tighten up the strap of your helmet, you can be hurt seriously in the accidents. If you do not wear a helmet when you are driving, you might be hurt in various ways and might result in cerebral hemorrhage.This was related t o the the accident that followed a lot. It is the same case with that of Mr Daesung. He could not see what the situation of the previous accident was which then brought forth a lot of serious problems.


Obviously, it is an accident of a motorcycle which itself involved a high risk for the aforementioned reasons. However, it seems that it is difficult to figure out the cause leading to the death of Mr Hyun. Therefore, I visited Yanghwa Bridge directly in order to observe the situation.


I wanted to find out how the traffic was like at the time that the accident happened. The press reported that at that time, there were 20 cars travelling on the bridge per minute. If so, how frequent would accidents happen there I have asked the policemen from the police station which is located near Yanghwa Bridge about this.


[Interview: Tangsan Police officials]


Q) Are there accidents frequently?


A) Yes, accidents happen here quite often.


There is a confusion with the accident about weather Daesung has stepped on the brake. According to his words, he had done so but there were no skid marks left in the scene of the accident so there are speculation of if there was a defect with the brake in his car.


At the meantime,the parents of Mr Hyun has shared their feelings after the sudden death of their son, 'It did not surprise us if he died in the 1st accident although we want him to be alive.'


Also on the issue whether Mr Hyun was drunk when driving, they said, ' we will accept the results of the autopsy.However, it is not the same when we are talking about whether it was his drunkenness which led to his death since if it was the case, his friends have to bear the blame too since they did not send him home and left him alone.'

They continued, 'please tell us why he has passed away , we should know what happened without any uncleared doubts. Shall we say that even he whom is now in heaven does not know why he died?' The cause of My Hyun's death will come out clearly if the process of investigation goes smoothly.


The analysed cause of Mr Hyun's death from National Forensic Service would be revealed soon. Since what punishment that Daesung would receive will be based on this result, attention was drawn to this issue.


* Translator's note: Since there is a vip asked me to translate this via twitter, I decided to do it for all of you. Although it is just a overall recount of the whole incident together with two minor interviews with a policeman and a motorcyclist, I still hope that it can keep you on track with what is going on with the case and the Korean news about it. Sorry if you find it redundant but anyway, we should just keep on praying for the related parties.^^
