SBS will be the first end-of-year music festival this year with their schedule set for December 29th (since KBS has not announced their line-up yet, I am assuming theirs would be held on the 30th, in between SBS and MBC).

►►[PICs] Netizens compile graduation photos of pretty boy idols
A compliation of graduation photos of pretty boys from idol groups and their current photos put together side-by-side are circulating quickly around internet portal sites in Korea.
From Super Junior’s Kim Heechul to Big Bang’s G-Dragon and T.O.P. to SS501’s Kim Hyung Joong to TVXQ’s Jaejoong, the photos are gathering attention for capturing the individual idol’s youthful and natural image.
Netizens’ comments included, “The photos of members who look very different from different are particularly fun” and “I can distinguish which ones were the model students.”
►►2NE1’s Dara, “Big Bang’s TOP is shy…we’re still awkward”
“Dara, I don’t think you really fit the YG image. How about becoming an actress?”
To Sandara who had even given up her popularity in the Philippines to become a singer, these words came to her as a huge shock. Working with Yang Hyun Seok had seemed like a dream come true for Sandara as she had liked Seo Taiji & Boys and copied their dances and songs from a young age. Sandara got on her plane excited about fulfilling her dream as a singer in Korea, and that under her childhood hero too.
”I was really shocked at President Yang’s words. He was right though. In the Philippines I had a teenager image, and I lacked skill as well as being ignorant about black music. But even so I never even imagined that he’d tell me to become an actress instead. It felt like the hardships had come.”
Back in 2007 when Sandara signed an exclusive contract with YG Entertainment, the singers of YG who were active at the time included highly skilled artists like Se7en, Wheesung, Gummy and Lexy. There were also countless trainees in YG looking to follow their dreams as a singer. It caused some controversy when it was reported that YG was signing Sandara.
”I think people made the judgement that I didn’t suit YG after seeing my image in the Philippines on KBS’ ‘Human Theatre’.”

►►T.O.P to reveal solo song during Big Bang’s concert
My goodness…sooo much to look forward to this end of January and next month!!
Big Bang TOP will reveal his solo song during Big Bang’s independent concert.
An official revealed on 21st January, “TOP will reveal his new song during Big Bang ‘Big Show’ concert.”
All this time, TOP has participated as featuring for rap in songs like ‘DISCO’ by Um JungHwa and ‘Sorry’ for Gummy, and is known for his rap capabilities. And all these songs have received great popularity, and with TOP’s own solo song coming up, much anticipation is for how it will be received by music fans.
There has been much interests since it was announced a while back that fellow DaeSung will also be releasing a solo album the first half of the year.
Meanwhile, Big Bang concert will take place from 29th till 31st January. And TOP recently wrote on GDragon’s me2day on 19th January, “This is the place we are together” and attached a photo of their performance venue.

►►G-Dragon’s GaHo and T.O.P share ‘Shrek’ accessories?
Haha when I saw this picture of TOP I knew I had seen those shrek ears before so I went to look up keyword ’shrek’ in the iBigBang archives and I gound that G-Dragon’s pet, GaHo had also wore these famous shrek ears before!
G-Dragon posted a picture on his me2day of GaHo wearing those goofy ears while TOP was seen wearing them for their 2010 calendar photoshoot. So who rocks the shrek ears better, TOP or GaHo? Go at it~!

►►[PICs] Big Bang’s T.O.P finally gets a haircut :D
Well I’m not exactly a hater of his previous hairstyle (except for THIS), but he looks mighty fine either way ^^
►►Big Bang T.O.P’s school photo is … perfect?
I know he’s really really good looking and all but doesn’t this seems too perfect? =.=;
Aside from rapping and acting, TOP of Big Bang has been blessed with a prominent jawline, towering height and piercing eyes, which have all played to his advantage thus far. Hence, it comes as no surprise that his school photo for Dankook University has recently taken the internet by storm for no apparent reason other than the fact that he just looks damn good.
Besides his acting and Big Bang duties, TOP (real name: Choi Seung Hyun) has been enrolled as a student of Dankook University since 2008 after he passed the entrance exams in 2007. He�s currently double majoring in Theater and Film.
His school photo has been busily traveling online portal sites, shaking the hearts of fan girls who may have forgotten the effect TOP tends to have on the ladies (and guys).
Netizens have remarked:
“Even from a guy’s point of view, he’s really good-looking.”
“A perfectly symmetrical face.”
“I must attend that school.”
