I really hope BB will come back soon. TOP did everything right here. This was a clear message that the band will move forward as four. Sadly the fandom is so divided and this message was needed.

1st of all T.O.P isn't wrong, there could be a problem if he upload it as 5 when Seungri himself say that he out of the group, and i think everyone in Bigbang already accept it that they now is only 4, fans theirself should be more respectful to what they been through despite if Seungri actually guilty or not ! do not push the limit to force your satifaction to others !

[@ChiariPTCSongbird]

With regards to T.O.P. posting the cropped photo, I sometimes forget he's the eldest member. GD is the leader & shoulders responsibility for the group but I think T.O.P. does too, if only in his head. BigBang can't even start planning a comeback until the unify under a clear message & GD's posts haven't helped OT5 VIP move forward. Maybe T.O.P., in his very random T.O.P. way, decided to put the nail in the coffin. No matter what side VIP fall on the issue, BigBang publicly going forward as a band is 4. We can't go back.

@@lils4341 , those who’re the most vocal in expressing their dissatisfaction with Seungri being cropped out of the picture are not actually VIPs. They’re mostly Seungri stans, which supported BB by association, while he was still a member. Real BB fans couldn’t be this… I don’t even know what word to use. They attacked all 4 members on Top’s post, calling them cowards for “ not having the balls to support Seungri”. 🤦‍♀️They also accused them of selling themselves for money and to save their career, instead of being “decent human beings and honourable men” and stand by Seungri. In their opinion the definition on an decent human being is someone who supports what Seungri did. F..k that. I’m a VIP but I’m not defending Seungri in any way, I can’t support someone who did those things. Smoking marijuana, while illegal in Sk, doesn’t compare in any way with Seungri’s accusations. No Seungri, no BB. That’s what they say. I want to kindly tell them to pls f..k off. BB for sure doesn’t need them or their half ass support.

As American I can honestly say that who you elect for your president, their immediate family ABSOULTELY should be a variable. Just look at our presidents. A spouse, their kids and immediate family can say a lot about who that person is in private. That same private side of the nominee is the same person making policy changes. You just have to look at things historically to see this. Choose someone who you can live with ethically and morally.

[@ibelieveinyourgalaxy]

I don’t get what else was expected from T.O.P, even if there was no criminal controversy surrounding Seungri, he left the band, Big Bang in fact are only four now, so a picture of four is what will be presented. As for him cropping him out, I like that he did that, to make it clear that Seungri is not a part of BB and their brand anymore. I sense an impeachment happening soon in SK if the two leading candidates get elected, especially Yoon, who seems to be nothing but problematic. I’m glad you’ve found a third person to vote for and if everyone votes for An Chul Su, without thinking about wasted votes or calculating the likely proof of whether he wins, then we will win. Every country deserves a morally sound leader. Wearing fake designer goods isn’t a problem, passing them off as real and then making money off of the average person from that is a problem. Also the China connection doesn’t seem far off, especially with the fake hoods she has been wearing.

[@embobbisonembobbison1338]

I think on the BIGBANG news, we have to accept what's happened. We have to trust BB. First of all, he left the industry. Second of all, If TOP is showing us he left, we need to accept it. We need to trust BB and look forward to their future, with Seungri or not.

[@musak.3795]

Let's not get into whether you should support Seungri or not. But the thing wich is clear since almost 3 years is that Bigbang is officially 4 members now and realisticly speaking there is absolutely no chance for a 5 member comeback. So if you are a V.I.P you have no choice but to support ot4

[@patriciabarr4710]

[@anab.9115]

Jia's story is hella hilarious. I do have to say this chick is very intelligent she knew how to work this TV show, at first, she was like I'm not interested in anyone, and then she figured out the game and sneakily seduced almost all the guys except for two to get exposure then get fans. She's very tactful however I guess she didn't expect people to get thrown off by her as I (and David) did but worse, people who actually investigated her and revealed the truth. In the end, I agree with David and Danny, she's still going to maintain her fans and the reason is... a lot of people just genuinely like fake. My favorite on this show was top-down Soyeon and Yeawon, they were real, straightforward, and honest. Edit: I mentioned how Jia's story is hilarious but it's funny to a point. Now it's becoming too sad and too far. She shouldn't be receiving death threats and those around her shouldn't be getting harassed.

[@mylovechoerry2233]

Some of fake clothes look better than the original lol

[@monayunita6163]

Yeawon definitely my favorite too.. She doesn’t has any drama and friend with everyone 😂 I also like JinYeon, she doesn’t got a lot of fans but she is very straightforward. She doesn’t lead on Sehun and played with him, but directly show no interest whatsoever 😂 Until their first date on the paradise. She looks innocent and cute, but actually seems strong willed, competitive, direct and never act cute. I think a lot of people don’t see her appeal because she is portrayed as that boring goody girl next door.

[@doriangray3116]

GD posted the 5 intertwined hands BEFORE Seungnie's verdict came out. Thats a fair post as a message of hope that he might be found not guilty. But TOP's post is AFTER Ri was found guilty and that is also correct cos there is no way now that Ri can continue in Bigbang. Bigbang WAS five. Fans who insist on the members including Ri in their public media are just immature and harming Bigbang's future. I wouldn't call them Bigbang fans, they are Seungri solo fans and are Bigbang haters. Many matured VIPs are looking forward to support Ri after he has served his time, in whatever venture he will be involved in then. But certainly for now, TOP is right and Bigbang is unapologetically 4!

here's the thing, regarding seungri, even if he had a ot5 mindset (which i'm not sure he does?), seungri literally left not only the group but the industry. i think it's something everyone forgets. and i feel you guys on the presidential elections... i let out a defeated sigh almost daily. i just want to go live on the moon.

Honestly they are defending a guy who is a millionaire, and was in kahoots with the CEO of the company he worked for. Literally no excuse for what he did, it was nothing but greed and to feed his ego

[@stacie1595]

Regarding the whole Jia situation, I really had no intention of watching the show till her story broke and everyone was talking about it. Initially, I really didn't care. I didn't think she deserved the level of hate she was getting for something as low stakes as fake designer clothes. However, after watching the show, I understand better why people were mad. Her whole personality and career is based upon showing off her clothes. Even on the show, she would make sure she had some designer good on, especially bags, in every shot despite being on a DESERTED ISLAND. Like, what was in her bag? Why did she have a different designer bag for every day? So yeah, I get now why people are mad. Her whole persona rests upon the illusion that she has designer goods. And while I don't really like her, I still don't think she should be harassed online or attacked outright. I hope she improves herself in the future and can gain confidence and a following without lying about her wealth.

[@RoxanneJ81]

I've been a VIP for more than 10 years now. I was so pumped when TOP posted that altered photo. Because K-pop is so manufactured, I feel like we don't truly know what TOP's relationship with Seungri was like. But based on what I remember seeing on variety shows, interviews and concert banter, it seems like TOP wasn't all that fond of Seungri. So if TOP cropped Seungri out as a way to say "good riddance to bad rubbish," I would understand. But again, that's just speculation. Whatever the state of the Big Bang's relationship to each other and TOP's motivation for the post, I think cropping out Seungri was the right thing to do. And I don't think Big Bang is going to have a comeback anytime soon. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they were waiting for the pandemic to end. Big Bang's biggest asset are their live performances. I'm guessing they want to wait for the pandemic to end so they can book a full world tour. I also hope that now that K-pop is officially mainstream in the West, that they will do more promotion in the US, the Americas and Europe.

Can someone tell me why young men in Korea are against the Gender Equality and Parental Division? What have they done? Also both seem awful as candidates.

[@RoxanneJ81]

You can find news articles and videos about it, but basically, feminism has made some progress in Korea, especially with the #MeToo movement. But now, there is a backlash from young men. The economy and housing market in Korea is so tight right now and young people are very stressed out about it. So the young men who are anti-feminist see the (very small) gains made by Korean women as a threat.

[@jaxlone997]

"feminism" has taken on a whole new (radical) meaning in Korea lately, I suggest you don't jump to conclusions (people easily spread false facts on the internet and everybody should fight that) and watch a recent video from a channel called Asian Boss you'll learn a bit about the situation there (the video is not biased)

[@Jeff-wj1gh]

That department had a lot of controversies, released research that people doubted and think they are not working for equality and is discriminative towards men. You can find some news about the department on r/Korea as well and… I’ll just say the department is questionable…

And yes; Kpop has a huge popularity here in the west, and my personal bias as a group is SHINee, but Big Bang is close up as the second. I do understand T.O.P choice of excluding Seungry, and I support that (I guess you know the reason-those issues concerning him is no joke) . New album or what not, BigBang has left us with so much amazing good music that will never be out of date, so let us enjoy !! Keep up the good work, stay safe, stay healthy!! #fighting Love and support from Norway! And btw; would love to send you two some awesome replica with viking design...what do you think? Do you have an official adresse?

Not really, I remember there was this guy from a Korean band that got edited out of an I live alone episode (a show which he had been in before) because one of the members of the band where in a bullying controversy, he literally hadn’t done anything and got edited out. It’s pretty standard practice.

PLEASE do a "Singles Inferno" episode on KZbin!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I already binged the whole first season & I am OBSESSED! I am 100% on David's side on this one Danny. Personality matters & Song Ji A was a real turn off. She really strung those 3 guys along. Her ego was loving it but she definitely wasn't there to find love. Just to get followers & fame. I mean, it makes for fun tv, but if your talking about who I was rooting for, it was An Yea Won & Kang So Yeon all the way! They were genuine & just as beautiful as Ji A. She was not a mean girl or anything, just boring & as it turns out, fake.

Wow that election looks like a reality show, hopefully they can choose the best candidate. :( here in Costa Rica the elections are in February , and one of the candidates is a former president who stole a lot of money and went to Switzerland 10 years to avoid being jailed. and a lot of ppl are voting for him 🤦🏽‍♀️. 50% of the population is undecided. I wish the best for both countries and that they know how to choose the best candidate or the least bad option.

I agree that it would be concerning cause it makes me think of the Rasputin and how he was able to sway due to how much the Empress approved of his opinion. In this sense, depending on how much sway the shaman has on the wife (or how superstitious the couple is) it may affect their opinion in politics

I don’t get the hate about her renting her apartment. People think her company paid for it which is clear you don’t know how real estate works and how strict getting a property is in South Korea. Even in the west TikTok houses aren’t owned by their agencies. Even her building is home to other celebrities, to get a tenancy there, the owners have to do a thorough background check

I loved Singles Inferno and Jia on the show. She was wonderful entertainment. She just did her and didn’t string anyone along. They followed her of their own free will. She is being attacked out of envy. The hate train would have found some reason to attack her. But as they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity”! Without her the show would have been a bust. Without the controversy the show would’ve sank from memory! Go Ji-a! And ppl buy fakes to save money! Go Ji-a!

[@farahoney97]

because of Song Jia is famous known as rich girl image on Single Inferno, she got cast as guest on several show. There's one show Jia has brought a few clothes that she didn't wear and want to give to the host for free. One of the host is Sandara Park(she is known for luxury shopper), maybe she notice it was fake but do not disclose it. Knetizen felt embarassed for Song Jia attitude on that show, if she only wear and not give other celebrities that fake items.

[@melody3014]

Most of Jia's Pringies will continue to support her regardless of this incidence. We started watching her videos for her personality/quirkiness. It wasn't because of her wearing name brand clothing. Hence, Jia was never exposed for wearing knock offs (** pringies didn't look into the stuff she was wearing or her handbags because we watched her videos for the fun content and not the actual product) This changes when Jia completely blew up because of Single Inferno. It attracted new fans that were only interested in JIA because of her rich image and how she wear designer clothing. It doesn't take an expert to find out that JIA has knock offs. A simple google search will show that her channel shirt is nonexistent and only exist as a knockoff version. Wearing fake designer clothes is more common than you think. I see comments in here praising other girls in Single Inferno and trashing JIA. I want people to know that even Yeawon from Single inferno was caught wearing fake designer clothes. She wore a fake designer clothes in multiple ads+ post on Instagram for her followers to promote. Yaewon still profits off from wearing fake designer clothes, "lying" to her supporters, but no one seems to be upset? It's only a problem if JIa is doing it? All the post has now been deleted: lh3.googleusercontent.com/icQw_sEZZ2VkYuSgumcEji8vEOXrkcfgfXquktPUfnhi6wggRDRqI4PwyCK_jytHGcdl76s_RcXC0LZQ90aPJhhJw2VlsSjH2u_uVLngYPX_QQ=s0-e365 (it's the same knockoff top that Jia wore but in a different color. Yaewon immediately delete the post once netizens called her out, but it didn't gain enough traction. No apology, no witch hunt. This is just one example to show how common it is for influencers to wear fake designer clothes. It's only with JIA that people are taking the issue to the extreme) Personally, I do understand the whole copyrights issues etc but I will still support Jia and Yaewon regardless. It's not hurting me or life in any way. Jia is reflecting on her actions already, and I hope she will reflect long & hard for the disappointments she caused to the brands. I just don't think it's necessary to be sending hate and death threats to JIA. She's in her 20s and can make stupid mistakes just like everyone else.

[@ivanovagabriela83]

That's the comment i was searching for. People are blowing it out of proportion. Honestly who cares if she is wearing something expensive or not. I liked how she combined the clothes and her personality too cuz with or without the clothes she is confident and is very charismatic. People started to believe that she is rich and she couldn't do much except to go with the flow yk. If she said it herself netizens would've been upset either way cuz they are jealous. I am sure she knew from the start that people would see that her clothes are fake. It doesn't take an expert to do that. Even the host in the show jia was at didn't talk about it because 1st she probably doesn't care( "you do you") and 2nd didn't want to embarass her (which honestly isn't even embarrassing cuz why would anyone care but ok...). Netizens should learn to look only at themselves bcz they are probably not the best role models either. If they don't like her they could easily stop watching her it literally is that easy. If their life is that boring they should learn a new hobby, start meditating or something rather then send death threats for something so ridiculous. This was my rant. Thank u for listening or should i say reading my long poem🤣. Hope you enjoyed it.

I think it's dumb of Jia to wear fakes on a Netflix show. Did she not have anyone to advice her?! I almost think she was set up. I almost feel sorry for her and admires her a bit. It takes courage and great confidence for her to do her shtick. The girl can act.

this is just another example of capitalism in korea and the obsession with money and status. if you look down at someone for wearing a "fake", that's straight up classism and you should reevaluate your priorities asap. people are more than how much money they make and no clothing item should cost hundreds/thousands of dollars in the first place, when it take less than 30 cents to produce.
