Article: "I won't be promoting in Korea.." Big Bang 'Lies' and comeback
Source: Dispatch
Dispatch is exposing Big Bang's 'Lies.'
In an Instagram live in 2020, TOP stated, "I will not make a comeback in Korea. I don't want to make a comeback." He chose to refuse activities instead of an apology and reflection in response to fan's criticism over his marijuana incident.
However, TOP's determination became a lie after two years. Through YG, Big Bang's comeback was announced, and except for 'criminal-dol' Seungri, the group will return as a four-member group.
However, the public reaction is cold. As it should be, each member's past noise is worthy of the title 'Big Bang.' G-Dragon and TOP caused controversy over smoking marijuana and Daesung caused a scandal by renting out his building for an "entertainment" bar.
Big Bang are idols for young kids but they have never set a moral example. They used their huge fandom as a shield to make fake excuses and even cheated out of their military duties.
In the case of GD, he explained that he wasn't aware it was marijuana stating, "I got a cigarette while at a Japanese club and smoked it, I didn't know it was marijuana." The judiciary took GD's words at face value and did not prosecute stating, "It's a first-time offense and the amount of marijuana smoked is small." Since then, claims "I didn't know it wasn't a cigarette" have been used as a model answer for first-time marijuana offenders.
GD also used tricks when he enlisted and served in the military. He postponed his enlistment as much as possible saying that he was getting a "doctorate through his studies." He also caused controversy for using a "private colonel room" while at a hospital in the military and often missed duties due to frequent "sick and vacation" leave.
TOP also began testing his "foot out." At the time of his marijuana scandal, he explained that he only smoked e-cigarettes, however, Han Seo-hee's revelations and hair tests revealed he indeed smoked marijuana. He too did not complete his military service normally. He took the social worker route by using his trial to be released from his post. He also used 3x more sick leave than any of his colleagues (especially before and after holidays) and was often out "sick."
Daesung also performed his own "I don't know" operation. In 2019, he was discovered renting out an illegal establishment in his building, that was further embroiled in suspicions of prostitution. Daesung explained, "I was not aware of the illegal business" however the owners countered, "there's no way Daesung didn't know." But even then the judiciary did not hold him responsible for allegations that he aided and abetted an illegal entertainment bar.
Big Bang can say, "We will repay you with music" but other than their fandom, who would want to be repaid through music?
GD, TOP and Daesung never once came forward when the incidents occurred, instead one spent time in his solitary "private" room, the other relied on his "wheelchair" and the other focused on his "real estate."
Although Big Bang is an idol, they're mimicking the old ways of politicians. At this point, I wonder what YG is thinking. Do they have a plan?
