22nd Seoul Music Awards

You're really sick when you see one thing...

Seoul Music Awards. Self-explanatory. Although I'm not happy with all the choices, but it's a given I just HAVE to rant and miaoul and maul other artists in favor of my own.

Oh yes, I'm high on sugar so I may not make sense.

K-entertainment Part 2

From some tumblr, don't remember, but applies here.

   Weekly round-up of whatever happened in K-ent and its fandom. I may be slightly out of touch, but as for me, nothing major happened.

Our Lord and Saviour, that is Heechul is still in the army.

Korea and drugs

   Web is abuzz. Netizens don't know how to react - either put G-Dragon to hell or forgive him. There are comments that make me giggle like: "Oppa didn't mean it!". Oh yes, butterfly princesses, he DID mean it! I won't believe he didn't know what he was smoking, he probably thought he could get away with that. So maybe this is why he cut his hair short. Ekhem...

The story?

According to investigators, G-Dragon had smoked marijuana sometime in the middle of May this year, and had taken a drug test in July. Although the results had come back negative with an initial urine test, further tests overturned that decision, and he had confessed at the time that he had been taking the drug at a Japanese club when he had visited the country for a concert.

“I smoked a cigarette that someone had given me at a club,” G-Dragon said. “The smell was somewhat different from that of a regular cigarette so I was slightly suspicious that it was marijuana, but it is true that I smoked it,” he said.

According to investigators, since the amount of marijuana was so small and G-Dragon had no prior offences, they decided to give him a warning.

G-Dragon

 

Kwon Ji-Yong (Korean: 권지용) (born August 18, 1988), better known by his stage name G-Dragon, is a South Korean singer and songer-writer. A trainee under the record label YG Entertainment for six years, G-Dragon officially debuted as the leader and one of the two rappers for the Korean hip-hop group Big Bang. Since their debut, G-Dragon has involved himself with the production of their albums: he composed and wrote several tracks by himself, including "Lie," "Last Farewell," and "Day by Day." His involvement received both praises and criticisms from critics.During the hiatus of Big Bang, G-Dragon released his debut solo album, Heartbreaker (2009), which went on to become one of the most successful albums of the year, garnering sales of over 100,000 copies. The album sparked major controversies for the artist, including accusations of plagiarism. (wikipedia)
OK, facts known to everyone. My first encounter with his music was last year, but it was from Big Bang. So, I paid little attention... Until...
