YG Entertainment is Unstoppable: Storm to Hit in Second Half of 2013



YG Entertainment is Unstoppable: Storm to Hit in Second Half of 2013

YG Entertainment appears to be on the move this year.
For the summer, Kang Seung Yoon began the race with her debut song "It's Raining" last month. The song swept the charts as soon as it was released. One month later, she sings her title song "Wild and Young". With full support from Yang Hyun Suk of YG Entertainment, Kang Seung Yoon kicked off on the right foot as a newly debuted singer. Yang Hyun Suk focused on working on Kang Seung Yoon's music video after working on Psy's "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman" music videos.
2NE1 is up next. CL already made her solo debut earlier this summer and on August 7, all the members of 2NE1 will stand together on stage. 2NE1 will release their second title song "Do You Love Me" via YouTube on August 7. It is predicted to be another global hit.

This is not the end for YG. The world stars of the Big Bang members will make their solo comebacks as well. First up will be Seungri. After debuting as a solo artist in 2011, Seungri is making his comeback as a solo artist. The second mini-album consists of 6 songs including the title song "I Have Something To Say."
G-Dragon will follow and then Taeyang right after. It has been reported that Yang Hyun Suk is spending days and nights in the studio with Seungri, G-Dragon and Taeyang to prepare for their comebacks.
It doesn't end there. Global star Psy appears as though he is preparing to release another song. YG entertainment is remaining silent regarding the topic which most likely means "YES."
If Psy will also make his comeback this year, the lineup of YG artists is incredible. Kang Seung Yoon, 2NE1, Seungri, Psy, G-Dragon, Taeyang... the lineup is intimidating beyond belief. It is to the point where YG Family members may have to compete against one another. Other entertainment agencies seem to be on their toes as YG artists' comeback dates approach.

Clara tears up talking about her sexy concept at the 'Reckless Family 3' press conference

Clara spilled tears talking about her sexy image.

On July 30, the MBC Every1 sitcom 'Reckless Family Season 3' held a press conference at the Seoul Yeouido CGV. Clara recently had an argument over her Twitter with writer Gong Ji Young. Clara has been receiving a lot of attention by the media lately and the writer had pointed out that female celebrities fight for attention through wearing revealing clothes, and she had said, "For me, attention is the same as a company worker's wage. When people no longer pay me attention, it means I've retired."

The argument was mentioned at the press conference, and she replied, "I did nothing for 8 years. I had a lot of things to think about during the time. When I saw her tweet, I wanted to tell her what I felt. When I had the break, I felt like I'd been fired." She started crying as she said, "To me, the attention and love I got... I felt as good as if I was getting paid."

She continued, "People ask me, you already showed off your sexy side, so what are you going to do later on? That's why I chose 'Reckless Family 3'. I have a bright, happy side, too, but I was scared of being just seen as sexy. I've been doing a lot of thinking. I'm going to be like a younger sister. I'm sorry that I'm crying right now."
