1. [+1657, -181] As expected... this song is incredibly addictive... but more than that please give us a Big Bang comeback....
2. [+1569, -139] I like the song but I like it a lot since it's been a while since I've seen GD dance like this. He unexpectedly dances really well ㅋㅋㅋ
3. [+1215, -119] I am a good good~
4. [+1068, -127] Full-pledged Big Bang comeback please.....
5. [+1017, -103] It's fun to watch
6. [+169, -19] Big Bang's the only male idol group in our country to surpass 100 million views on Youtube
7. [+175, -25] Why? Well, at first I thought the song was just so-so but then I found myself humming it over and over again.
8. [+157, -18] I fell for the song even more after watching their MAMA stage. It was awesome watching it on TV... imagine how it'd be in person. It's the best... they're amazing

I even can't believe that some of my friends who HATES kpop LOVE the song lol Suddenly they meet me and ask me about the song cause I keep playing the song at my university and the hostel lmao
ReplyDeleteI see that a lot of I-netizens dislike/hate the song and say that it's trash but it's a good song actually. It's not their best but the MV is nice, and the beat is cool and a lot of people enjoy it.. I personally really like Good Boy. It pumps me up ^^
ReplyDeleteI might be the voice of dissent but... I hate the video. It's like neon flashiness diarrhea. The dance performance and live performances are really great but the MV... It's like the most generic thing ever. Surprisingly, I like the song quite a bit though.
ReplyDeleteI knoww! My friend was listening to it on my phone at school and she started dancing in the classroom XD
ReplyDeleteUpvote^
ReplyDeleteI personally prefer any Big Bang members' performaces than the MVs
"it's been a while since I've
ReplyDeleteseen GD dance like this. He unexpectedly dances really well ㅋㅋㅋ" yes a million times yes. he knows he's a good dancer too but he's sooooo lazy so it's fresh to see him actually putting in the effort :p
At least you are not getting a down vote from me :)
ReplyDeleteCause when I first watched the MV, I was like meh for the song and couldn't really focus on the MV. And not until MAMA and the dance practise video I went WOW the performance for this is actually amazing.
Definetly not their best release. Although the song has grown on me I would have wanted a better release. Either way congrats to GDYB.
ReplyDeleteI dont really like the song but my sister always play the song all the time and now it grew on me. -_-
ReplyDelete"I am a good good~"
ReplyDeleteHahahahahah that's totally gonna be my new catchphrase in life
i like the MV, one of the reason is cuz they aren't trying to be you know black, or doing some random vulgar reference (like you know who). its very colorful, and quirky.
ReplyDeleteI wasnt attracted to the song at first listen, but it slowly grew on me.
ReplyDeleteLol my friend who really hate kpop Love good boy, Mtbd, and gotta be you
ReplyDeleteI think that is why they did it, or chose it. People bash it for being generic and because its Trap which is been popular this year but these qualities make it a pretty solid investment for its purpose which was to bring them to the attention of more people.
ReplyDeleteAnd its worked, the BigBang subscribtion has increased a lot since the MV release and while not everyone who sees it will be impressed it still is catching the attention of people who would otherwise be unexposed or even a little prejudice against it.
It's purpose was less for the fans and more for an opportunity of exposure- which is not a 'sell out' move, its necessary to keep growing. They more or less told is it was for the Youtube music awards and it was a quick put together. The chance to work with a well known director and get supported promotion on a international platform was an opportunity they would be foolish to pass up and it was probably wiser to go with something tame that is familiar to international audiences musically and visually yet still is has Korean Lyrics and a little of the childish pop charm within the MV.
Also using TRAP is a pretty good genre with using another language since the words and how you sing is less important than the beat.
I wonder if the people who call it trash have ever driven down a highway or something to this song. It's definitely something I jam to all the time. I personally like it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't really like the song when it came out. Even the music video didn't help at all. Listened to it once and then never again. It's only after I watched their MAMA performance that I found myself humming it. And since then it's on repeat. Lol
ReplyDeleteI think the song is not well accepted in korea. but it is a good opportunity and a hit for international
ReplyDeleteThe international market is better money and they're getting quite a bit of support and attention so they have not lost anything really.
ReplyDeleteGood boy was an easy to listen song and I really can't take the comments seriously when they say it's too americanized. I think Gdragon was just giving a quickie instead of a full pledged sex to a song he normally gave LOL
