1. [+5828, -86]  YG's practically feeding off of Big Bang ㅎㅎㅎ Amazing~

2. [+4970, -101]  "My mom manages my money" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ  It's funny but cute

3. [+3428, -77]  They are really racking the Chinese money up...

4. [+3132, -76]  Big Bang's class is really different...

5. [+2488, -85]  Seriously God-Bang is incredible ㅋ

6. [+511, -9]  They're a 5-member group, so even if they divide the money in up, their individual shares are still huge

7. [+514, -23]  Honestly Yang Hyun Suk should treat Big Bang better, now that Big Bang will have to enlist, what's he going to do...

8. [+520, -30]  Hyun Suk almost sent GD home back then, what would he have done if he did that...

9. [+496, -30]  They're at this level and yet there are people insulting them saying they're "has-beens"... Shinhwa, SNSD, Big Bang, Wonder Girls.  A group that's been making records for generations and they're being insulted as has-beens.  Do you think your bias group will be in for the long-run 10 years from now ㅋㅋㅋ  Do you really think they'll be in their teens or twenties forever ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even after 5 years, they're putting up a fight and beating their juniors.  How can you call this 10-year long group has-beens ㅋㅋㅋ

10. [+368, -9]  "My mom manages my money" Why is this so funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Article: Big Bang, Forbes 100 selection... First ever in Korea's pop music history

1. [+3877, -119]  Honestly in the Korean music industry they're unrivalled!!

2. [+3278, -127]  Wow daebak, seriously legends

3. [+3308, -187]  This is why Big Bang had no time last year, instead the president blames GD for playing around....

4. [+2546, -96]  That's the revenue, the pre-taxed amount ㅎㄷㄷ Total sales must be around 100 billion won

5. [+2279, -97]  So now just comeback...

6. [+723, -39]  Over Maroon 5... I really have goosebumps, seriously even as a man I can only recognize that they're the best group.  For 10 years, they've been unrivalled, it's unprecedented, will a group like this ever come out again in our country?

7. [+587, -17]  Asia's first ㅋㅋㅋㅋ  Earned more than Maroon 5

8. [+549, -19]  Big Bang's a true legend

9. [+501, -15]  "My card is black, just swipe it infinitely" ㅋㅋ (t/n: lyrics)

10. [+452, -9]  Seriously a group like Big Bang won't come out again... From their debut until now Big Bang came a long way, as a fan I'm proud
