[Instiz] One reason why celebrities want to sign with YG Entertainment

"When Yang Hyun Suk heard that Bobby won SMTM3, he told management not to take a cent from the prize money and give all of the 100 million won to Bobby.  While Yang Hyun Suk is strict when he trains Bobby, he has always been aware of his family's difficult financial situation [...]" 

Others haven't been able to earn much even after working for years.

[1] YG is very loyal

[2] The fact that they get allowance money as trainees too... YG handles money pretty well.

[3] At least he does something right

[4] When it comes to these things, YG is the best

[5] Large companies pay their artists pretty well but smaller companies... their artists don't get paid until they pay off the investments the company made on them when they were trainees...

[6] They're a great company to artists ... but not to fans ...

[7] I'm seeing YG in a new light

[8] I heard that YG goes by 10% to company and 90% to the artists.  If you compare them with other companies, they don't have a lot of financial conflicts

[9] If they would only schedule and promote comebacks well, they'd be a good company.  There's some downfalls to them but if you overlook that, they're actually a great agency

[10] What I like about YG is that they seem to treat their artists as people and not like products

Moon Hee Kyung personally asks Yang Hyun Suk to release song 'Mother' with Song Mino

[Requested] 

Song Mino [Text]:

CEO, I received a message from Moon Hee Kyung and she said to relay it to you ㅠㅠ!

"Yang Hyun Suk CEO,

Hello, I am actress Moon Hee Kyung.

Thank you for sending our super cool Song Mino.

I feel like I've gained a new son ^^

I think that the song "Mother" shows the joys, sorrows, and hearts of all mothers in Korea.

As an earnest wish to erase the stress of mothers, would you give your permission to release the song digitally?

This is my wish before I die ^^

Shouldn't great music be listened to by many people?

Please give us a great decision.

Oh and~ I'm a fan of Yang CEO ^^

From, 

Actress Moon Hee Kyung"

Yang Hyun Suk [Text]:

You made her do this, right?

1. [+5285, -58]  "You made her do this, right?" ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yang CEO's funny

2. [+3326, -65]  I'll be waiting for the digital release then ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+3255, -67]  "You made her do this, right?" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He's got sense

4. [+2329, -49]  The song 'Mother' is really good so that's a great decision!

5. [+2074, -64]  Oh yeah it's going to be digitally released daebak!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Totally love this

6. [+491, -3]  This is totally insane ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Mino, you did well ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+445, -2]  It's one of those songs that are dangerous when you're taking a test.  From Fear's "Father!" to "Umma-ya~~~" ㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+407, -5]  I only listened to it for awhile but it's daebak catchy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+376, -0]  Did you make her do thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

10. [+373, -2]  Moon Hee Kyung X Song Mino's "Umma-ya" is super cool!!

Teddy launches auditions for new label, looking for the 'second Big Bang'?

Article: 'Looking for the 2nd Big Bang'... 'YG Producer' Teddy launches auditions 
Source: TV Report via Naver

1. [+67, -2]  Why's there so many "second Big Bang"s

2. [+73, -8]  There will never be a 'second Big Bang' or 'little Big Bang'

3. [+51, -4]  Big Bang's still the one top

4. [+34, 0]  Big Bang is Big Bang.  Don't go looking for the second Big Bang and instead look for the 'first' someone else.

5. [+30, 0]  The second Big Bang?  Well, people have to find and cultivate their own paths for it to be possible for them to become like Big Bang.  It's not something you can just imitate.

6. [+10, 0]  You can't even stick the label of 'second Big Bang' on Winner or iKON because they each have their own individuality.  You shouldn't try to make the 2nd Big Bang but make the first of a new group.

7. [+4, 0]  Um there's no second Big Bang.  There's no other group who will surpass the records that Big Bang has set for 10 years starting from the very bottom to where they are now.  Big Bang is Big Bang.  Let's stop finding the '2nd' whatever for everything.

8. [+27, -8]  I applied as a vocal.  Cheer me on so I can last~ aja aja!!!

[3] He says it as if he's opened his treasure box or something

[4] When have you ever?????????

[5] It might not even be a joke.....this is Yang Hyun Suk we're talking about

[6] He's really "immature" (tn: Title of one of Winner's new songs)

[7] Don't pretend like you always release albums anyway!!!!!!

[8] Don't joke around like that, I'm freaking sensitive about this stuff!

[9] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋI got goosebumps

[10] Haha............why are you scaring us like this ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ  Stop

[11] (Grabs him by the collar)

[12] ........goosebumps....... since he's the type that'll actually do just that

[13] When I heard this on broadcast I got goosebumps all over my body

[14] What's he saying?  Isn't that what he usually does anyway?

[15] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ YG fans, stay strong

[1] I think other companies received something from them too.  Looks like Coca-cola's putting in work these dyas

1. [+1675, -57]  Saw that SM won 4 awards and was wondering if YG didn't win any since there was no mention of it...but they won 9, dang

1. [+21, 0]  Trustworthy Lee Junki.  Hope this piece of work will be really fun and great.

2. [+20, 0]  One of the best Korean entertainment companies along with NBC Universal and as a re-make of a classic Chinese series, looks like this will be amazing ㄷㄷㄷ ㅎㅎ

[Instiz] YG's cosmetic line 'Moonshot' too expensive?

Examples:

~$50 USD 4-piece brush set 

$20~30 USD ea. (1) brush

$30 2-shade blush

$30-40 Foundation, concealer

$20+ Eyeliner, mascara, brow gel

(tn: Requested, trending Instiz post 7 days before G-Dragon and Sandara Park were announced to model for the brand.)

Post: YG's cosmetic line 'Moonshot' average price range
Source: Instiz

[1] The quality doesn't match the price... with that money, just buy from Innisfree, Nature Republic, or The Face Shop

[2] Hul.... 20,500 won for 7.5 ml of product...

[3] Just one brush is 30 bucks.......

[4] First time I've heard of it, why is it so expensive though?

[5] I don't play around with a lot of make-up brands so at first I thought this was kind of cheap.

[6] Isn't that an alright price to ask for?  The quality's not that bad either

[7] A lot of people would just go for a cheaper alternative unless the quality was amazing enough to warrant the price

[8] The prices are reasonable.  It's their promotion of the brand that sucks... they should tackle it head strong ㅜ To at least make people curious and want to buy it ㅜ

[9] Their products are nice but for me the price is too high that once you run out, you don't really feel like buying it again

[10] The price is okay and the quality's okay but it doesn't have anything that makes you want to come back

[11] I saw Ssin using this once  ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[12] The price isn't that expensive.  I just wish they had a bigger variety of shades....... Moonshot doesn't get promoted well so there isn't a big selling point.  Right now, not a lot of people are actively going out to buy it but will just probably use it if received as a gift

Kang Dongwon joins YG Entertainment

Source: OSEN via Naver

1. [+4959, -90] Hul ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He really signed with them

2. [+4116, -127]  YG's got Big Bang to PSY and now Kang Dongwon ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is daebak

3. [+2390, -84]  Daebak....... Hul

4. [+2400, -135]  ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Yang Goon's got it all

5. [+1546, -61] Hul daebak ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+683, -17]  Hyunsuk's scored a diamond in his treasure box ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Just don't let this gem go to waste

7. [+597, -11]  Kang Dongwon isn't some rookie, he's a big shot.  I'm sure YG will treat him very well so I don't think there's any reason to be worried.  Let's not meddle and just let Kang Dongwon do what he wants to do

8. [+483, -8]  From Cha Seungwon and Choi Jiwoo to Kang Dongwon ㅋㅋㅋㅋ The actors that have gone into YG are all doing well though ㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+469, -8]  Dae..bak!! ㅋㅋ Now that you mention it, he's the best visual among YG now ㅋㅋㅋ

10. [+394, -7]  What I'm jealous of is the kids from YG can freely enjoy the sight of Kang Dongwon nowㅋㅋㅋ

Source: Ilgan Sports via Naver

1. [+256, -6]  Yang Hyun Suk doesn't manage the actors department in YG.  Plus, they don't do package deals or force their actors to do things they don't want to do.  They're actually good at supporting the actors at whatever direction they want to take.  I hope they work well together and that both Kang Dongwon and YG become more successful from this.

2. [+205, -4]  Daebak  ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ

3. [+115, -2]  Please take care of his promotions!!  Kang Dongwon fighting♡♡

4. [+77, -4]  Kang Dongwon... I'm so freaking jealous

5. [+77, -6]  Yang CEO's daebak these daysㅋ
