YG's 2025 Plans (2NE1, BLACKPINK, WINNER, AKMU, BABYMONSTER, TREASURE, and a New Group)

Q: What are YG's plans for next year?

A: There isn't a specific plan to announce for next year, but it seems like a lot of artists will be active simultaneously. BLACKPINK will be having their highly anticipated comeback, and they will also be starting their world tour next year. BABY MONSTER and TREASURE will begin their world tours as well. At the end of December this year, WINNER's Song Mino and Kang Seungyoon will be discharged from the military service. AKMU is also planned to have activities, and 2NE1 will continue their global tour into next year. We also have a new group named 'NEXT MONSTER' waiting to be introduced. We look forward to introducing these new artists to the fans.

We'll have to see how many of these plans actually come true.

-I don’t believe it.

-Well, talk is cheap...

-Even if it's a temporary name, 'NEXT MONSTER' sounds terrible...

-Been disappointed too many times, I don’t believe it.

-Let’s just focus on TREASURE's domestic activities...

-It’s all liesㅋㅋㅋㅋ He never keeps his promises.

-Since the stock price is at its lowest, they’re making plans.

-Wasn’t 2NE1’s contract already over??

Korean Dramas are Ruining Korean Women

"But I think the media has a huge influence. If you watch TV, you see men who are perfect to their wives. I always say that Korean dramas are ruining Korean women. Recently, I watched a drama called 'Lovely Runner', and although I enjoyed it, I was really dumbfounded... Where is such a man in reality? A superstar runs to his girlfriend whenever he has time. Where does he find the time for that?"

A couple therapist/psychological counseling expert thinks the media has a huge influence in shaping women's perspective that a good man is one who makes a lot of money, contacts them frequently, and takes care of them. If there's only one flaw, they consider him a bad man.

-Dramas actually help with marriage because they make people dream of romance and happy endings that don’t exist in reality. You really don't know anything.

-???? What are you talking about? Without dramas, how would we even have any fantasies about romance?

-Why would we want to see real men in dramas?

-Yeah, the drama is the problem. They should make it more realistic: hidden cameras, dating violence, split bills, not meeting the bare minimum, stabbing, stalking~

-Do they think women are stupid and can’t distinguish between dramas and reality?

-Let’s make a drama about a woman catching an incurable STD from her boyfriend then.

-Is there a reason why we should lower our standards?

-We know there aren’t men like that in reality, that’s why we watch dramas for satisfaction. 

-That’s why it’s called a drama.

-Why should I live with a man who doesn't even do that much? I'd rather live alone.

-If you want to see realistic men, why watch dramas?

-It’s porn that's ruining Korean men.

-Isn’t it right to marry someone who earns well, contacts you often, and is kind? Why should you marry someone who isn’t like that?

-That’s exactly why people watch dramas.

-Why would anyone watch dramas if they were realistic?

-It's been known for months that the marriage was already broken. Why does it matter?

-Everyone knows the marriage is over, so why does it matter if the ruling is out or not? She can date whoever she wants.

-I hope she meets a good person.

-As long as she's happy, that's all that matters.

-So what... What kind of headline is that?

-Isn't Hwang Jungeum single? What's the issue?

-The whole nation knows her marriage is over already.

-What's the issue? Hwang Jungeum should date a good person and be happy.

-Ugh, just leave her alone.

-I'm surprised she still wants to date.

-I'm curious who it is... I hope it's a good person. 

-If it's true, then it's something to celebrate.

-If the rumors are true, it means that she's dating a guy who is 7 years younger than her...
