Not Fair

I can't believe it, Big Bang will be having a fanmeet in Tokyo Dome! I mean, its their like first official debut with a japanese single and it's a bit too fast. What would they have to achieve in the future. LOL, with my exclamtion mark, I sound like a BigBang fan but I'm not. I'm not happy for them.

Tohoshinki worked that hard to open up the pathway for Korean Artists breaking into the Japanese music market and now others are having a free ride. It's common and all that but its a bit asdfghjkllmnvbc, what effort have the bigbang dudes put into achieving their TD fanmeet compared to the toho boys.

When I watched the video on Channel A about the boys' road to Dome, I'm truly touched, they worked so hard, suffered so much emotionally being in a country where no one has any idea who they are and they themselves also are not familiar with the place.

If BigBang goes to Kouhaku this year, I'll seriously be like adfhjkjkll;loytrewwdvsnko, because it's not fair.

Sorry to any BigBang fans who happen to read this post then. You may say that "Who says life is ever fair?" "Big Bang worked for it"

Meh, whatever, that's just my opinion on the issue.

Life is never fair anyway~

Wow! Don't you think you're being a bit self-righteous about the whole thing? I mean seriously, Tohoshinki didn't open the way for Korean artists to succeed, BoA did and she deserves all the credit. Its not like Tohoshinki is the first Korean group to debut in Japan and try to make it. The only reason they met with such hardship is because they completely modified their style to directly compete with the Johnny's rather than be themselves. So what if Big Bang takes a different route. I'd rather if they didn't become sell-outs like Tohoshinki and release a million singles with only a couple of hits. You're acting like there's only one road to success. Well, guess what? There isn't. Welcome to the real world.

Oh, and FYI, its a fan meeting/debut party in ONE of the Tokyo Dome halls that seats a smaller venue. Its not the same concert area where DBSK is holding their show.

Because you know, the Tokyo Dome serves more than one purpose and its a business that offers services to customers. Meetings, parties and other events can also be held there, but I guess that you forgot about that.

To be quite frank, Big Bang is trying to make a name for themselves with their music and their "name". They're not selling out like Tohoshinki, becoming some JE boyband clone, and changing their music just to fit in.

Hip-hop and R&B is in no way popular in Japan, and Big Bang's image is completely different, but they're going to be true to themselves and make an effort to be recognized for who they are. That's infinitely MORE than Tohoshinki ever tried to accomplish.

You should be happy for them, but instead, you choose to demean them and your fanclub by being jealous and bitter.

Grow up.

They aren’t taking any short cuts, so there's no use whining.
