As most K-pop groups and artists are making their comebacks and debuts this year,like big names such as BIGBANG, EXO, SNSD, SHINee, SISTAR, AOA, 2PM, Seventeen and The Ark to name a few, the anticipation of Inner Circles (WINNER fans) and iKON‘s fans grow bigger and bigger as of this posting, YG Entertainment CEO, Yang Hyun Suk a.k.a. YG himself finally speaks out and clears the issue of the delays of these groups comeback and debut.
During one of his interviews with OSEN, YG addressed the concerns raised by most fans of both boy groups, “That’s not up to me. If they make good music that anyone can be happy listening to, I will let them show it off right away. But as of now, no work has come out that satisfies either me or them (iKON and WINNER).”
He also added that before BIGBANG actually debuted in 2006, they also experienced the same process of delays and hardships.
“In one of the recent broadcast programs, G-Dragon shared that when he wrote songs during their trainee days, it is as if they were their homework. If a singer is going to perform in public and sing, they must be prepared. If they carelessly produce songs in haste, the singer’s career will inevitably shorten. This is the reason why BIGBANG feels such pain when they release a new album,” said YG.
YG on that same interview shared the passion both WINNER and iKON pour out for giving the best for their fans.
“WINNER and iKON are both working very hard. In the past few months, they came to me and presented over 50 songs. I sent them (songs) all back. They (WINNER and iKON) will go through this process and grow through it. I am very sorry to all the fans that are waiting to witness them, but I can assure in confidence that the top of the mountain isn’t far away. When WINNER makes its comeback and iKON makes it debut, it will have been worth the entire wait, especially the sweat that they put in,” added YG.
Both WINNER and iKON are products of a reality survival program in Mnet. WINNER released their first full studio album, 2014 S/S in August 12, 2014.
