[News] "Entertainment Relay", broadcast that was made for answers they want to hear

 
 
Several articles on the "Entertainment Relay" controversy were posted already but here is a commentary piece from 10Asia about the recent broadcast. 10Asia is famous for its fair articles and straight-to-the-point commentary.

SHORT SUMMARY
The broadcast was aired with Reese Witherspoon's interview, DJ DOC's court details and Block B's apology. It was followed by "BIGBANG's comeback timing controversy". The BIGBANG special was separated from all the other issues in the broadcast. It was argued that BIGBANG's comeback was too soon because of couple of members being involved in different incidents. The broadcast pointed out that G-Dragon's and Daesung's incidents still have few suspicions and doubts that are not yet clearly sorted out.

[Update] T.O.P not going to Circle NYC

This information was taken via BigBangUpdates

Thanks a lot for the information..

From Kristin @ americankpopfans.com: We received a tip that although Circle club in New York had promoted an event that would feature T.O.P. of Big Bang, he never actually agreed to appear there in the first place. The owners basically heard that he would be in town and used that information to bring in a huge number of people to their establishment. When the club-goers got there, they were told that T.O.P. backed out at the last minute, which he didn’t.

That time of year is finally here for Circle NYC! Our Labor Day Weekend White Party is back bigger than ever! Word on the street is that Kpop star T.O.P from BIGBANG will be making a special guest appearance on Friday and Saturday night and we can confirm that the rumors are true! T.O.P will be partying it up here at Circle NYC Friday and Saturday night at NYC Hottest Korean night club! We believe it’s going to be one of circle’s hottest weekends of the year so don’t miss out! Reservations have been going so fast that we will also be opening up pulse karaoke lounge for our circle customers!

Ladies free till mid night // ladies open bar till 11pm. For reservations and all other inquiries please contact info@thecirclenyc.com or 212-575-4779

[News] The Autopsy begins


Big Bang’s member Daesung (22, legal name: Kang Daesung) related to a fatal car accident. The police begins the autopsy on victim Hyun (30). Seoul Youngdeaungpo police stated that “the autopsy began at 9 AM and the result will take about 15 days.”

The autopsy will focus on when exactly Hyun died, on or before Daesung’s car crash. The police will also find out “whether or not there was another accident before Daesung and whether or not Hyun was dead before Daesung came.” The investigation will continue to find where the motorcyclist came from and will analyze the deceased’s blood.

Daesung will probably not be called for a second questioning because he was cooperative enough for all info needed on the first questioning, but if a second is necessary, “it will be done in private.”

Daesung hit a bleeding motorcyclist on the ground then a taxi with his Audi last 31st at 1:28 AM. The motorcyclist died on the spot. Daesung was questioned for five hours right after the accident and was sent home around 7AM that morning.

[NEWS] YG’s second statement, police still unsure whether Daesung was speeding



On May 31st, a YG Entertainment representative stated,
“The taxi driver who was rear-ended by Daesung has said that Daesung had not been driving that fast; he said that he felt he had driven at about 60 km/h. Although Daesung was the one who told the authorities that he was driving at 80 km/h, this was said while he was in a state of great shock and confusion.”
The site of the accident is on a downhill slope – isn’t it normal for most drivers to not have their foot on the accelerator while driving downhill? Therefore, in order to find at what speed Daesung was driving at, there must be an on-site investigation.“
Previously, the Seoul Youngdeung-Po Police Department stated,
“Daesung violated the rules for safe driving by not being able to see in front of him while driving at 80 km/h. If Daesung had in fact been driving at 80 km/h (where the speed limit was 60 km/h), it would be considered to be a speed limit violation. However, because that figure was part of Daesung’s testimony, in order to find out exactly how fast he was going, more investigation needs to be done.“
Meanwhile, the police are examining the accident in great detail, combing through certain facts like how the motorcyclist was already bleeding before Daesung’s accident, leading to a theory of a possible prior hit-and-run. According to the police, Daesung seemed to have not seen the motorcyclist because he was scrambling to brake when he saw the stopped taxi in front of him.

It’s been revealed that Daesung hadn’t been driving under the influence and that the taxi driver did not sustain any major injuries. After the accident, Daesung and the taxi driver underwent five hours of investigation by the authorities before returning home.

At the police station, Daesung said, “There was one car behind the taxi in the first lane. When both cars suddenly moved to the second lane, I couldn’t avoid hitting the taxi that had returned to the first lane to stop.”

The police revealed, “We plan to find the cause of the motorcyclist’s death. In order to determine if the motorcyclist had died due to Daesung’s car, we had requested a detailed analysis from the National Institute of Scientific Investigation and have obtained the CCTV footage from the area. We plan to investigate this scientifically.”

It appears that results of the motorcycle analysis will take up to 7-10 days.

Daesung has received much shock due to this accident. A YG representative revealed, ”After finishing the police investigation at 7AM, Daesung has returned to his dorm with his manager.”
YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun Suk said, “We will continue to follow the results that the police investigations reveal regarding the accident. Currently, Daesung’s distress is not due to his mistake, but due to his sorrow for the motorcyclist who died due to an accident.”
