Happy Birthday Young Bae!

Thanks for the translations! All his struggles made him a stronger person and very passionate in his music. I'm glad that he has overcome all his sad days and is ready to shine again on-stage! I can't wait for your album! Good luck!

VIPs, don't forget to trend #happyBAEday today!

[rectitude*]

It's sad that he grew up not living with his parents at a young age. =_= But then he had music, it's no wonder that he's so passionate about his career. He really devoted his life to music and he's showing us such a wonderful side of him as a singer & person, plus his music is love ♥ I'm really hoping for his album to be release soon so we can all hear his wonderful music again <3

[star diary, Part 2] "On my 12th birthday, my present for myself is…"

Taeyang (23,·real name Dong Young Bae) has liked music ever since he was little. But, being raised at a relative’s home, he was sent to an acting academy. "It was probably because acting academies were booming in those days. My cousins were also going to acting academies, so I went together with them. But that wasn’t what I wanted"

Although he never cared for the acting academy, it was because of this he got the opportunity to become a singer. It was during his time at the acting academy, he was able to appear in Jinusean’s music video as ‘little Sean’.

"The acting academy allowed me to participate in auditions. I was often an extra at that time. However, accidentally, YG was looking for someone to take in Jinusean’s music video, I had the audition and got picked as ‘little Sean’".

He met Yang Hyun Suk, the representative of YG entertainment, while working as ‘little Sean’. For little 12-year-old Taeyang’s eyes, Jinusean and representative YG couldn’t look greater.

"[Their]Music and clothing looked very nice. I thought ‘I must get into this company, even if I’m just here to be in a music video’".

Being ‘little Sean’, he did music programs with Jinusean. Finally, on the day of the last broadcasting, little Taeyang poured his heart out and said he wanted to join YG and rep. Yang said that he can do so.

“President Yang Hyun Suk said he would call me to come later. It may have just been some words to make me feel good because I was a cute looking boy, and thats why I misunderstood."

He waited for months, but the phone call didn’t come. Eventually, Taeyang gallantly walked into YG’s office on his birthday and he went straight to the president’s office.

"Why didn’t you call me" (Taeyang)

"…I forgot. Come and train starting tomorrow."(Yang Hyun Suk)

Taeyang gave himself the present of ‘entering into YG’. And so, his sad and happy trainee life began.

Wedding Dress MV to be screened at SSFF 2010

The SSFF (Short Shorts Film Festival and Asia) 2010 will be held next month in Japan and will feature music videos from South Korea.

The Korean music videos that will be screened during the festival include Wonder Girl's Nobody, SNSD's Tell Me Your Wish, Big Bang Taeyang's Wedding Dress and Hallyu Star Park Hyo Shin's After Love.

Short Description of Wedding Dress from the Official Website:

The woman you love is marrying another man. On top of that, you have to sing the song to congratulate them at their wedding. The story flows between the dramatic scenes that expose the heartbreak felt and SOL's expressive dance scenes in a studio. The contrast of the white backdrop in the dramatic scenes and the black of the dance studio give the film a distinctive visual quality..
