ARKPodcast - Episode 16: John Travolta Wannabe

 

2PM & 2NE1′s comeback in the same week, and more serious news for fans of YG family took precedence. Unfortunately, the free talk in this episode is quite serious and weighty. We also apologize for being late this week, but there was a typhoon in Manila that made recording on our usual day quite difficult.

Freetalk is a bit heavy again. This past week the police released a report stating that their conclusion is that Kang Daesung is responsibly for the death of Motorcyclist Hyun. Now of course, he still hasn’t been charged with any crime and it is possible that he will never have to serve jail time. However, this event will undoubtedly have a harsh effect on his mental state, and has already begun to. He’s been suspended from all of Big Bang’s activities until the end of the year, and we’re left to wait and see how Big Bang will be affected as a result.

Opening Song: Block B – Tell Them
Insert Song: Thelma Aoyama feat. 4Minute – Without U
Closing Song: Daesung – Baby Don’t Cry
