Big Bang: Alive around the world


My boys are back. B to the I, to the G, Bang2x! Yes Kpop fans and fellow VIP's, Bigbang is back! Though  not on a new album (let's give them a break first after their worldwide tour), the 2012  +Mnet Asian Music Awards winner for Artist of the Year is once again back on our tv screens.

YG Entertainment's boy band, +BIGBANG , set sail outside Korea with the mission if not to conquer the world of music, bring KPop music to its fans around the world. The worldwide concert called +Big Bang Alive Tour 2012 was arranged to promote their third studio album, Alive. In partnership with Live Nation, hiring VMA-winning choreographer and Emmy-nominated director Laurieann Gibson as their tour director and choreographer, and lastly, teaming up with Samsung as its official sponsor marked the first time the group has ever done a worldwide concert tour. While most first time encounters are primarily designed to test the waters - Big Bang totally killed it!



From Korea to Japan, to USA and to England, to Philippines and back to Korea for their finale, 'Alive tour' received positive remarks from people all over the world. With estimated attendance of 800,000 and numerous records set including a London record for the largest record of crowd gathered to see a Korean act in England.

+MTV  takes us to the lives of Daesung, Taeyang, Seungri, T.O.P, and G Dragon on a successful world tour that transpired at 24 cities in 12 different countries.
