Article: Big Bang TOP confesses, "I spend over 95% of my income on buying art"

1. [+1,628, -222] Or if you flip what he said, it means that the 5% he has left is enough for him to live off of and do other things. Basically means he has a huge, huge income... and I bet he buys art in cash under the table. I hope he's being thoroughly investigated for his taxes.

2. [+966, -121] After watching them on 'Radio Star', I feel like Seungri's actually the normal one of the group. Taeyang > Seungri > Daesung > GD > TOP... Daesung seems a bit out of it too ㅋ The only difference between Seungri and Taeyang are whether they share what they're feeling or not ㅋ

3. [+563, -28] But art can be sold back at the same price so you can get all your money back..

4. [+91, -4] After watching 'Radio Star', TOP has the most unique personality of them all

5. [+77, -9] I remember on another show TOP said his hobby was buying plane tickets and not riding them;; stupid fangirls, wake up, this is your money he's toying with

6. [+74, -3] Being a celebrity is the best career ever. Normally only CEOs of large companies can have hobbies like collecting art but some 30 year old guy without any education or credentials at all can buy art like it's nothing..

7. [+65, -8] Buying art is usually a slush fund

8. [+62, -6] You can consider art like a savings account. You can sell it back exactly for what you got it for. It's like a form of investment. He's not wasting money by buying art as a hobby.

9. [+54, -1] To the rest of us, it might seem like he's just buying art to keep around, but to the rich, it's actually a form of investment.

10. [+50, -16] It's unfair that some are accusing TOP of using art as a form of tax evasion when his whole family has been involved in the arts and didn't even want him going into music at first ㅋㅋㅋ He's the nephew of one of the leaders of Korean abstract painting and his oldest aunt's husband is a pretty well known figure in the art world ㅋㅋ TOP designs his own furniture and participated in the Sotheby auction recently too

11. [+47, -16] Don't people usually buy art for tax evasion and slush funds?

12. [+36, -5] I honestly don't think TOP is smart enough to sell the paintings back to dodge taxes... ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He seems pretty simple, just collects art because he thinks it looks pretty/cool to him

13. [+34, -4] I spend 95% of my income on buying rice and kimchi

14. [+29, -4] It's hilarious to me how netizens think this guy is dodging taxes when he's already rich enough to buy any piece of art in the world ㅋㅋ

Mamamoo Hwasa's sexual performance?

Pann : Mamamoo Hwasa, isn't this too much? 1. [+140, -5] It looks more sexual because she has a good body. It was Mamamoo's concert and it was +15. 2. [+95, -15] This is why they say women's enemy is women. You call it sexy when male idols rip their clothes off and do pelvic dances but it's a problem when a female idol does it? It only looks sexy and pretty. 3. [+85, -1] It would be considered too much if this was done on broadcast but it was a +15 concert. It's fine. 4. [+35, -0] It's still better than female idols' lolita appeal nowadays 5. [+26, -0] It looks more like that because the dress color is nude. And like in foreign countries, adult sexiness is better than short school uniforms and lolita. 6. [+23, -0] You never bought an album and yet you're complaining about this and that 7. [+22, -1] It's a concert anyways. Other male idols wear more sexual clothes. 8. [+21, -26] It looks a bit off...

Rain recounts a story of when Park Jin Young went above and beyond for him

Article : Rain expresses gratitude towards Park Jin Young for dropping everything to be there for his mother "It's thanks to hyung that my mother got to live a few more weeks" Source : Insight via Instagram "When I was around 17-18 years old, my mother fell sick and I couldn't take her to the hospital because I didn't have any money. I asked several places for help but no one could offer it. I then asked Jin Young hyung, 'Hyung, please save us. I don't have any money to hospitalize my mother.' Jin Young hyung then canceled all of his schedules and came to my home. He put my mother on his back, got her a car, and took us to the hospital. He co-signed for us and got us in. It was thanks to him that I got to be with my mother for another two weeks." 1. [+528] Even when he's as rich enough to have 45 billion won now... I'm sure the 2-3 weeks he got to spend with his mother were more meaningful than anything else. And no wonder he feels so...

2017 starts off to another girl group rush with new debuts and comebacks

Article: 2017 starts off to another girl group rush Source: TV Report via Naver 1. [+208, -5] For how much name value AOA has, their digital rank has been lost in Andromeda..... not even comparable to Cosmic Girls or April anymore because I don't even see them on the Melon charts. What happened? Did AOA's fandom just die out? 2. [+130, -10] A battle of the minor groups, basically... 3. [+191, -31] Twice (nation's girl group, energetic, cute) Girlfriend (innocent) IOI (nation's producer) Red Velvet (quirky?) Black Pink (hip hop) Mamamoo (talent)... all of the current girl groups have different charms and styles with set fandoms so there really isn't any more room for other groups or fandoms 4. [+106, -10] Every new debut recently has been flop after flop... 5. [+120, -27] AOA, Cosmic Girls, and April all flopped ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 6. [+52, -5] Out of all those groups, AOA had the most media play and their one song already fell off the charts~ 7. [+51, -7] At the top are Twice, ...
