Epik High and Taeyang brought back memories of their YG Entertainment days, sharing unfiltered stories that left fans in stitches.
On the 14th, Taeyang appeared as a guest on Epik High’s official channel. The former colleagues bonded over the stress and funny episodes they experienced while working under the same agency.
The highlight of the conversation was the “fact bombing” comments producer Yang Hyun Suk once gave Epik High. Tablo recalled the struggles of recording, admitting, “I had many reasons to drink when I was at YG.” He remembered the constant nagging and requests for revisions, such as “this song lacks energy” and “make this part explode.”
Adding to the fun, Tooky did an impression of Yang Hyun Suk, noting that he often said, “I hate losers.” This led Tablo to reveal a behind-the-scenes story about BIGBANG’s hit song “LOSER.” According to Tablo, Yang Hyun Suk gave them a blunt analysis: “If you guys sing ‘LOSER,’ people will believe you’re real losers, but if BIGBANG does it, it’s cool.” Tablo joked, “I wanted to argue back at the time, but I felt there was some truth to it, so I just agreed,” sending the set into laughter.
Fans’ most anticipated news, BIGBANG’s comeback, was also mentioned. Taeyang shared that he is currently working on an album, though the title track has not yet been decided. He even tried calling G-Dragon (GD) live, and GD revealed he is “still working.” When asked about the comeback timing, GD mentioned their debut anniversary, hinting that something might happen around that time.
Tablo also continued the “diss battle,” jokingly complaining about the hate comments he received after Taeyang posted a shirtless photo on his account. However, by the end of the show, Epik High showed their sincere support, praising Taeyang’s perfectionist approach to music.
