Group Big Bang is finally returning. Marking their 20th anniversary since debut, they have hinted at the "return of the kings" through a Coachella stage in the United States, and members have been directly spoiling rehearsal scenes, sending expectations among music fans around the world through the roof.
Big Bang will take the main stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival (Coachella) in Indio, California, U.S., the world's largest music festival, on the 12th and 19th and is expected to prove their overwhelming presence. The members traveled to the United States on the 3rd and 4th.
On the 9th, a few days before the Coachella performance, Taeyang raised fans' heart rates by posting multiple photos on his social media without any comment. The released photos showed Taeyang deep in Coachella rehearsals, a Big Bang logo clearly displayed on a monitor, and name tags with the members' names, evoking strong emotion.
Earlier, G-Dragon also attracted attention on the 21st of last month by revealing a rear view of him checking choreography in a large rehearsal room with the short comment "in agony." A ticket image with the phrase 'BIGBANG DESERT LIVE BACKSTAGE' appeared in the center of the photo, and the background LED prominently displayed 'COACHELLALALA,' suggesting intensive rehearsals for Coachella were underway.
On the 8th, the Big Bang official YouTube channel unexpectedly released a Coachella teaser video showing the Big Bang logo on a red flag waving against a desert backdrop, raising the excitement of global fans who had been waiting for the comeback to a peak.
This Coachella performance is significant as the glamorous prologue to Big Bang's 20th anniversary activities and as the first button of a large-scale project in which they reunite with their home company, YG Entertainment.
YG Entertainment recently formalized Big Bang's resumption of activities through its official blog. Yang Hyun-suk, the executive producer, said, "We have agreed to hold a concert with the Big Bang members," adding, "We have worked together for a long time, so I think there will be no difficulties. All YG staff will do their best to create a perfect and excellent performance," displaying strong "YG familysip."
In particular, YG spared no support to ensure that G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung could fully use the group name "Big Bang" on the Coachella stage.
Breaking a long hiatus and finally putting full throttle into their 20th anniversary activities, Big Bang's performance at Coachella will be watched closely to see what kind of catharsis they will deliver to excite the world.
