▶ YG STYLE, [they] believe that they will be popular in North America as well...
Simon and Martina picked BIG BANG and 2NE1, under YG entertainment, as idols who would be able to become popular in North America.
"We visited the University of Toronto a while back, back in our home city (Toronto, Canada). Not only did we meet our fans, but also K-POP fans, as well. When we asked, 'do you like SNSD?' [they answered] 'YES!!', then asked 'do you like SHINee?' they yelled 'YES!!'. But when we asked 'do you like Big Bang?' everyone screamed 'KYAA-AH!', and we were shocked. Taeyang's already famous."
They believe that the 'YG style' will attract a lot of popularity in Europe and America, and playfully advised to check out the 'evidence' footage (video below) from their visit to Toronto University.

KYAA-AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~♪~ ♥♥♥♥♥
BigBang is internationally famous .. everyone knows that .. and i love how martina is always fangirling over TOP. XDD
never say no to Big Bang and 2ne1...they got talent :) that's why we love them... <3
i love eat your kimchi vids!! xD simon and martina are awesome!!
No doubt.. with all those US responses from MTV, from American BJs and VIPs and even foreign artists.. YG should consider a US debut for the two.. PRONTO!!
Our boys have fans all arouind the world, from the smallest to the largest country and we want to have the pleasure of seeing them :)
YG is definitely something to fall in love with everywhere. BIGBANG and 2NE1 sing wonderfully, and they have good aspects as people. YG needs to come to the US ASAP!
I GET THE KYAA-AH!!!!! RESPONSE EVERYWHERE WHEN I ASKED DEM ABT 2NE1 & BIG BANG!! DIS IS INSANE COZ IMMA CRAZY OVER DEM!!!
Yes, Simon and Martina are awesome! I'd love to find a husband like Simon who loves K-Pop. hehe. And of course Big Bang and 2NE1 will become famous in North America, if not famous already. However, I don't think they should debut there. I mean, part of the charm of a K-Pop group is that they are not easily accessible to the rest of the world. That feeling of wanting to see them in person grows greater when one knows that there might not be a chance of really seeing them. I think that's why fans are more loyal and the fandom lasts longer unlike those artists who are accessible to all of the world. They should just do concerts and the like but not actually debut because if they do, the concerts and shows will be valued more than that of the artist who always do a concert. I don't know. It's just my opinion.
WOOT!! Simon and Martina are AWESOME!!!
And fans already know that Martina is a super fangirl for TOP... tee hee hee *rave music + lots of jumping across a field of snow*
BIG BANG.. COME TO CANADA ALREADY!!!
When we asked, 'do you like SNSD?' [they answered] 'YES!!', then asked 'do you like SHINee?' they yelled 'YES!!'. But when we asked 'do you like Big Bang?' everyone screamed 'KYAA-AH!'\(≧▽≦)/
BIGBANG! KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
love how they're big fans of YG artists. surprised that they're surprised Big Bang's big in Canada though.
Taeyang Jjang ♡♡
wow my taeyang...
The YG fever is hitting worldwide... :D
SO PROUD OF THE BOYS! ^.^
OMYGOD!!!! My favorite bloggers are here~~!!!!
Martina is HEAD-OVER-HEELS with TOP
Simon is a 2ne1 fanboy..
and Spudgy (their cute dog) can breakdance Minzy style~
though they appreciate YG talents~ I really wouldn't call them bias. They can be very critical about some songs that they don't like and videos that doesn't make sense to them.
And I've really discovered some awesome songs from other Kpop artist because of this couple that's why I LOVE THEM!!
check them out VIPs!!.. eatyourkimchi.com
hahahaha Martina is so obsessed with TOP! :) like any other typical fangirl
They even received concert tickets and a thank you note from YG!!! Omg i wish i was them!
they DID win WORLD wide act :D so proud of them!
WE NEED BIG SHOW WORLD TOUR 2012!
let's hope they'll grant our wishes guys :)
love their site. So jealous that they got tickets!

The music of BIGBANG is very beautiful.
And a cool!!!
I hope BIGBANG FAN increases all over the world. (^^♪
The reaction for Big Bang :D Goddamn YG have a world tour already!!!
Taeyang's already famous. TORONTO KNOWS WHO IS BEST
BigBang is already being well known in America. I went to the Kpop Masters concert in Las Vegas and when BigBang's picture popped up the crowd went CRAZY!!! Loudest cheers i would say :D
I'm so touched that YG sent them tickets!! I was hoping really hard that Simon and Martina would get to go xD
love their comment ^^ YG STYLE is really different from the others and that's why i'm attracted to them too :D
I knew it !!!
YG style is the best^^ evreything under this label become a hot trend :)Taeyang's alreadi ruled since Wedding Dress :x
and for this they got free tickets for the YG Fam Con.very lucky guys, while the rest have to scramble to secure a ticket =)
YG sent them a thank you + tickets to YG family concerts <3 kyaaaa~~ BIGBANG rules <3
I seriously doubt they would become huge in America... Not because they aren't worthy... THEY ARE!! But because America is so prejudiced... The music industry is ALWAYS dominated by whites... And blacks... But never anything else.... No Hispanics ... And god forbid any Asians... It's sad but true....
how did everybody know that yg gave them tickets?? please tell me i wanna know T.T
Yes!! I saw the video!! :) They have a video of this event :) Their fanmeet in Toronto~ I was really glad that out of all the groups Simon and Martina mentioned, when they said Bigbang.. Many many people screamed :) haha! It was ozm <3
Martina is a huge TOP fangirl! XD
They (Simon & Martina) posted a picture of their tickets on their Tumblr page.
I love Simon&Martina, and I love them even more because they love BIGBANG!!!!! :D YG is seriously like the most talented agency out there <3
There have been Hispanics who have been chart toppers in the States. Shakira, Daddy Yankee, Ricky Martin, J.Lo, Pitbull, those Disney star girls, the list goes on....and it's possible for Asians if they have what it takes. Far East Movement worked hard over the years and it paid off, have we forgotten about Like a G6? The trick to America is you aren't going to be huge over night, even Gaga who people treat like she's the second coming of John Lennon had to work hard underground for years. You can't just come here promote for 2 months and expect to go straight to #1, leave for 10 months and expect to still be popular when you comeback. It is a constant grind to make it and stay relevant in America.
love simon and martina as they love big bang, especially martina, cos top is her bias, like me XD
Simon and Martina have helped me discover so much good music, including Big Bang. Too bad I'm the only one in my surroundings thinking so... :/
@eatyourkimchi tweeted "YG really liked our article about them yesterday and sent us a thank you :D" http://pic.twitter.com/dF2LtTuG
THEY GOT TICKETS TO YG FAMILY CONCERT!? so jealous... they've even interviewed a lot of other k-pop artists. oh dear god, why, why do I have to be an unfamous EU citizen and not live in, hmm well let's say, like SOUTH KOREA!? lol excuse me :D
I agree with you 100% procent. Thanks for putting my thoughts into words.
M&S. I just visited their blog. Cute! Let's just say they just gained a follower:).
YG liked their interview so much that they sent them a thank you package, and of course, IT WAS THE YG FAMILY CONCERT TICKETS!!! *dies*
This is completely true, my friend is a Taeyang fan, and she wasn't even aware of Korean pop at all. She saw him at a Alicia Keys concert. She knew he was in a band, but she never knew much about the band. Luckily, I introduced her to ALL members of BB, and now she is in love. :]
Pitt Bull, 'nuff said.
which upload is this from?
haha it's so true that Toronto loves BB like no other. I often come across ppl who are quite tame with their love for kpop in general, but when it comes down to BB, they just have so much to talk about. Even if they may not like an individual in the group they ALWAYS give credit to the fact that Big Bang is without a doubt talented. such things just bring a smile to my face!
BIGBANG is always the best! WHOOOOO!
lol Simon and Martina are YG bias too XD
The fans went crazy when they said Big Bang ^_^
I know Simon and Martina loves YG, and Martina loves TOP remember that video where she was like "5 ft from TOP' "1 foot' 'no feet' lool
