HugeBoi Minos Wife 40,568 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Big Bang is truly the nation's bg so it's no surprise the public knows each member. Their public recognition is just unrivaled among bg, they're simply a WALL. Winner tho...they've been working hard building up their public recognition as a group and solos and I'm so happy it's paying off. Good to see the older generation knows who they are and can name most of the members by name. SLAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeoksi_xo 844 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Kyungsoo getting that actor recognition omg. I've often seen non-fans/muggles say they know Kyungsoo but don't know he's in EXO/is an idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

remembering 7,109 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 It's not GD but Jiyong-ie. I've seen I-VIPs say this alot from older people when they visit Korea but it's weird that they call GD Jiyong-ie rather than by his stage name.

boredpanda18 936 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Big bang's on another level when it comes to public recognition of each member. But lol, those parents who knows D.O. from his acting roles and that one who called him a well shaved chestnut are cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oceangreen 1,195 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 It's not GD but Jiyong-ie. I've seen I-VIPs say this alot from older people when they visit Korea but it's weird that they call GD Jiyong-ie rather than by his stage name. Maybe because they’ve known/watched him since he was just a little Kwon Jiyong performing on tv? It’s endearing to hear them calling him that way though...
