In the viral video, Tablo from Epik High posed a thought-provoking question to Daesung: “Wasn’t BIGBANG also a cross between K-Pop and hip-hop?” Daesung responded candidly about the criticism BIGBANG faced within the idol industry, stating, “We were criticized a lot in the idol industry for that.”

In a surprising turn, Tukutz proposed a merger between the two groups, stating, “Just merge with us.” Daesung responded thoughtfully, “That could be better.” But when G-Dragon was mentioned, Tablo quipped, “If we tell G-Dragon about this, it’s out of the question. We’ll have no reason to meet him,” eliciting laughter from the group.
This playful exchange has not only entertained fans but has also sparked discussions about the blending of genres in the K-Pop and hip-hop arenas. The full episode is available on Daesung’s YouTube channel, drawing attention from fans eager to see the dynamic between these influential artists.
