YG Entertainment's rookie survival program 'WIN' is getting a lot of attention, especially as two teams are battling it out to see which group will come out the winner. While Team A is being coached by Big Bang's Taeyang, Team B is being coached by Big Bang's G-Dragon.
The two teams' first battle was broadcast on September 27. Although G-Dragon had revealed some doubts as to whether he would win because he had always lost to Taeyang during their training battle days, his worries proved unfounded! That's right. G-Dragon's Team B won the first battle against Taeyang's Team A!
YG Entertainment's CEO, Yang Hyun Suk, said, "It's not that Team A did badly. The thing that struck out the most was their fear of the competition. You must never be scared of your opponents."
It turned out 2NE1's CL was there to give her advice, as well. She supportively told Team A's leader Song Min Ho, "If your team performed on stage, but it wasn't great, it is your responsibility [as the leader]. No matter what, you must pull them forward."
After three battles within a ten week period, the winning team will debut as the first YG idol boy group in eight years since Big Bang. Their set group name WINNER will definitely suit them considering the tough, competitive circumstances that brought them there.
