ABOUT TAEYANG: 
TAEYANG is a South-Korean recording artist and one of the most reputable vocalists and performers of this century. 

He was the lead singer of BIGBANG, one of the most influential and decorated acts in the history of K-Pop and the first to gain global recognition, performing at stadiums across the world throughout the Americas, Asia and Europe for millions of fans. They are known for their trendsetting musical experimentation, self-production and record-breaking global success: winning over 100 awards, being on the New York Times’ “Best Concerts List”, and winning “Best Worldwide Act” at the MTV Europe Awards. Dubbed the “Kings of K-Pop”, BIGBANG is one of the best-selling boy bands of all time. 

TAEYANG was the first member of BIGBANG to step out from the group as a solo artist when releasing his critically acclaimed first album, “Hot” which won numerous awards including Best R&B/Soul Song and Album. His second album, “Solar”, occupied the #1 and #2 spots respectively on the Canadian and US iTunes R&B/Soul Album Chart. His third album “Rise” was released with the hit single “Eyes, Nose, Lips” having an unprecedented 5 week run at #1 on Korea’s biggest real-time music chart, subsequently winning “Song of the Year” on all major Korean award shows. Upon the release of his fourth album, “White Night” which went #1 on Billboard’s World Digital Albums, TAEYANG embarked on his second solo world tour which had stops in 19 cities around the world including North America. 

After 6 years, TAEYANG made his first solo comeback with “VIBE feat. Jimin of BTS” which instantly became a worldwide smash, becoming TAEYANG’s first entry into the Billboard Hot 100 at #76 and #9 on the Billboard Global Chart. 

As a live performer, The New York Times described TAEYANG as the member of BIGBANG, “who stood out the most”, as “he stalked the stage with ferocity and sang with real force.” The Straits Times has said “he is often crowned the dancing king of K-Pop.” 

His influence in fashion and the arts has led him to becoming the face of the 20th anniversary of Calvin Klein’s CK- One global campaign and he has also partnered with Fendi to to design an exclusive capsule collection called “Fendi for Taeyang”. In 2023, TAEYANG became the first male from Korea to be global ambassador for GIVENCHY. 

TAEYANG is serious about his craft, a living legend who will continue to evolve and stay true to his artistry.
