BIGBANG and EXO to Attend the 5th Gaon K-Pop Awards
by: notclaira @ Soompi
Representative K-pop groups BIGBANG and EXO have been confirmed to be attending the 5th Gaon K-Pop Awards on February 17, 2016.
The Gaon K-Pop Awards is held every year by Gaon, a national music record chart in South Korea, to commemorate the top artists in the domestic music scene in the previous year. Awards are given to the top artists for every month of the year (based on digital song sales) and every quarter (based on album sales).
BIGBANG made their five-member comeback in 2015 after a long hiatus, releasing a new single every month from May to August as part of their “MADE” album series. They are currently in the middle of their highly successful world tour.
EXO also had a strong showing in album sales this year, releasing their second full-length album “EXODUS,” the repackaged version “Love Me Right,” and the special winter album “Sing For You.”
Both groups are expected to perform at the ceremony at the Seoul Student Gymnasium on February 17, 2016.

Taeyeon Confirmed to Attend 5th Gaon K-Pop Awards
by: an0ya @ Soompi
Girls’ Generation‘s Taeyeon has joined the growing list of top artists attending the 5th Gaon K-pop Awards held in February.
According to local news outlet Star News, she has been confirmed to attend the awards show.
Many are wondering what kind of appearance she will make at the annual event. Back in 2012, she hosted the first-ever Gaon K-pop Awards together with composer Joo Young Hoon.
This past year has been a particularly busy one for Taeyeon. Following the lengthy promotions for Girls’ Generation’s fifth studio album, she soon followed up with her anticipated first solo album and enjoyed great success with the title track “I.” And just a couple of weeks ago, she returned to the stage with the release of TaeTiSeo‘s new holiday album.
Meanwhile, previously announced attendees include male groups EXO, BIGBANG, and BTS.
