Along with unconventional decision that all of YG Family will attend this festival that is going to take place on August 15th, YG Entertainment plans to present an experience that the audiences will remember for a long time as the best artist group in Korea by presenting the performance that contains music philosophy and so on.
YG Family is getting the interests from the whole world with the unique style of the artists and powerful music. Psy dominated pop market in America and also the whole world with ‘Gangnam Style’ sensation and BIGBANG is continuing their unbeatable moves by leading the trend along with the world tour that gathered 800,000 audiences in 24 cities of 12 countries for total of 48 sets. 2NE1 recorded 61st place on Billboard album chart with the new album ‘CRUSH’, which is the best record ever in the history of K-Pop and WINNER is getting the love calls from the fans around the world even before the debut by appearing on TV survival program and so on and the best musicians who transcends different generations will go up on the stage.

Lady Gaga’s last world tour recorded more than 4,000,000 tickets sold worldwide and the first concert in Korea in 2012 recorded the sold out record as the performance of a foreign artist in the main stadium for the first time and has a case of creating lots of issues by being chosen as the performance that is 1st place in terms of ticket sales in that particular year and so on.

Oh wow! YG Family will be headlining this on the 15th and Lady Gaga on the 16th! According to the Facebook page, more artists will be added.. I wonder who else are coming? This is going to be awesome! ❤ I’m not sure, if this is a YG Fam Con, per se, because they’ll be sharing the stage with other arists, but I’m psyched about this because imaging just how excited the girls will be knowing Lady Gaga will be on the same festival as them! ❤

Oh! Nicola Formichetti said that he might be working with 2NE1 in the future! What do you guys think about that?
There is a man responsible for dressing mega popstar Lady Gaga in her famous meat dress. He has never studied fashion design, but currently in his early 30′s, he has now become the head of a luxury brand. He is none other than French Fashion House MUGLER‘s creative director and Lady Gaga’s stylist, Nicola Formichetti. During a recent interview, Formichetti admitted to being a fan of K-Pop.
Formichetti is half Asian with a Japanese mother and an Italian father. When asked which side he feels closer to, he answered, “I was born in Shizuoka, Japan and grew up in Tokyo. I went to high school in Rome, and lived in London for ten years after that. I felt like an outsider growing up, but I think it’s helped me build an ability to blend different things. I look young for being 35, thanks to my Asian blood (laughs).”
The fashionista also admitted to being a huge fan of Korean pop music. “I am a huge fan of Big Bangand 2NE1. 2NE1 knows how to sing. Just this morning, I listened to 2NE1′s “Scream” and Big Bang’s ‘Fantastic Baby‘“, he said, revealing the tracks on his iPhone playlist. “This is a secret, but I may be working with 2NE1 in the future. There are a lot of Korean people that I know in Europe. I once did a show with designer Woo Young Mee in Paris a few years back. We had bibimbap (Korean mixed rice meal) together, and the spicy kick was the greatest. If I were ever invited to Seoul’s Fashion Week, I would love to go. I want to work on a new Lady Gaga outfit with Korean designers, and I also want to learn Korean.”
