A heartwarming K-pop anecdote has emerged, showcasing the strong bond between two of K-Pop’s legendary groups. On October 31, 2025, a new video was released on Daesung’s YouTube channel, ‘Jipdaeseong’, featuring his former YG Entertainment labelmates, Tablo and Tukutz of Epik High. In the episode, titled “GD likes this video. Taeyang hates this video,” the artists looked back on their shared history, revealing a touching story of support from Big Bang.
A Nostalgic Reunion of YG Entertainment Alumni
The episode served as a delightful reunion for the former YG Entertainment artists. Daesung welcomed Tablo and Tukutz, and the conversation quickly turned to their memorable years together at the agency. The trio reminisced about past events and collaborations, offering fans a rare glimpse into the camaraderie that existed between the groups behind the scenes. This particular discussion highlighted the supportive environment fostered among artists at the label during that era.
The MAMA Incident: How Big Bang Boosted Epik High
The highlight of the conversation was a specific K-pop anecdote shared by Epik High Tablo and Tukutz concerning the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA). They recounted a moment that had a significant and positive impact on their career, all thanks to the members of Big Bang.
A Lonely Stage and an Unexpected Selfie
Tablo began the story by describing a scene after a MAMA ceremony had concluded. Epik High found themselves standing alone on the grand stage, a potentially awkward moment. Just then, Jiyong (G-Dragon) and the other members of Big Bang approached them. Instead of leaving them isolated, Big Bang joined them to take a group selfie on stage, a simple act that spoke volumes about their friendship and respect for their seniors.
Epik High Tablo’s Humorous Gratitude
Reflecting on the impact of that moment, Tablo humorously expressed his immense gratitude. He joked that because of Big Bang’s popularity and their public show of support, “Epik High was able to eat and live for at least 5 years.” Tukutz laughingly added to the K-pop anecdote, stating that thanks to the boost from Big Bang, they were even able to fly business class. This lighthearted commentary underscored the genuine appreciation Epik High felt for their junior group’s supportive gesture. The story from Daesung’s YouTube show has since resonated with fans, celebrating the enduring bond between these iconic figures in Korean music.
