1. [+323, -15] Good man Taeyang. Unlike that someone who whined to his fans asking for them to buy him uggs on radio.
- Who said that?
- Rain;;; He talked about ugg boots on radio so his fans bought him a pair.
- Rain just wanted to escape the sun~
- I swear, it's always the wealthy ones that are more stingy
- Don't forget the Diablo limited edition beggars ㅎㅎ
- Rain can't beat U-KISS~ They just begged outright.

2. [+292, -25] GD declined as well, and now Taeyang... I bet even singers don't feel all that comfortable taking gifts from fans considering the large scale lately..

3. [+276, -33] Fans really need to stop pitching so much money into luxury gifts for celebrities. Whenever I see celebrities uploading proof pictures of the gifts they receive, I see it as nothing more than them asking for more.

4. [+44, -2]
U-KISS: I want a limited edition Diablo.
Fan: Oppa, can I buy you a regular edition instead of limited?
U-KISS: Ah, but limited..... ㅠㅠ

5. [+37, -6] Taeyang seems the most respectful out of Big Bang. I hope he comes out with a solo album soon.

6. [+36, -3] The best gift a fan can buy their favorite star is buying their music. This fan gift culture needs to disappear. Donate to the needy with that money instead.

7. [+27, -2] Other idols should learn from Taeyang. It always bothered me to see mountains of presents whenever an idol's birthday rolled around. And celebrities will even hint at certain gifts they want... ba$tards that use their fans for money.

8. [+26, -4] Taeyang has the best head on his shoulders out of Big Bang

9. [+26, -11] The only member left in Big Bang.. ㅜㅜ

10. [+23, -2] Big Bang fans never buy them luxury gifts anyway. There's no need to because they received sponsored products from every brand anyway. We just resort to health products or cakes. Ever since G-Dragon declined last year, we've also been doing charity donations.

11. [+23, -2] I don't really like Big Bang because of all their scandals but Taeyang seems to be a good guy.
