'Big Bang' Daesung passed the high school graduate qualification exam and will take the college admission exam… experiencing both joy and sorrow with Seungri

This year, Big Bang Daesung, in order to qualify for the college admission exam, took the high school graduate qualification exam and was successful in capturing the opportunity to apply to college. On the other hand, Seungri, who took the test on the same day, unfortunately was not able to pass and will have to retake the exam.

Daesung and Seungri took the high school graduate qualification exam for the first time on April 13, 2008, and received their mixed results one month later. Daesung, who is older than Seungri by one year, passed the exam and is now able to apply to college, while Seungri, who was not confident because of the lack of time he had to study in addition to preparations for the concert musical practices, unfortunately failed.

A representative of YG Entertainment said, “Although it would have been better if both of them passed the exam, Seungri, who failed the exam, is not disappointed nor discouraged […] In place of passing the exam, participating in the musical ‘Sonagi’ and being recognized in another area has more significance for him.”

According to YG Entertainment, it is planned that Daesung, who passed this high school graduate qualification exam, will prepare for the college entrance exam next year and Seungri will take this year's second high school graduate qualification exam in fall.

[*T/N: I apologize for the awkward title. Basically, the journalist was trying to say that Daesung has good results while Seungri has the opposite. "Joy and sorrow" is a phrase in Korean that cannot be separated.
In Korea, you take the high school graduate qualification exam to replace your high school education if you drop out. You need to be a qualified high school graduate to take the college admission test, which is the test that pretty much determines which college accepts you.]
