Based on information from an anonymous insider, the leader of BIGBANG had been consistently putting in effort at The Black Label studio in order to complete his eagerly-awaited album.

Drug Allegations Derail Release Plans

Despite being reportedly completed under YG Entertainment, the album was scheduled to be released in November 2023. However, on October 25, 2023, G-Dragon’s involvement in drug allegations caused a wave of shock throughout the Korean entertainment industry.

Despite the renowned artist’s distress, the false accusations persisted for weeks, ultimately resulting in the postponement of the album’s release.

A Timeline of Unfolding Events

In anticipation of his long-awaited return, G-Dragon and YG Entertainment teased fans with the G-Division project in early 2023, marking his comeback after a five-year break following the release of the EP “Kwon Jiyong.”

Despite the chaos caused by the drug allegations, G-Dragon declared his separation from YG, stating his wish for a new beginning at Galaxy Corp.

Resilience Amidst Adversity

Despite facing difficulties, G-Dragon persevered and continued to work diligently on his album, starting from the beginning under his new label. Most recently, Galaxy Corp. released the long-term plan for “Dragon,”teasing a potential return in the second half of 2024 and the possibility of a World Tour.

The controversy surrounding G-Dragon’s alleged relationship with a trainee from THEBLACKLABEL resurfaced in the latest news, following the emergence of leaked photos featuring potential members of the rumored girl group.

Despite her affluent family background and close connections with YG Entertainment artists, Moon Seo Yoon, also known as Annie Moon, gained media attention. However, in January 2023, dating rumors between her and G-Dragon circulated after they were spotted together at an event. These speculations were quickly dismissed by both Shinsegae and YG Entertainment.

Despite YG’s typical approach of neither confirming nor denying rumors, they clearly denied this one, effectively resolving the dating controversy.
