The symbol has imparted knowledge on his latest encounter as a guest lecturer.
On June 17, ELLE Korea announced that BIGBANG’s leader G-Dragon would be the star of the magazine’s upcoming July issue. The issue will showcase the star wearing the Chanel Métiers d’Art 2023 – 2024 collection, highlighting his charm and captivating appearance.
In addition to the stunning visuals, G-Dragon also dedicated time to answering various interview questions once the shoot had wrapped up.
ELLE Korea inquired about the star’s role as a professor at the prestigious Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, commonly known as KAIST, where he was assigned to the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
G-Dragon went on to explain how the activity had truly been a fresh and exciting experience for him. He was also impressed by the students’ enthusiasm and dedication towards their chosen fields. The soloist added that their passion reminded him of his own childhood, to which he responded:
“It was a new challenge for me, so when I visited the campus for the first time, I was both confused and excited. KAIST is full of people who are passionate in their fields.
I thought the immersion of the students would blur their studies and daily life, and I found it similar to my childhood self when I was thinking and exploring alone in the practice room.”
The idol was also inquired about his interests, prompting him to disclose his willingness to venture into various fields.
“I tend to be curious about various things rather than one specific field. As a creator and human being, I have the desire to challenge something a little bit unfamiliar.
If this work is not my area of expertise, I’m willing to borrow someone else’s expertise. That’s how we can deliver higher levels of results.”
During an interview, G-Dragon was asked about his collaboration with Chanel and how he has been able to sustain his partnership with the brand.
“I think it’s because I don’t see this relationship as work. I’ve been able to do this because I don’t view making music as a job, and my relationship with Chanel also persevered because it resembles a friendship. Sincerity always works.”
The visuals, styling, and vibe showcased in his photoshoot left fans in awe and garnered strong reactions.
- “This artist’s a living breathing graphic composition in motion!”
- “The power, the influence, the mastery. No one can come close to him.”
- “Thank u so much ELLE Korea, I feel like it’s my birthday.”
- “He’s the coolest professor in KAIST.”
- “The beloved, most awaited, king, dragon and icon!”
