  • The Shocking Appearance of the King of K-pop G-Dragon at 36

    The Shocking Appearance of the King of K-pop G-Dragon at 36

    BIGBANG’s G-Dragon has set social media ablaze with his appearance at recent events

    Lately, G-Dragon has been all over social media. The biggest buzz came from his stage return after a 7-year hiatus at Taeyang’s concert on September 1st. BIGBANG’s leader, along with Taeyang and Daesung, reunited for a performance of “We Like 2 Party.” To top it off, the iconic duo GD x Taeyang performed their hit “Good Boy,” turning the stage into a party.

    G-Dragon’s return certainly reinforces his status as the King of Kpop. He has announced that he’ll be releasing a solo album in December, which has fans eagerly awaiting. Beyond his amazing stage presence, another hot topic is G-Dragon’s appearance at 36. 

    After the Taeyang concert, G-Dragon continued to make waves at an exhibition event with Pharrell Williams, where his visuals really stood out.

    During his 7-year hiatus, G-Dragon’s looks often sparked debate. Sometimes he appeared handsome and young, other times he sported a beard that made him look like an uncle. Now that he’s gearing up for a comeback, he’s clearly put effort into refining his appearance.

    A recent viral photo comparing G-Dragon’s current look to his appearance from over a decade ago has shocked fans, as he seems not to have aged at all. With his same face and hairstyle, G-Dragon appears to have aged backwards over the past 10 years.

    At Taeyang’s concert, photos of G-Dragon looking shy and seated in the stands also drove fans wild. His youthful style is reminiscent of rookie idols, but what sets G-Dragon apart is his aura. Even when he was standing next to SEVENTEEN BSS, it’s hard to see the age difference. G-Dragon is a unique figure in Kpop; no matter how he dresses, he always draws attention and sparks conversation.

  • “Block BIGBANG” Fans Condemn T.O.P, Calling Him “Careerless Outside the Group” and “Disqualifying as a Human Being”

    “Block BIGBANG” Fans Condemn T.O.P, Calling Him “Careerless Outside the Group” and “Disqualifying as a Human Being”

    T.O.P’s actions on the occasion of BIGBANG’s 18th debut anniversary dampened the celebratory mood for fans.

    On August 19, BIGBANG marked their 18th debut anniversary, a significant day for the K-pop group that has now reached legendary status. G-Dragon and Taeyang each posted messages celebrating the milestone, interacting with fans and tagging Daesung, showcasing their continued camaraderie.

    However, the celebratory atmosphere was disrupted by a former member who was effectively removed from the group. While Seungri, who was ousted from the Korean entertainment industry due to the “Burning Sun scandal”, remains silent, T.O.P drew negative attention by blocking fans who tagged him in their 18th debut anniversary posts.

    This behavior has led to a heavy atmosphere among BIGBANG fans. The frustration is palpable as T.O.P, who gained fame through BIGBANG, appears to be distancing himself from the group, further aggravating fans. Their criticisms have been flooding in.

    One fan’s lengthy post garnered hundreds of likes, criticizing T.O.P by stating, “T.O.P is just like a child, doing whatever he wants. He’s the worst at fan management and communication in BIGBANG. Despite his so-called ‘artistic’ persona, he has shown nothing to justify it.”

    This fan pointed out T.O.P’s lack of achievements outside of BIGBANG, noting, “He has shown nothing. As a singer with no albums to his name, all he has are songs with childish lyrics like ‘Turn It Up’ and ‘Doom Dada’. Unlike G-Dragon, who has succeeded publicly, or Taeyang, who is recognized musically, T.O.P has never released an album in 14 years and pretends to be an artist, a singer.”

    The fan further criticized T.O.P’s personality, saying, “T.O.P benefited the most from BIGBANG’s artist image thanks to G-Dragon and Taeyang. His personality is so selfish that it’s disqualifying not only as an idol but as a person. The popularity and wealth he enjoys, even after 8 years without work, are thanks to BIGBANG’s legacy, yet he acts so arrogantly.”

    The fan’s post has resonated with many, with numerous BIGBANG fans sharing similar sentiments, expressing their disappointment and frustration with T.O.P’s recent behavior and decisions.

  • Former BIGBANG Member T.O.P Erases His Past: Allegedly Blocks G-Dragon and Taeyang on Instagram

    Former BIGBANG Member T.O.P Erases His Past: Allegedly Blocks G-Dragon and Taeyang on Instagram

    On August 21, reports emerged that former BIGBANG member T.O.P allegedly blocked fellow members G-Dragon and Taeyang on Instagram, sparking intense speculation among fans and media alike.

    This revelation came just days after BIGBANG’s 18th anniversary on August 19, a milestone that was celebrated by fans worldwide. However, instead of joining the festivities, T.O.P reportedly blocked fans who tagged him in congratulatory posts. The escalation of these actions led many to believe that T.O.P had also severed ties with G-Dragon and Taeyang by blocking them on social media.

    Rumors that T.O.P blocked G-Dragon first surfaced in mid-2023. Specifically, many people noticed that all of G-Dragon’s likes on T.O.P’s old posts had disappeared. This sparked speculation that T.O.P had outright “blocked” the account of his close younger brother and former groupmate.

    Fans were abuzz with discussions, raising suspicions that a major conflict had arisen within BIGBANG, leading to the duo “cutting ties” with each other.

    Previously, in February 2022, T.O.P ended his contract with YG Entertainment. At that time, it was announced that he was still a part of BIGBANG, though the group had few joint activities. However, this past May, T.O.P confirmed that he had officially left BIGBANG to embark on a new journey.

    Notably, the former BIGBANG member even removed the group’s name from his posts on his Instagram story. This saddened BIGBANG fans, who felt that even though T.O.P had left the group, it wasn’t necessary for him to be so harsh.

    T.O.P Blocks Fans Who Tag Him in BIGBANG Group Photos?

    Recently on August 18, BIGBANG celebrated their 18th debut anniversary, and members G-Dragon, Daesung, and Taeyang even got together to celebrate.

    As Seungri has left the group and is involved in multiple crimes, fans are reluctant to associate him with BIGBANG’s image even on the big day.

    However, the situation is different with T.O.P, who, despite having announced his departure from BIGBANG, got tagged into group photos by fans. This is understandable, considering that T.O.P has been an important part of the boy group for a long time.

    T.O.P seems to be vehemently against any association with BIGBANG, however, as the male idol was discovered to have liked fans’ posts congratulating him alone yet blocking all fans who tagged in him group photos.

    It seems that he really no longer wants to be known as T.O.P of BIGBANG even on a big day, and this saddens a lot of fans.

    BIGBANG’s G-Dragon Spotted Celebrating Birthday with Chaebol K-pop Trainee?

    Previously, BIGBANG’s G-Dragon held a birthday party on August 18 and shared various photos of himself in a photobooth.

    Via these photos, netizens quickly spotted The Black Label’s soloist Jeon Somi, as well as a rather familiar face next to her.

    In particular, standing next to Somi was none other than Annie Moon, a former K-pop trainee that was previously rumored to be debuting with The Black Label’s upcoming girl group, MEOVV. While her debut news has since been debunked, discussion about the former trainee still continues due to her impressive background.

    To elaborate, Annie Moon (also known as Moon Seo Yoon) is an heiress from the huge Shinsegae Group, and her family is so wealthy and powerful that they can be called ‘chaebol’ in Korea.

    It seems that Annie Moon also boasts extensive connections in the entertainment industry despite no longer being a trainee.

    According to G-Dragon’s agency on March 29th, it was confirmed that G-Dragon’s piece, ‘Youth is Flower,’ scheduled to be auctioned at the Contemporary Art Sale at Seoul Auction Gangnam Center in Sinsa-dong, Seoul, had been canceled.

    The artwork, created in 2017, depicts symbols representing G-Dragon himself, including a daisy flower, painted on an iron panel within the “Untitled 2017” at Jeju Shinhwa World, when G-Dragon served as the brand ambassador. The starting bid for the auction was reported to be 30 million won.

    Galaxy Corporation, G-Dragon’s agency, said, “According to the confirmation from the artist, G-Dragon himself did not submit the artwork for auction. The artist does not know who submitted the artwork or under what circumstances.”

    G-Dragon, known as an art enthusiast, was previously listed in ArtNews as one of the ’50 Notable Collectors’ in 2019. Recently, he also personally designed the cover for the February issue of ‘Fortune Korea,’ the Korean edition of the American global economic magazine ‘Fortune,’ featuring Galaxy Corporation’s CEO, Choi Yong-ho.

G-Dragon also made a surprise appearance on Soo Joo’s fashion program ‘Devil’s Runway’ in 2016.
