GD expresses how he plans to stay with YG for a while

Many of the artists who get into the industry know very little of what they are about to embark on since they take on such a largely scoped contract at such a young age. And though it may be true for most artists that they wouldn't stick by their companies in the long run, GDragon thinks otherwise about YG Entertainment.

During an interview for the October 26th broadcast of KBS 2TV ‘Entertainment Weekly’ G Dragon immediately answered honestly when he was asked, “Do you plan to be signed with YGE forever”, he jokingly replied, “I am still young.”

The reporter continued, “Would you want to go to JYP Entertainment?”. G-Dragon answered, “I don’t think I’ll go to another agency. YG is like family”, expressing his loyalty to YG Entertainment.

About the founder of YG, Yang Hyun Suk, he commented, “I have known him for so long and I see him very frequently. We have a lot of chance to talk and I feel very close to him.”

During the interview, G-Dragon also explained why there were so many surveillance cameras at the YG building. He shared, “There are so many rooms in the building, and it is very difficult to find the artists and staff. So, our boss installed it to make things a bit easier.”

G-Dragon jokingly added, “It was also for a better communication, but I feel like being watched. When you’re sleeping, he contacts you asking why you’re sleeping.”

Cozy Up With G Dragon’s Sweaters From BSX

He looks like he is about to save his princess with that sword.

G Dragon models the new sweaters for BSX fall/winter collection. He looks so adorable in the pictures that it instantly wants us to buy those sweaters.

GD clearly knows how to sell clothes. We are already trying to keep our credit cards in our wallets because he is making us want them so bad. In the photos G Dragon is just playing around and he is having a lot of fun. Sweaters are always a perfect part of an outfit. Layering is crucial for the upcoming season.

I still can’t decide if I want the mustard one or the gray cardigan. Which one is your favorite?

Prepare To Be Ambushed By G Dragon’s Fashion

The fashionista is taking the world by storm!

Kpop sensation G Dragon has recently blessed us with his latest album, and now he is back to bless us with his style of fashion too!

Teaming up with Ambush, a Japanese line of fashion run by Verbal of the Japanese rap group, Teriyaki Boyz, G Dragon has been working on a collection that is scheduled to be released this year. GD’s line is said to consist of black basketball and baseball jerseys done in leather, along with gold necklaces and rings. Sounds just like his sense of style doesn’t it?

Ambush is actually one of the Kpop singer’s favorite fashion labels and he has always admired their clothing.

Although there is no confirmed date as to when the clothing line will actually be released, it is certain that the clothing will be available via Ambush’s website.

ASK IN A BOX: G Dragon Cutely Answers Your Questions

It’s so hard for him to sit still….so cute!

Have you ever wanted to ask Big Bang frontman G Dragon a question? ASK IN A BOX was there just for that reason. Ever wondered what the first thing GD does when he wakes up? It doesn’t matter what part of the world you wave your VIP crown from, G Dragon was willing to answer your questions (even in English) on this very exciting installment of LOEN Entertainment‘s fan interview series.

He nervously smiles and rocks back and forth as he reads the questions

He nervously smiles and rocks back and forth as he reads the questions

I don’t know about you, but to me it is strangely endearing to see the usually very commanding and composed leader being very shy and cute in front of the cameras, no flashiness, just Jiyong. The fact that he read almost all the questions, no matter how crazy, was pretty awesome. Gotta love the part where he tells two of his fans to call him, because he found their bluntness and enthusiasm flattering.

Awww, THAT SMILE!

Awww, THAT SMILE!

Don’t you just love it when this kind of dorkiness happens?

Along with the image, he wrote:

I met Seungry oppa and got a signed CD today! I’m not gonna get any sleep tonight.

Now that is too cute! He definitely played the part in the picture, appearing just like any regular fan would react upon seeing the idol: not being able to contain the excitement.
