G-Dragon officially left YG Entertainment
In the latest announcement, YG confirmed the end of the contract with G-Dragon. The company sent wishes, “We sincerely hope that G-Dragon will have a smooth new beginning, receiving much support and encouragement from fans.“
Furthermore, Sports Chosun revealed that G-Dragon may make a comeback with new music in the first half of 2024.
This news does not shock fans as G-Dragon’s exclusive contract ended in June 2023. Up to now, G-Dragon has removed links to YG’s official website from his YouTube channel, and his name no longer appears on the YG artist roster. During the drug scandal involving G-Dragon, YG also took no action to protect the BIGBANG leader as he is no longer under the company’s management.
The South Korean media reports that the “Kpop King” has signed a contract with Galaxy Corporation. Galaxy Corporation has announced that they will hold a press conference at the JW Marriott Seoul hotel on the morning of December 21 to address G-Dragon’s drug controversy. It is known that the leader of BIGBANG will not participate, but a representative from Galaxy Corporation will summarize the case, share G-Dragon’s perspective on the police, the nightclub manager’s false accusations, and malicious comments. At the same time, the company will also unveil G-Dragon’s plans for the coming year.
