G-Dragon Opens Up About Past Drug Allegations: "Had Nowhere to Speak"

Singer G-Dragon appeared on MBC's 'Whispers of the Past' and candidly shared his feelings of injustice and distress during his past involvement with drug allegations.

During the broadcast on the 5th, when asked about his state of mind when he was implicated in the incident, G-Dragon said, "When I was making an album, I got involved in an incident a year ago, and I wanted to express my perspective as a third party within all the satire." He revealed his frustration and sense of injustice, stating, "It was something I didn't want to know about, but I became the person involved."

He further confessed his pain, saying, "Even though I was the party involved, I had nowhere to speak." In response to host Sohn Suk-hee's empathy, "Even though you were clearly the victim," G-Dragon expressed his frustration with the situation, saying, "It wasn't that I wanted to complain or be unfair, but the matter spiraled out of control."

During his hiatus, he described experiencing mentally difficult times, saying, "I don't know how I spent those 2 to 3 months during the year-end and New Year holidays." He honestly conveyed his feelings, stating, "I felt empty and futile," adding, "I didn't want to hold a press conference and ramble about my position, but it was frustrating to think that I had to endure it as a painful process."

Korean netizens watching the broadcast expressed sympathy, with comments like 'G-Dragon, how difficult it must have been' and 'The truth must be revealed.' Some fans sent messages of support, saying, 'Thank you for continuing to promote so steadfastly.'
