The renowned rapper-songwriter of BIGBANG, G-Dragon (GD), has recently caught himself up in a massive drug scandal. Along with the “Parasite” actor Lee Sun Kyun, this drug scandal has been taking a toll on the BIGBANG artist’s reputation. Yet, unlike Lee Sun Kyun, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) may have really been innocent this whole time. The latest signs and strong denials from BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) seem to have strongly supported his innocence in this drug scandal. Dive deeper into the case in the following report.
Dragged into Lee Sun Kyun Drug Scandal, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) Strongly Denies the Accusations
The massive drug scandal revolving “Parasite” actor Lee Sun Kyun has dragged BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD)’s name into a plunging reputation. However, recent updates and continuous denials might really indicate GD’s innocence.
On October 31, OSEN reported another strong denial from BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) regarding his drug scandal. It was the third time GD—birth name Kwon Ji Yong—denied his involvement in the drug scandal controversy.
Previously, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) had twice denied his involvement in the drug scandal. In his second statement on October 30, the prominent rapper even promised to voluntarily attend the police investigation and provide all the required evidence they need.
Today, both parties have agreed that BIGBANG G-Dragon would visit the Incheon Police Agency on November 6. During his visit, he promised to fully cooperate in the investigation. It includes providing the police with hair and urine samples.
“We wish to reiterate that Kwon Ji Yong (GD’s given name) has not engaged in drug-related activities.
Today, he has retained legal counsel and formally communicated his willingness to present himself at the Drug Crime Investigation Department of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency.
Through official correspondence and backed by his legal representation, Kwon Ji Yong strongly expresses his intent to proactively collaborate with the police investigation. He has chosen to appear at the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency’s Drug Crime Investigation Division on November 6 to expedite a just and transparent inquiry.
To ensure a swift resolution and elucidation of facts, Mr. Ji-yong has conveyed to the authorities his willingness to provide all pertinent data, including undergoing hair and urine tests.”

Announcing Strong Legal Action Against False Rumors and Defamations
Along with the above statement, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) also expressed his strong intentions to fight against false rumors and defamation.
After all, since Lee Sun Kyun’s drug scandal first dragged his name into the case, various rumors and speculations have circulated on the internet and social media. As a result, the reputation of BIGBANG’s G-Dragon (GD) has suffered greatly, leading to a loss of trust and even commercial projects.
Therefore, through his legal representative, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) announced he would take firm action against groundless rumors.
“We urge the media and journalists to report responsibly to avoid spreading false information that could harm Kwon Ji Yong, who has been the representative of Kpop artists in South Korea.
Also, we will strongly address any groundless speculations, false information, or defamatory statements throughout this process.”

Unlike Lee Sun Kyun, BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) Might Be Truly Innocent in the Drug Scandal
Following the strong statement from GD’s legal representative, many signs emerged, signaling that BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) might really be innocent.
After GD’s name appeared in the drug case involving actor Lee Sun Kyun, the police immediately applied for a search and seizure warrant for GD’s communication details. However, this attempt has reportedly turned into a failure.
On October 31, Xports News reported that the court had dismissed the police’s request for a warrant against BIGBANG G-Dragon. According to the report, the court denied the request due to a ‘lack of explanation of the facts of the crime.’
Since no clear evidence pointed out GD’s direct involvement in the drug scandal, everything remains groundless speculations. Therefore, the police cannot use the circumstantial speculations as grounds for warrant requests.
However, the police have insisted to attempt another request for the search warrant. They wanted to find out whether BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) was truly involved in the drug scandal. Also, they believed that determining GD’s relationship with the relevant people involved in the drug scandal was crucial to the case.
Another sign that might prove GD’s innocence was the complaint cancelation from The Korean Medical Association (KMA).
On October 31, the KMA sent a text to the reporters claiming they had canceled their complaint against the celebrity-related drug case. Previously, the KMA planned to file a complaint against doctor A, whose name appeared in the drug scandal involving Korean celebrities, including Lee Sun Kyun and GD.
However, the KMA canceled the request because they believed they had received false information.
“There has been some incorrect information in earlier reports about the supposed drug use case involving a celebrity. Therefore, we’re withdrawing the complaint today to check more facts.”

Fans Rally on GD’s Defense
Finally, following the recent signs and updates, fans began actively defending BIGBANG G-Dragon (GD) against the drug scandal.
Some fans believed that the people involved in the drug case simply used GD’s name to get themselves out of the case. In comparison, others believe that GD’s drug scandal was merely a manipulation to cover more crucial issues in South Korea.
Since then, articles involving GD’s drug scandal began disappearing from Naver News. Fans noticed that major South Korean media outlets had taken down their articles involving GD. And this may signal further of GD’s complete innocence.
Still, what are your thoughts on GD’s involvement in the recent drug controversy? It is crucial to confirm all the facts before making a biased judgment. Therefore, please stay tuned for more updates.
