So since I started liking kpop I’ve always liked Big Bang, but I can’t seem to shake the first impression of G-Dragon being a talented asshole who only thinks of himself. Nothing I’ve seen or heard about him has changed my mind (bc it doesn’t seem like real evidence) but I know he’s not like that bc people wouldn’t like him. And I’ve seen many posts about him being great but I still seem to think he’s a bad person. Help..?
Okay, hi! Thanks for coming here, first of all. Secondly, I totally know where you’re coming from.Â
G-Dragon and Kwon Ji Yong are two totally different people.
See, G-Dragon is this talented guy who is a total badass, a leader of a group known as The Kings of K-pop, he’s a diva, a fashionista, a bold and colourful person who will wear and pull off styles no one else will. He’s that super rich, famous guy that loads of people worship, he’s a celebrity to celebrities. That guy is someone Kwon Jiyong can be to separate his personal life from his idol life. That guy is someone that can help Jiyong come out of his shell and face his fears, someone that can help him get past his anxieties. G-Dragon knows he’s a badass and that’s why you get that arrogant vibe from him.Â
However, Kwon Jiyong is a simple, sensitive guy that wouldn’t dream of being disrespectful to anyone, he’s a goofy guy that likes to act like an idiot around his friends and the other members, he’s a guy under a lot of stress to be a leader, he’s a guy that just wants to have his personal life to be his, he wants to be normal when he isn’t being G-Dragon. He’s a shy and sweet guy, that helps whenever and where ever he can. He is just a normal guys that goes through the exact same things we do, he goes through the anxieties and depressions we do, he’ll have moments when he feels hopeless, worthless, and useless - that’s where G-Dragon comes in. He can stop living his life as Jiyong and be someone totally different, someone that hasn’t got fears, someone that lives to be bold and well know by the world.
This might not of helped you at all, but just remember, even though G-Dragon isn’t some type of bad guy, he is a totally different person from the soft, cute Kwon Jiyong. It seems silly to say but that’s how a lot of people view him, it might be a hard barrier to get past but I feel like eventually, you’ll realise that your opinion isn’t totally wrong but it isn’t totally right either!
IF ANYONE ELSE WANTS TO ADD AND HELP ANON OUT, PLEASE DO! I FEEL LIKE I WAS NO HELP AT ALL AND EVERYTHING I SAID MADE NO SENSE AND WAS STUPID LOL
