What’s the difference between G-Dragon and Kwon Ji-yong?
Hi Anon! So, I've been thinking awhile on how to answer this ask and what better way to answer than to quote the man, himself!
According to an ELLE interview, he shared that there is a difference between these two personas: “G-Dragon is full of self-confidence and he is a fancier and stronger person," while "Kwon Ji Yong is an introvert guy who has many thoughts in his mind and who wants to rely on family and friends. Kwon Ji Yong is searching for the comfort and reliable people that G-Dragon doesn’t have offstage.”
To add on, the MOTTE documentary depicts this difference quite well. If you're able to, do give it a watch to gain more insight into his life as both G-Dragon & Kwon Jiyong. I find that as G-Dragon - the performer, he oozes charisma and confidence as an outgoing, bubbly person. On the other hand, Kwon Jiyong is a shy, reserved person who somehow has an innate loneliness that can be felt throughout the film.
