An additional interview video of singer G-Dragon was recently released.
On November 21st, Yonhap News TV released an additional video of G-Dragon’s interview, which was previously released on the 13th under the title of “Revealing a Story That I Didn’t Talk About.”
When asked G-Dragon if he thought this kind of public gaze was something to endure as a public figure and entertainer, G-Dragon replied, “I’m more careful because it’s something I’m enduring and I have to endure,” adding, “Because of the nature of being a celebrity, it’s a job that receives public attention and love, so you have to take more thorough care of yourself.”
As to whether he has had any contact with any drug-related people, the singer said, “Never. If I have a feeling (that this person is related to drugs) or should I ever be in such a situation, I would avoid it and prevent that person on my own,” he replied.
When asked if the emptiness or stress of celebrities can them to using drugs, G-Dragon stressed, “I don’t know what image you usually have (about celebrities), but to tell you my opinion, I don’t. You need to find a way to personally relieve your emptiness or stress. It should never be a drug.”
Regarding what he wants most now, he said, “It’s an abstract expression, but it’s freedom,” adding, “It’s a basic right, but for me, due to the nature of my job as an artist and a singer, I have to create my own freedom, and it’s my duty to act as a medium to comfort and exchange comfort to many people through my work, but it’s not the case right now.“
G-Dragon emphasized, “To gain that freedom, the investigative agency needs to give rapid announcement of the investigation results. As mentioned earlier, it is the biggest key to you and to me.“
