G-Dragon showcased '88 Power' brilliantly. With a donation of 880 million won, he conveyed a positive influence.
On the 13th, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Seoul, the launch event 'The Signal' for G-Dragon's PeaceMinusOne highball brand was successfully held. At the event, the third highball, for which G-Dragon personally created the artwork, was unveiled, attracting attention. The piece, themed on an imperfect daisy, contained a comforting message that says, 'It's okay not to be perfect as you are.'
Above all, on this day, G-Dragon made a significant impact by donating 880 million won, inspired by the number 8 symbolizing infinity, to the Just Peace Foundation, where he serves as honorary chairman, to continue treatment for adolescent alcohol addiction. He stated, 'I hope it becomes a culture where everyone participates, regardless of the size of the donation,' and expressed his hope that a joyful culture, like PeaceMinusOne highball, spreads widely on Earth.
The representative of his agency, Galaxy Corporation, Choi Yong-ho, also noted, 'This is just the beginning,' and said, 'We will continue to pursue stories that fill the gaps.'
Earlier, G-Dragon made a surprise comeback after 7 years with his new song 'POWER.' Immediately after its release, the song took all major music charts like Melon, Genie, Vibe, and Bugs, proving the might of a 'living legend.' In particular, on Melon, the number of users surpassed 83,000 in just 5 minutes after release, securing the 2nd spot on the TOP 100.
'POWER' was co-written by G-Dragon, and he collaborated on songwriting with producers who have worked with global pop stars like Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber. With its catchy beat and witty lyrics like 'I got the power, the power, power / 88 fly,' it showcased the pride of a representative K-pop artist.
With his comeback coinciding with donations and global attention, G-Dragon's return is truly fitting for the moniker '88 Power.'
