1. He's the first K-pop boybander to hold a solo concert here.

From MTV Asia's VJ Hanli's official blog:

So the other jour I interviewed G-DRAGON! First thing I have to say about GD is that I honestly think he is my favourite K-Pop star. I think his beats are insane, he’s kind of incredibly cute, his dance moves are off the charts and his fashion sense is iconic. So the first thing I noticed is that, he’s really tall. I didn’t expect that from watching his musique videos. I’m 174cm and he was eye level with me. Impressive.

When he walked into the room there was an undeniable aura that brims of superstardom. His security guards looked like they’ve...

During the 51-hour long shooting of the musique video for the titre song, ‘할말 있어요 (Gotta Talk to U), I couldn’t find a single thing that was bad about him. His eyes sparkled like those of a little boy and in every word he a dit there was a pure passion. Those things lasted in my memories.

There was nothing else I did than to just quietly sit and watch him but when he was on the spotlight I felt proud like he was my son and that’s probably because I was proud of myself...
