The Short Jiyong Pimp Post
Happy 21st Birthday Jiyong!!
Real Name: Kwon Jiyong 권지용
Stage Name: G-Dragon
Birthdate: August 18, 1988
Let me just start by saying that this pretty boy here Kwon Jiyong, the one and only leader of Big Bang (Nicknamed Kwon Leader) and the Fashionista of the group because of his very unique style. No, really have you seen the pictures for his solo album? Yes, that is him as a very hot blonde. (Sorry, is my bias showing?) But don't worry, despite this boy's love of constantly changing his haistyle, Jiyong sure knows how to rock it and is super cute. Andd just because he's my favorite, he gets extra pictures like these. XD
But don't be fooled by his fashion sense, because this boy is hella talented. He was a child actor and model before entering the music industry at the age of 12. A year later he was scouted by YG Entertainment where he was originally supposed to debut in a duo known as GDYB with YoungBae. However, Yang Goon (the President of YG Ent.) thought it was better to debut them in a group, so after creating one through a documentary, he made Jiyong the leader of Big Bang. But even before debuting as a member of Big Bang, he was featured in numerous YG music videos and collaborations such as Perry's Storm MV and 1TYM's Hot MV (These two are my favorite). Along with being a rapper, singer, and dancer, he is also a brilliant song writer and composer. You know Big Bang's hit song Lies? Yeah, well, he wrote that; as well as Haru Haru and Last Farewell.
So come on, give in to the GD love, because he'll surely show you some.
Fun Facts:
Jiyong tends to act like a girl.
His best friend is YoungBae aka TaeYang, because they go wayyy back in the day and practically grew up together. Ngl, they've probably taken a bajillion pictures together during their training days. And I totally ship GDYB.
Apparently, he likes to pick on the makenae, thus the infamous G-Ri nickname and pictures.
