It is known that the contract between G-Dragon and YG Entertainment ended last June. However, it was not until December that YG Entertainment officially confirmed G-Dragon's departure.

Last October, when the leader of Big Bang was involved in a drug scandal, YG did not take any action to protect him. According to Naver, the famous singer signed a contract with the entertainment company Galaxy Corporation. Galaxy Corporation also announced that they would hold a press conference to introduce the singer's investment on December 21.

On December 19, the investigation agency also announced the closure of the investigation into G-Dragon's drug use and affirmed that the male artist was innocent. A representative of Galaxy Corporation said that they will have a detailed announcement about the singer's scandal, his views on the investigation agency and the malicious comments directed towards him during the past time.

In addition, Galaxy Corporation will also announce G-Dragon's activity plan in 2024. According to Korean media, the Korean star and Galaxy Corporation reached an agreement in early December. On December 5, Galaxy Corporation also made a move to assert its sovereignty over G-Dragon.

Galaxy Corporation was founded in 2019, specializing in intellectual property but recently expanded into producing a series of entertainment programs. Galaxy Corporation's recent notable products include the reality shows Physical: 100 and Street Woman Fighter.

Experts say that G-Dragon's investment will bring a bright future and attract many resources to Galaxy Corporation. The male artist is an attractive name for investors, has influence and experience in training and leading idol artists.

The former Big Bang member is one of the iconic stars of Kpop (Korean youth music). Since 2016, Forbes has included G-Dragon in the list of 30 most influential people under 30 years old in the world .

According to Celebrity Net Worth, G-Dragon has a fortune of 30 million USD. With this fortune, G-Dragon has a luxurious life worthy of the title of Kpop king.

G-Dragon's fortune comes from royalties from songs he composed for the group and other artists, advertising contracts, and brand endorsements. In addition, the 35-year-old artist also does real estate, invests in businesses, opens cafes, and has his own fashion brand.

G-Dragon is living in a penthouse in Nine One Hannam (Korea) worth 8 million USD, owns a Lamborghini worth tens of billions of VND and a powerful black card of the super rich that only 0.05% of the Korean population owns.

At the end of October, Korean media reported that G-Dragon was charged with using illegal substances. The investigation agency quickly began collecting information and evidence and issued an order banning the famous star from leaving the country.

In early November, G-Dragon appeared for a drug test and participated in an interrogation with the investigation agency. After a month, the investigation agency confirmed that the male singer tested negative for banned substances and closed G-Dragon's case. However, the incident also affected the image and career of the star born in 1988.
