G DRAGON - POWER

[doux-amer]

I can't believe the girls are back. I always dreamed of them reuniting because the way they broke up was so unfair to them and out of their hands. None of them wanted it to happen and now look at them get their flowers! Everyone screaming their heads off, singing the lyrics to every song, going wild like it's a festival, not a concert. Celebs of all sorts showing up, music acts from different generations giving their messages of love and gratitude, etc. People of all genders in the audience (what girl group gets so many guys yelling/screaming girl anthem songs like this especially in Korea? You know 2NE1 and BB were the special groups where they had more of a gender balance amongst their base than any other group)??!?!?! The girls belting out everything live and just. HIT AFTER HIT AFTER HIT AFTER HIT. Their discography is amazing.

Most of all, I love seeing them together, having fun. I teared up watching how emotional they were, with Minji crying and Chaerin trying SO hard not to cry. Bommie just....so much happier than we've seen her in a long time and soaking up the love we have for her. Dara having her dreams come true because there's no bigger Blackjack in the world than her. Them jumping around the stage together.

There's never been a girl group like them before, and there's never been a girl group like them since. Irreplaceable and impossible to imitate. No one has the charisma, the charm, the everything.

Question for the hockey girls: Does going empty net ever actually work? Cause so far we've seen lots of teams try it and all it seems to do is make them lose worse

[jiyongssi]

When is GD's full album dropping? Is there a date or not cause I see some speculations and idk which to believe

[itz-so-me]

A GD comeback could cure my depression…

[hotasfahrenheit]

i've seen a lot of people loving Ming's look for the last chunk of episode 10 and different commentary on it and just wanted to throw out there that the first thing it made me think of is G-Dragon and his love of Chanel women's blazers. i know basically Ming's whole wardrobe has been luxury brands this whole show, and i have no idea what brand that blazer is, but i'm sure it's expensive as heck.

if you're not into kpop enough to know who GD is, he's an absolute fashion icon and easily one of the most influential kpop idols of all time, so Ming being inspired by his fashion choices would completely make sense and just continue to show off the fact that Ming is a rich bitch 🤣

i find it interesting that if you think of it that way instead of thinking of it as a Hilary Clinton Blazer (which IS funny) or a white woman outfit, it changes the center of Ming's choice of clothing to being more about a potential statement of his own fame and power in the entertainment industry as well as this situation. G-Dragon is hugely successful and popular even now, with BigBang on hiatus for years at this point (even if you consider Still Life as a full comeback which it wasn't since there was no album (i cry about this song somewhat regularly don't look at me)), and despite all the various controversies and nonsense that he's dealt with through the years both as part of the group and on his own. Ming is clearly into fashion and as a model and actor would absolutely know who G-Dragon is and thus would also probably follow his style choices avidly.

Ming's clothing through this whole show has been a lense on him as a person- wealthy, stylish in his own clothes, but doing things like wearing Joe's tshirt, treasuring the watch Joe bought him, asking for the matching pajamas; wearing that blazer he's evoking a powerful, notorious public figure who has weathered hardship and scandals and fluctuating public opinion and still come out on top every time. Doing so when he's meeting with Tong to put him in his place, as a popular and famous member of the entertainment industry meeting another popular and famous member of the entertainment industry, he's absolutely sending Tong a message that he is more powerful and very certain of his place in the world, and will be able to handle anything Tong can throw at him.

continuing to wear that blazer when meeting with his father is a declaration of war.

One year ago already. This little polaroid was so empowering for BB and so encouraging for VIPs 💛

hello! can u do a reading about garagon cause he's finally back after that long 7 years hiatus. can u do a reading about his ideal type, plans for settling down if he has a partner, what he thinks of his fans and the koop industry? and his goal for his comebackkk? please i hope u read this cuz no one has ever done these questions

I'm not doing ideal type readings anymore, so I'm answering all but that question.

Plans for settling down + Does he have a partner right now? || cards: page of pentacles rx, the hermit rx, death rx, eight of swords rx

Honestly, I really feel like at some point in the recent past he actually thought that he was going to settle down with someone or was planning to go in that direction soon. However, this Page of Pentacles rx is suggesting that those thoughts/plans never came to fruition, and now that's (almost) completely in the background. This just feels like a relationship that didn't work out how they were expecting it to, but the solid potential and those wishes must've been there for sure. As for his current love life, I do think he is with someone, but their status isn't super clear. With the Death rx here, I'm assuming they have been together (to some degree) for a while now, too. Back and forth; on and off. - not sure if it's the same person that he was planning on settling down with, tho! could be but, still, I don't think that, as of right now, they have any actual plans to settle down together.

His thoughts on his fans and on the kpop industry || cards: three of pentacles, eight of cups rx, nine of wands rx, the devil

As I was shuffling the cards I heard "loyal, but also a dangerous weapon". "Fierce" is another word that came through. GD is for sure very thankful for his fans' love and loyalty. Many have stuck by him through all the craziest ups and downs of his career, and have chosen to believe him and defend him even when the rest of the world was against him. In a way, though, I even see him being in disbelief that there are people out there who care that much about him, and so he can't help but be filled with gratitude for that. On the other hand, as I said, he knows that they can be very fierce and, at times, hurt him more than the people that aren't his fans. "A dangerous weapon", I think, is then referring to both their unwavering loyalty towards him, to the point of obsession + what they are willing to do to defend him, but also, when they turn against him or begin to assume that they have ownership over him.

As for how he feels about the kpop industry, the first thing I heard was "an absolute shitshow" (and him laughing). lol It's a shitty industry filled with shitty individuals, to put it simply. So many people (trainees, idols, staff, fans, etc.) are taken advantage of; there is no real freedom; there are no morals. "It's all for the sake of making money and entertaining/distracting the world. It's a massive cult." I don't think he hates his job, and I certainly don't see him regretting where he has been and what he has done, but he does recognize that there are plently of flaws in this system, and those have to be pointed out. However, I also feel like he had some sort of awakening in these past few years, which led him to not only make peace with certain things, but also to change his mindset about the whole business. He's definitely in a much better place now than he was a few years back, I'd say, as he doesn't seem as angry or heartbroken about the state of it all. "Business is still business, and this is not the worst of it." - and by that, I think, he means to say that there are worse places to be and worse things happening, and this industry isn't even all that bad in comparison. Whoever comes in and signs that contract, know what they are up for. These dreams are very costly.

His goal for his comeback || cards: six of cups rx, the devil rx

Something I have noticed from the beginning: he just seems really detached from his past and whom we knew as "G-Dragon". It's like he's a completely different person; like he has/is completely disassociated. (I don't mean it in the literal sense. I'm not diagnosing anybody!!) So, in regard to his comeback, I just feel like he is trying to start again and find himself, and open up a new chapter in his life with this. This energy reminds me a lot of The Fool card, but in a heavier (or even darker) way, if that makes sense… It doesn't feel as lighthearted. It's like he doesn't know the industry anymore; he doesn't know the public. The world he left behind isn't the same he's stepping into right now. "I just want to try" is what I heard. He wants to try; experiment; see how it feels. He wants to see if he can find an audience that matches his current mindset, too. It almost feels like attending a high school reunion after 20-30 years, you know? Everyone has been through so much, everyone has changed. Some reputations may not be the best, and there might still be some grudges that people have been holding from stuff that happened in the past. And then the gathering may go well, super well, or really bad. Or alternatively, it may just feel like a waste of time altogether. - That's how it feels here.

#3 MAMA, SCHMAMA

y'all 😭 what happened to hating mama? just because your faves are winning doesn't mean they rightfully got their award...

before bts became the only kpop group that everyone and their mother knew, they too were mistreated by the corrupt company of mnet even after they became ultra famous in 2017/18. even the industry gods like exo and bigbang were too (hypocritical of the latter to perform this year, considering the iconic diss track gd did... yikes). like no matter what fandom you were in, you kinda unknowingly boycotted the show (because it was that bad).

stopped watching mama seriously like 6 years ago tbh. but hello?? THE bruno mars, global pop icon, came as a plus one, and couldn't get a stage any bigger than a pub's (bar's)?

it also just doesn't make any sense to me why out of all the great music that came out of this year, the winners just had to be bts who prepared their comebacks in advance before enlistment and physically couldn't be present.

[i digress but what happened to the law where it was illegal for a korean artist to release music or somehow make money during enlistment? i get how much bts contributed to the korean economy and culture (and I understand why they nearly got let off from going entirely that's fair enough) but since they are actually fulfilling their service then they should do it like everyone else has. like wasn't baekhyun meant to release bambi and candy a year or two before it actually was? i think he nearly got fined as well.]

mnet will do anything to appease it's majority viewership which is armys and other international fans, hence why they opened global voting and the whole thing has become backwards: from hating the awards and not wanting anything to do with it, to being all over it. absolutely crazy.

international voting = mass voting = mass streaming = no genuine, authentic data.

this entire year of kpop has gone backwards, all the work fans and artists alike did to let idols be human, do what they want without conforming to standards, having rights- LOL (sounds straightforward but it's korea we're talking about here the whole entire nation is physically in the year 3000 but mentally in 130 bc fr). down the drain

now ai is a freaking concept, there's digital groups (i suppose gorlillaz was a thing ages ago but still), shameless stalking's becoming worse, parasocial relationship mindsets are growing and the line between straight up hate and having an opinion is blurred. instead of fighting each other over who's better like children, we should maybe SPREAD AWARENESS OF COMPANY MISTREATMENT? like good on seungkwan for posting about joshua and how his relationship was a social media stunt which is next level batshit crazy!

we've gone back to the kpop where grown men and women, now debuting as barely tweens, act as if they have cooties, where the music which is basically the whole point of artists' careers, have become secondary.

yall I got super sick this weekend. I’ve slept for like 24 of the last 48 hours. I was somehow conscious for quali… not so much the race. I finally woke up this morning and finished watching the race replay and here are some thoughts:

GEORGE MF RUSSELL! wow that was such an impressive drive from him. Honestly starting to become a GR63 supporter. Mercedes has such good pace today. Makes me super excited to see what George and Kimi can do next year.

Lewis GD Hamilton. Honestly Ferrari better give him a decent car next year cause I want to see another championship from him before he retires 🤞🏻 such a comeback compared to how Brazil went. DOTD for sure!

Charles and Carlos did pretty good. Unfortunate that if the Ferrari lost the tires they were cooked but they drove well on the last stint to get back to 3rd and 4th. It’s looking really interesting for the constructors championship for the last couple of races.

Max got the drivers championship. I figured this would be the case after Brazil. He drove a smart race and kept it clean to bring it home. Honestly if you’d have told me in Bahrain that the WDC wouldn’t be locked down until Vegas this year I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s impressive from Max that he was able to keep the title with a car that hasn’t exactly been dominant this year.

My Mclaren boys… really not surprised to see them in no man’s land at this race. Vegas is basically a track made up of all the weak points of the Mclaren. Hopefully Qatar and Abu Dhabi go better and the Ferrari vs Mclaren constructors battle can be exciting to watch til the end of the year.

The battle for p6 in the constructors is shaping up to be a nail biter. Haas vs VCARB vs Alpine is not something I would’ve seen coming and I’m excited to see them battle it out. Also shout out to Pierre for getting that tractor to p3 in qualifying. Such a shame his engine gave up cause his form lately has been insane. Hopefully Alpine can give him and Jack something to work with for 2025.

Anyway thanks for reading my barely coherent sick brain thoughts on the 2024 Las Vegas gp… the long of the short of it is: the 2025 season is going to be INSANE. Cause I think we are going to to have some insane battles for both championships

[maracllea]

the fact that GD got both trademarks (for gd and g-dragon) into his possession from whygee makes me so happy bc omg king comeback? but i am seething even more bc this just shows whygee CHOSE not to give the trademark back to 2NE1 forcing them back to be able to do anything for fans

[psychicreadsgirl]

What are your thoughts on Gdragon scandal?

Not really my thoughts - but just a reading of the situation and GD's thoughts.

Long, long over due for this situation. He should not have been able to get away with it the first time, so this situation would repeat until he gets caught and punished. Look at how lukewarm/cold the responses from YG and Chanel were ... Tells you something.

He's very angry that he was caught and feels it is very unfair. He is so mad that he will drag others down with him like if he's going down then everyone else will go down with him. He'll most likely name names to try to get some deal. He knows that he probably can't get away with this this time so again he'll likely name other names.

GD thinks that people are now looking at his past videos to look at his behavior when really he's not the only one. Some other idols were totally high when they were performing or attending events and he thinks people should be looking at those idols too.

These drug scandals are just the start. There will be more and more.

Some people who were briefly overseas like maybe 1 day or a few days will be forced to fly back to Korea for a quiet talk . . . Some new song/album/movie releases/comebacks may be abruptly stopped or might not even happen. Also it's not just idols/celebs - some influencers, chaebol family members, trainees, ex trainees, sports players will likely be investigated. Like we've seen, they'll start investigating the familiar/ex offenders and then go from their circle of friends and so forth. Usually people who are friends have similar hobbies.
