G-Dragon's Daring Smile Amidst Drug Scandal Shocks Media at Police Station Entrance
Renowned singer G-Dragon (real name Kwon Ji-yong), aged 35, faced his initial police inquiry amidst allegations of drug use, steadfastly refuting the accusations.
Voluntarily presenting himself at the drug crime investigation office of the Injeon Police Agency within Nonhyeon Police Station in Incheon around 1:20 PM, G-Dragon donned a navy blue suit and blue shirt, with his black hair.
Despite preparations for a significant turnout, only about 100 reporters, including those from Japanese media, were present. Approximately 150 riot police were deployed in anticipation of crowds, but the site remained largely devoid of fans and YouTubers.
