G-Dragon to Sue People of Harassment & Defamation After Illegal Drug Accusations
After proving himself negative of taking illegal drugs, BIGBANG G-Dragon plans to draw a knife to his haters by taking a wide-scale legal battle.
On November 22, GD's representative, lawyer Kim Soo Hyun, announced the idol's plan through an official statement, stating his large-scale "war" against creators of slanders, insults and defaming posts against him.
The K-pop icon's side warned haters and malicious commenters that he would show no mercy, following a zero-tolerance policy, with no agreement or leniency.
Here's the full text of G-Dragon's official statement:
This is Kim Soo Hyun, Kwon Jiyong's legal representative.
We are taking legal action against the authors of malicious posts, including defamation, insults, sexual harassment, dissemination of false information, and malicious slander against Kwon Jiyong (GD's real name).
We are preparing to submit multiple complaints to investigative agencies by collecting evidence on insults, defamation, and acts that violate Kwon Jiyong's rights and interests, collected through self-monitoring and reporting from fans, and we will respond with zero tolerance.
In the future, we will continue to hold the suspects accountable and take stern action until the end without any agreement or leniency."
BIGBANG G-Dragon's Nails & Hair Test Negative for Drugs, Police Finalizing Case
On November 6, G-Dragon voluntarily appeared at the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency's drug crime investigation team after he was accused of taking illegal drugs.
At the time, he submitted body hair and urine to prove his innocence through a drug test and the male idol, since then, has been actively insisting he didn't take illicit substances and showed willingness to cooperate with the police till the end.
His reagent test later received a negative result from the National Forensic Service, which implies the possibility of taking drugs for at least 10 months.
For further testing, G-Dragon's nail was also tested, and the same as the initial result, he received a negative result. The police kept silent about the exact results of the test and said they were "investigating other parts," but having tested negative in all three tests, the case is yet to be finalized by the police who hardly hold any evidence aside from a testimony.
During an interview, GD also shut down speculations that he possibly used drugs due to emptiness or stress, like other celebrities.
"(But) I don't. I had to find a way to relieve emptiness or stress from time to time. However, it should never be a drug, and it's not a drug."
He also attested to fans his confidence of being innocent, adding:
"When I had other difficulties, I would have told myself, 'It's okay, it's going to be fine,' but I'm sorry that I don't have anything to say to myself for a few days.
As a public figure and a celebrity, I'm sorry to have made you worry in this way, but I hope you don't worry too much and watch the results.
I hope the day comes as soon as possible when I can return to my original position and smile as a singer. I want to meet you on a topic that can exert a positive influence. In order to do that, this situation must be resolved as soon as possible."
