[The Fact | Reporter Munhwa Young] Singer G-Dragon satirizes the power of the media.
On the 31st, his agency Galaxy Corporation announced, "G-Dragon will make a comeback today at 6 PM with his digital single 'POWER'." This is his first solo song in 7 years and 4 months since his mini-album EP 'Kwon Ji Yong' released in 2017.
The new song 'POWER' is a song that exudes the charm of hip-hop with G-Dragon's intense rap added to an addictive beat that captivates the listener's ears. It contains witty lyrics that make you think about the meaning once more with ambiguous expressions.
In particular, the video released through the official fan SNS on the 30th contained a retro-feeling filming site with the new song 'POWER' as BGM and G-Dragon making a W with his fingers. G-Dragon also caught the attention of fans by revealing the entire song 'POWER' through a personal Instagram live broadcast. He performed various motions to the lyrics of the new song in what looked like a recording booth.
In addition, G-Dragon said on the tvN entertainment program 'You Quiz on the Block' (hereafter 'You Quiz') that aired on the 30th, "I came back because I wanted to make music again as G-Dragon, not Kwon Ji-yong, so my goal is to make a good comeback." He also said, "'POWER' is a song about power. To me, power is music," and explained, "As a third party, I felt the power of the media is very great during the 7-year hiatus. So I satirized the power of the media and included various meanings such as 'let's blend various powers well.'" G-Dragon's 'POWER' will be released on various streaming sites at 6 p.m. on the 31st.
