G-Dragon launches anti-drug foundation
K-pop sensation G-Dragon has emerged from a recent drug controversy with a profound gesture that’s reshaping his legacy. After being cleared of drug allegations, the iconic artist not only returned to the limelight but initiated a bold venture aimed at making a positive impact. G-Dragon has launched an anti-drug foundation through his new agency, Galaxy Corporation, accompanied by a significant donation.
Once a prominent figure at YG Entertainment, G-Dragon’s music has left an indelible mark in the world of K-pop. Now, he’s leveraging his journey to inspire hope and transformation. His substantial contribution and the establishment of an anti-drug foundation signify a proactive stance, aiming to turn a contentious chapter into a catalyst for constructive change.
Confirming the donation, G-Dragon emphasized, “The first donation will be based on the name of VIP (BIGBANG’s fandom name), and I will make a full donation under the name of the Guardians of Daisy, which I voluntarily created through this incident.”
Galaxy Entertainment clarified that the charitable initiative is named JUSPEACE, derived from “justice” and “peace.” G-Dragon’s donation, amounting to KRW 300 million (approximately $231,000), signifies his commitment to this cause.
This announcement follows G-Dragon’s exoneration from a drug investigation earlier in the year. Law enforcement authorities concluded that the allegations lacked substantial evidence, absolving him of any wrongdoing.
