G-Dragon has finally spoken out about BIGBANG’s future, and his words are making waves.

On the February 23 episode of Good Day, G-Dragon was seen having a deep conversation with his close friend, actor Hwang Jung Min.

During their talk, Hwang Jung Min shared his thoughts on acting, saying, “I feel more comfortable in supporting roles rather than as the lead. Being the main character means taking responsibility for everyone, but when you're in a supporting role, you can just focus on yourself”.

Hearing this, G-Dragon suddenly hit the table as if he had a realization and said, “I think I also felt uncomfortable as a solo artist but more at ease in a group. That’s why performing at MAMA with the members felt comfortable for me”.

Hwang Jung Min, who watched BIGBANG’s MAMA performance, also commented, “I could see how excited the younger artists were. They must have dreamed of becoming like BIGBANG’s GD. Even I felt thrilled watching it”.

He continued, “That’s what I love about singers. As actors, we don’t get to create those big moments in such a short time. But while performing on stage, I understood why singers love concerts. The energy with the audience is something else.”

Later, G-Dragon mentioned BIGBANG again during a gathering with other 1988-born celebrities.

While talking, Kwanghee recalled his past experiences performing alongside BIGBANG and mentioned that ZE:A had nine members. He then joked, “If I were born again, I’d practice singing a lot and be in a three-member group”.

However, G-Dragon didn’t seem amused. He quickly responded, “We didn’t become three because we wanted to”, seemingly throwing shade at T.O.P and Seungri, who left the group due to controversies.

Kwanghee, caught off guard, immediately apologized, saying, “That’s not what I meant”, causing laughter among those present.

With G-Dragon finally speaking out, fans are now wondering—what’s next for BIGBANG?

The NewJeans contract dispute is getting more intense, and now, some fans have started a truck protest urging ADOR to talk things out.

On March 27, trucks were spotted in front of HYBE’s headquarters in Yongsan, Seoul, displaying messages like “We respect NewJeans, but we can’t let them walk a dangerous path” and “NewJeans has 6 members, but the penalty is for 5.”

These protesting fans are worried about NewJeans’ decision to keep fighting the lawsuit despite the court already ruling in ADOR’s favor. They warn that if NewJeans loses the main case, the financial penalty could be massive.

The court previously dismissed the group’s claims for contract termination, raising concerns that the members could face even bigger disadvantages in the next trial.

NewJeans first notified ADOR of their contract termination last November and later rebranded as NJZ, preparing for independent activities.

However, the court sided with ADOR, stating there was "not enough reason to justify ending the contract." Despite this, NewJeans has filed an objection, and a new hearing is set for April 9.

The group firmly claims that “trust with ADOR is completely broken, and we cannot work together anymore.” But inside the fandom, opinions are split—some want to support the members no matter what, while others worry that “this fight might only hurt them in the end.”
