G-Dragon personally provides teasers to upcoming album MV

Posted by on August 13, 2012

Usually YG Entertainment takes care of promotions when its artists are about to make a comeback, but Big Bang’s G-Dragon is switching things up a bit and instead doing a little bit of self-promotion for his upcoming solo album.

During the period of three days from August 11 to 13, G-Dragon took to his Twitter to upload small teasers of his upcoming solo album. These teasers included photos of various things that happened on the set of his new music video set.

Some of the things that were included show a set with antique chairs and benches sitting in front of a wall that read ‘G-Dragon,’ an unseen man, presumably G-Dragon, wearing black and gold embedded boots with matching gold pants, and a spacious area that showcases different outfits encased in glass.

But the one spoiler that stood out the most was an elaborate origami flower that was made out of money, which attracted a lot of positive and negative attention. Netizens commented that by folding the paper money, G-Dragon was flaunting off his financial status as well as distorting government property. YG Entertainment has issued a statement, saying that the money flower is merely a prop for G-Dragon’s upcoming music video.

Also noted was the link, ‘http://xibgdrgnx.blogspot.kr/’ he posted on August 12, which led to a countdown clock, exciting fans that perhaps when time runs out his album will be released in time for G-Dragon’s birthday on August 18.

    I swear YG has the best promotion methods - you never know what's gonna appear next :p

    In other news - big deal about the money. Even if it was real, dude can do whatever he likes with it. I used to pay my bills with money that had been torn up and sticky-taped back together again. Still worked fine. *shrugs*

    Everything is just too excited right now! I knew the day would come were he released his second album but I didn't expect to be this happy haha I have to go back to school on Thursday but I think I might just stay off until the album...

  • florizza

    I thought the origami flower was pretty creative...then again, you can't get away from all the critics. I'm really excited to see what GD has in store for us in this comeback!

  • fang_1205

    abt the money flower thing, i thing people just blow it out of proportion. he's a man of art, let him express his creativity, for goodness sake!!! get i get an amen here!!!!

  • juno_bug

    I don't know if this is YG's strategy after all, but somehow it's better for the artist to promote his/her own album because it gives sort-of-personal feeling to the fans. Hope the best for GD, can't wait for his new album =)

    • http://twitter.com/onobj Otgoonoo

      for heartbreaker he created me2day and i think YHS recomended it ^^ now twitter, great promotion~

  • VIPUSA

    YEAH!! so excited for the new album..I hope its a full album and not a mini album...either way I will be happy as a clam.. :P and who said you need a team of PR when you can do it yourself...GOOO GD!!....

  • mizskullzzz

    GD has learned d techniques of teasing and trolling from papa YG...kekeke

  • KA

    Please take some rest, Ji.

  • http://twitter.com/tizjeiljalnaga thebaddestfemale

    He kinda HAS to do this since now even teasers have to be approved by that stupid thingy (idk the name, don't really care). Good thing they didn't think of Twitter and decide to screen everything that's posted there too -_-

  • linnunrata

    To be honest I prefer GD's photo teasers to YG's 15- 20 sec. official teasers.Sometimes a photo - can be much stronger, teasing, meaningful than what you can watch.The photos that he posted for the MV have got me so much into his second solo project, made me so excited, more that I could think of..
    I'm sure his new way of "teasing" trend will be followed by many...

    Now, I'm just counting down for his comeback.

  • clay maryel san jose

    Ahhhhhhhh...jiyong oppa..super excited here!
    me singing: "I cant breathe
    THE GOSSIP MAN is BACK!!

  • http://twitter.com/YinPestano Cindy Pestaño

    I do think this is the same as his first album, though back then, he used me2day. :) I think GD wants to personally promote his album/s. :)

  • http://twitter.com/lizywon_vip 지원

    Again... pls, YG. Dont make him too tired. thx for GD's hard work but I hope he duznt make it too much.

  • Kimmy

    It definitely appears more personal when he uploads the teasers himself. It makes me like him even more and makes me even more excited! I understand how the music/and video teasers are difficult now too though haha but it would be great if YG say reposted gd's tweets on yg-life or anything for those that still don't know he has a twitter.

  • GDnic

    singing, rapping, dancing, writing, composing, leading fashions, stealing hearts, promoting, is there anything this man cant do? hahaha
    GD tweeting just shows how excited and happy he personally feels. sounds like the album is gonna be LEGEN - wait for it - DARY!
