Netizens Find “Proof” That BIGBANG’s G-Dragon Left YG Entertainment — The Company Responds
BIGBANG‘s G-Dragon has become a hot topic after netizens found “proof” that shows the idol’s future with YG Entertainment.
Since debuting, G-Dragon has wowed netizens with his unreal talent, visuals, and personality, whether it was part of BIGBANG or as a soloist.
In 2022, other members of the group left YG Entertainment, and only G-Dragon was seemingly still signed to the company. A screenshot from YG Entertainment’s quarterly report recently gained attention after netizens felt it revealed G-Dragon’s future with the company.
In the report, a table was released that showed the current state of the celebrities currently signed under the company, including idols and actors, until March 31, 2023.
In the list, while it was clear that YG Entertainment’s list of actors and actresses outweighs the idols they have, many noticed the omission of G-Dragon in the singer’s section.
The table lists the artists signed under the company, and it has BLACKPINK, AKMU, WINNER, Sechskies, Jinusean, and TREASURE.
While it wasn’t surprising that T.O.P and BIGBANG’s Taeyang and Daesung weren’t listed, as they are no longer under YG Entertainment, many were shocked that G-Dragon’s name wasn’t listed.
When netizens saw G-Dragon’s omission, many believed it was “proof” that the idol had left YG Entertainment, whether moving to a completely different label or to a subsidiary, such as THE BLACK LABEL.

Following the topic becoming hot news online, YG Entertainment responded to the allegations explaining that G-Dragon was still with the company and that fans shouldn’t worry about the idol’s status with the company.
