Big Bang G-Dragon confessed that despite earning a vast fortune, he cannot use mobile banking at all.
On the 22nd a video titled 'commemorative day is Pinggyego' was uploaded to the 'DdeunDdeun DdeunDdeun' channel.
Haha asked, "Can you do bank stuff on your phone?", and Yu Jae-seok said he could, but G-Dragon said, "I can't." Surprised and shocked, Yu Jae-seok's eyes widened as he said, "What will you do if you can't do bank tasks, what about all that wealth," and Haha echoed, "What about all that money," as they worried in unison.
G-Dragon mentioned a wealth manager and said, "There is someone who manages it for me." In response Yu Jae-seok advised, "Even if someone manages it, you have to check it yourself," and Haha said, "Trust them? Trust a person? I don't even trust machines. That's why I go to the bank myself."
Taeyang said, "I do go (to the bank), but I mostly use mobile," showing an opposite tendency, and G-Dragon said, "I go to the bank to meet and talk and do some things, but I can't do anything on the phone," appearing unable to handle things meticulously.
G-Dragon's exact assets have not been publicly disclosed, but after debuting in 2006 with the group Big Bang and succeeding as a global idol, he lived as a top star for about 20 years, producing huge hit songs as a solo artist.
In the past G-Dragon purchased the luxury apartment Nine One Hannam for 16.4 billion won in full cash, and he is also known to own Galleria Foret in Seongsu-dong and two buildings in Cheongdam-dong. According to the audit report of his agency Galaxy Corporation, it was suggested that annual settlements from last year's world tour exceeded 65 billion won. Also, because G-Dragon himself wrote most of Big Bang and solo album hit songs, annual copyright royalties are said to be substantial. Even with conservative calculations, some say G-Dragon's assets are at least 100 billion won or more.
Meanwhile, Big Bang simultaneously released the digital single 'BiiiG' and its music video worldwide at 6 p.m. on the 19th on various online music sites. It was their first new song in four years, released on their 20th anniversary, and it swept No. 1 on domestic major music site real-time charts.
