G-DRAGON - POWER (Official Video) | Reaction

[@shahaida1790]

I like RM but GD is seriously on another level. His creativity in his music is unmatched. Like not 1 single idol / artist that i can think of come close to GD. Every single step in his music have its own meaning. Either you catch it or not

[@Riku_addict]

Facts, GD IS KING👌🏼👑✨

[@sweetnessesj]

Facts

[@OfficialAwkbe]

Agreed. GD's lyricism is unmatched. He's so incredibly talented that he was the first idol to break the stereotype of kpop and gain the title of "artist", after all.

[@RaisaIsdasari]

masterpiece of the century, he is

[@hixelmorgans5024]

True! 🔥✨

[@manyo-vr8wh]

There is no korea idol who can compete G dragon in talent and creation. G dragon breaks all the culture of K pop idols. There is no one like G dragon in Korea. He is so amazing.

@@Evergreen11612 I am a wine drinker, and a BIBANG/ TOP fan, but I can't get my hands on TSPOT wine in Australia.. I keep checking if shipping changes, but it would be nice to check it out. Thankfully music does not have such barriers and I am able to enjoy BIGBANG/TOP music.

[@emet17s]

The man’s aura is fire. He’s def one-of-a-kind.

[@Casper745]

G Dragon literally said I'm back to dominate the charts and Music with My presence and charisma as a performer and artist

[@zaderu5075]

A Limited Edition of the second generation, masterpiece of the century' true words have never been spoken. Dissed all of the haters and the medias who tried to defame him. The King is truly back

[@fatime2xd351]

Song(2minutes24seconds)->2+2+4=8 8 in the lyrics and a the end of the MV ! 8 songs in the album Born on August 18,1988 It's been 88 months since his last solo song released(7years ago) 88 is his number for real

[@Soda-yo]

I'm gonna add something too. GD's comeback is also in 2024 - -> 2+0+2+4=8 🤯. Glad the goat is finally back😭

[@Vee44443]

88 is his birth year too

[@fatime2xd351]

@Vee44443 yeah ! I said it !

[@pennyinheaven]

And who would thought that 2024 is the year of the dragon. Bruh. Everything is in place.

[@khoalatoi6966]

He indeed have a Rolls Royce and the plate is 8818 which is his number. From what I know, you can't custom Plates in Kr like we are in the US

[@dadada-ew7fh]

You can listen to GD's 2013 single "Miji Go" where the same train is used, which is just a tribute.

[@noah.2111]

that remine me about this mv too !

[@XyzyX154]

Also the small car tribute to crayon i think

[@heart.shaped.locket]

Gotta love the fact that the music video is just one straight run through on one camera, no edits, just one take of greatness!!

[@FirstTimeCatMom]

Lots of arising artists now but no one comes close to this living LEGEND!

[@sana-erlu]

You remember that girl because she is on the same team as Bada in SWF2, BEBE! That's Che Che and he has two other Bebe members on the mv, their names are Sowon and Kyma. And the long blonde hair girl is Redlic from Manequeen that also participated in SWF2. The male dancers are also great choreographers and some are famous too, like Howl and Minjun. GD really has the power. ⭐🔥

[@altxvs8640]

He said he is the limited edition of the second generation and he spilled the truth

[@healingsmile2833]

You're a kpop fan and a rap fan, but you can't do that if you don't know G-Dragon..! As far as I know, G-Dragon has been the standout figure in Kpop since Seo Taiji for a very long time. No one could be like him, no one could be like him, no one could come close.

[@louzagmi5075]

They don't Know much about bigbang like if you know you know, bigbang is masterpiece they don't know bigbang creating the kpop industry from whatever they see the culture, bigbang is the first one to do it, they are not just idol they are real ARTIST. like MJ held the titled of king of pop and BB got the titled too as king of kpop but these ppl wouldn't understand. Who's gonna told them BB is the first idol who breaking all the rules in korean industry they set the standar so ppl follow them. That is so expensive cuz they are CREATOR just like I said True Artist.

[@pennyinheaven]

​@@louzagmi5075I mean...couldn't agree more.

[@avocadoetarts]

credits to Tasty_playlist for the lyrics breakdown There are lots of Korean wordplay, so some lines of lyrics might feel awkward, These are some clues that you can understand the song more. 88: GD's birthday is 18.08.1988, So he puts his own meaning on the Number 8. That's why he wrote so many 8s in his lyrics. You can see the Metro map on 2:03, it's a track-list of his up coming album, there are 8 tracks. The last line of lyrics ("Fly high"): The original Korean lyrics' pronunciation is "Pal Pal Nara" (Means fly high). There is a wordplay as well, 'Pal' is 8, same pronunciation, and 'Pal Pal' is kind of onomatopoeia, 'Nara' is Flying, so this line was translated flying high in English. And that's why the ending scene shows 8 8 (Pal Pal) and GD jumps (Flying) (Nara) In addition, he came back in 88 months since his last comeback. The meaning the wordplay of the lyric "Spot to rest, a Global Luxury": The original Korean Lyric is this, 누울 자리 글로벌 명품 "Nu ul Jari, Global Myong pum (Glo / bal myong pum)" In here, Glo means text, lyrics, writings, everything about word or text. Global is global, the exact english word, but here's the thing, Bal myong pum is Invention. So he connected two Korean words to one English word (Glo + bal). And Myong pum is luxury, the words share same pronunciation, so these are some wordplay using pronunciation of Korean and English. This is crazy wordplay. in my opinion, GD likened home("Spot to rest") to every goal such as social status, honour, his position in the field, and he invented his goals, and it's also luxury. The main hook "I don't give a shh, Laughing end 'Money' Donating 'millions' Grin": last year, GD was suddenly investigated for drug scandal. During the investigation, every single time he attended to police station, he said "I don't care because I never drugged." At the result, the truth is GD was innocent, at the photo-line in front of the police station, he laughed. After the scandal, he recognised that the risk of drugs in Korean society, He founded a foundation for drug eradication, he donated KRW ₩ 300 million (about USD $ 218,828). So this story is where the lyrics came from. Meaning of "Power Abuse questioned Tolerance Natural Disasters Unavoidable Circumstances" During the drug investigation, journalists raised him a suspicion of Power abuse for having Drugs, at the same time, Korean News channels delivered that rumour without fact-check. However after investigation, he was innocent, and he was possible to accuse those News channels, but he was tolerant to them, he announced he will not get a court. This is the story of "Power abused questioned Tolerance" (Natural translation is like "I was tolerant when I was questioned Power Abuse"). Natural Disasters (천재지변: Chun Jae Ji Byun) = (천재, 지병: Chun Jae,[Genius] Ji Byoung[Chronic illness]) same pronunciation wordplay. Genius always has Chronic illness, and it's unavoidable circumstances (irresistible force). Meaning of "Forcefully criticise Spread a meme Talk blah blah shout out": During the investigation of drug, some news channels, fake news KZbinrs, and social media delivered GD's old interviews. In the interviews, he looked like he was addicted to drugs, because he speaks slowly, suddenly smiles, unnatural facial describing and his eyes. And these became memes and many publics criticised him. It was such a baseless criticism. People talked behind his back, but when after he finished the investigation, suddenly many people changed their attitudes, shout out him as usual like they haven't betrayed him at all. This story is where the lyrics came from. When GD says “개꿀” (gae-ggul), it doesn’t mean “super fun” or “good.” In Korean, “개꿀” is a slang term that suggests something is very easy or comfortable. So, when he says “애들이 나보고 개꿀이라더군,” he’s indicating that others perceive his life as very easy or effortless.” Übermensch is a german word that describes a concept from philosophy that means a human that has outgrown himself or herself, that is no longer burdened by the sorrows of ordinary people.

[@pennyinheaven]

Straight flush in poker too. Others may gave straight flush - a good winning combination in poker but GD is the royal straight flush - the best and highest combination.

[@guillanbalonga833]

Thanks for explanation,,

This is just a pre release for his comeback album, which is rumored to be called Power Up and its coming soon! Also he made so many references in this song, like the substances scandal they tried to involve him, the 88 months of hiatus (cuz he used exactly the 88 at the end of the mv😂), etc.

[@Vee44443]

88 is also his birth year

[@Priceless201]

@@Vee44443yeah that’s what I first thought of since he references it in other songs, then people were pointing out the months and I was like what a coincidence 😅❤

[@vettaj9752]

@ 250. You know the number. The older ones are coming out even stronger than many believed. The middle ones are doing their thing. The youngest was definitely betrayed by the media. They were seen on the international video station when they first debut. So many came b4 them. They dissed those who needed to be dissed. They respected their seniors and others. They had true power before the military. I do believe there is corruption within H@@@ company. Ppl should remember what things were said and connections made. I rather see EXO, MonstaX, Shinee, Bobby, Seventeen, KARD, StrayKids etc, perform anytime b4 that group. Groups with true talent aren’t noticed due to ignorance of ppl doing their own research. Even Woosung tells us no one is perfect and they will not pretend to be something they aren’t. The Rose were treated so badly by the Neitzens, management et al. Even they don’t bow down. I think u understand where I am coming from. BB are real men to their craft. They look, sing, dress, act etc. like men. I wish that 태양 never collaborated with any of them.
