Professional↔Jangkku… G-Dragon, ‘POWER’ MV Behind-the-Scenes Video Released
On the 12th at midnight, a behind-the-scenes video of the ‘POWER’ music video was posted on G-DRAGON‘s official YouTube channel. The released video realistically captures G-DRAGON’s daily life, including his excitement and nervousness the day before his comeback, his first choreography practice, the process of preparing the teaser and music video, and the day of the music video shoot, preparing for his comeback after 7 years and 4 months, making fans go wild.
In particular, G-DRAGON‘s professional artist side, who participated in every planning process from the teaser to the music video, stands out. He said, “I think it would be good to mix in a lot of fun pictures,” and actively suggested ideas such as a set that gives different feelings like an escape room to increase the fun of watching the music video, and an ending where it seems like the singer is jumping into the sky from the subway to the lyrics of “88 Fly,” drawing attention.
The ‘POWER’ music video, which features G-DRAGON’s wit and sensible ideas, has surpassed 23 million views in just 12 days since its initial release on the 31st of last month, and is currently capturing attention from around the world.
It was also surprising to find out that the recording booth video, which became a hot topic when he revealed the new song through a personal Instagram live broadcast before the official release, was personally suggested by G-DRAGON.
The first choreography practice scene was also included, drawing attention. Despite being a choreography he was learning for the first time, G-DRAGON perfectly executed the ‘POWER’ choreography with his unique dance lines that added his own swagger, drawing admiration.
In addition, this behind-the-scenes video fully captures G-DRAGON’s endless charm, making us smile. After finishing a difficult choreography practice and lying down on the floor exhausted, he playfully rushed toward the camera as if he was going to break through the screen, and he also spread laughter with his innocent appearance while being completely absorbed in the toy car that appeared in the music video.
More than anything, G-DRAGON‘s comeback comment excited fans even more. Although he said he didn’t know yet because it was before his comeback, he said, “The response? It‘ll be good. If it’s exciting, I‘ll continue. If it’s exciting, I‘ll continue. If I continue, you’ll like it. That‘s how we’ll be forever,” making the viewers‘ hearts flutter with his aegyo-filled comment. He continued, “If you like it, I’ll keep coming. He added, “There are a lot of songs, they’re all good,” raising expectations for his future activities.
Meanwhile, G-DRAGON will appear on MBC FM4U’s ‘Kim Eana’s Starry Night’ (hereafter ‘Starry Night’) on Monday the 18th at 10 PM.
