G-Dragon, the iconic leader of BIGBANG, teams up with producer Kim Tae Ho for a new music-focused variety show called “GD and Friends.”
The world of K-pop stirs with excitement as G-Dragon, known for his innovative music and charismatic stage presence, steps into the realm of variety television with “GD and Friends.” This new venture, which will also go by the name “Good Day,” promises to blend G-Dragon’s musical talents with the art of storytelling.
G-Dragon will not merely host but will actively participate as a music producer, collaborating with a diverse array of guests to craft songs inspired by their personal narratives. Among the speculated guests are actor Kim Soo Hyun, the girl group aespa, and SEVENTEEN‘s subunit BSS, suggesting a mix of talent from various entertainment fields.
The concept of the show emerged from G-Dragon’s own creative vision. He reminisced about his childhood admiration for music collaborations and the joyous experiences during the “Infinite Challenge” Song Festivals, labeling such moments as “Good Days.” His aim is to create a platform where these cherished memories can be revisited and shared, asking, “What if we create a space for that day we all dream of?”
The show will feature G-Dragon working on several tracks, including “Tomorrow Is Late,” “United,” “We Are The World,” and “Red Sunset,” where each song’s lyrics will echo the unique stories of the show’s participants. This approach not only showcases G-Dragon’s production skills but also fosters a connection between music and the diverse lives of those he meets.
Fan reactions to the show’s concept have been overwhelmingly positive. Social media platforms are abuzz with comments like, “Great concept. It seems fun,” and “I thought it was a talk show, but now that it’s a music variety, my expectations are even higher.” Fans are particularly thrilled at the prospect of witnessing G-Dragon in a dual role as a variety star and music producer.
