G-Dragon monopolizes Kpop, Jennie encounters obstacles, immediately says one blunt sentence

Often placed next to each other due to past dating rumors, recently, Jennie and G-Dragon once again fell into an awkward situation when releasing products at the same time.

If G-Dragon dominates the Kpop chart, Jennie is struggling.

G-Dragon is undefeated

G-Dragon, the male rapper often dubbed "King of Kpop" has just released a new album called Ubermensch, marking his return after a long period of silence. This is the group leader's first album in nearly 11 years.

Ubermensch is the answer to the doubts that G-Dragon has exhausted his creativity after many years of working. Each song in the album bears G-Dragon's mark with a unique color that is hard to "collide" with in Kpop.

According to The Korea Herald, after the album was released, the title track Too Bad quickly climbed to the top of four major domestic music charts, including Melon, Genie, Bugs, and Vibe. Other songs on the album also achieved high rankings, such as Home Sweet Home and Take Me, which ranked 2nd and 4th on the music site Melon. This success reaffirmed G-Dragon's influence as an artist who is always at the forefront of the Kpop entertainment industry.

As a solo artist, G-Dragon's 2009 studio album Heartbreaker won Album of the Year at the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA). His 2013 album Coup d'Etat even made the 1988-born rapper one of the first K-pop artists to enter the Billboard 200 multiple times. Meanwhile, Kwon Ji Yong, who debuted in 2017, topped the Billboard World Albums chart.

Beyond music, G-Dragon has also established himself as a global fashion icon. Known for his bold and trendsetting style, G-Dragon became Chanel’s global ambassador in 2016, becoming one of the first Asian artists to represent the French luxury brand. That same year, he launched his own fashion label, Peaceminusone, which combines high fashion with streetwear and further cemented his influence in the entertainment industry.

Cultural critic Jung Deok Hyun emphasized the sustainability of G-Dragon's career. The expert noted that G-Dragon's career longevity is a major topic of discussion in Kpop.

"K-pop singers are often limited to the label 'idol', which prevents them from being considered real artists. G-Dragon broke that mold," Jung said.
