Vinyl Cover

Repurposing a white shopping bag into a mock vinyl-size sleeve and using oil paint to create an album cover.

A portrait of G-Dragon wearing a crown that is slipping to the side of his head. The gold from the crown melts into one half of his face - representing how fame and success can blur the individual behind it. At the same time, the spotlight can become suffocating yet, it is unescapable.

GD’s POV

A wide perspective shot of how the world views GD’s life, as his artistry has become a representation of Korean pop culture (therefore his world is illustrated as Seoul, South Korea - it's busy streets, flashy lights, and stage).

Bringing the stage to life

GD has become an icon of Korean pop culture, pioneering a unique perspective in music, fashion and art. The stage is his home and everything he touches comes to life, creating things that others cannot replicate.

From throne to flower

A throne is fitting for someone wearing a crown. As GD sits on his throne at the end of the stage, it transforms into a daisy. The throne represents the pinnacle of success and fame, the epitome of his being as a musician.

However, the moment he sits down, the throne turns into a daisy floating in the air. Representing peace and serenity. This daisy represents the simplicity behind human nature. Behind the stardom and spotlight, is a person.

The daisy is also GD’s infamous logo for his brand peaceminusone, and lightstick. Missing a single petal, demonstrating that there is a flaw in everyone, no one is 100% perfect. The animation shows GD lying on the daisy, finally smiling.
