On August 19, Zip Daesung uploaded a pre-release of the special episode celebrating Big Bang's 19th anniversary. For this episode, G-Dragon was invited as the special host with Daesung and Taeyang as guests.
Upon arriving, G-Dragon received a Zip Daesung badge, and he shared, "Finally, I got it. Funny how I really wanted this." He then noticed new badge designs on the table, created to resemble him and Taeyang.
Spotting the new badge, he commented, "This looks like me...during 'POWER' (promotion), but it's been a while since I've worn a scarf/bandana." He explained, "I wore them back then to cover my weight."
Fans were quick to respond, insisting that G-Dragon didn't appear heavy during the 'POWER' promotions. They also commented on G-Dragon's slimmer figure in his recent appearance on Yoo Byung Jae’s 'No Laugh Birthday Party.'
They commented:
"What weight gain?"
"Am I the only one getting older? GD, be happy. Even with some weight, you were still cute."
"Where’s the weight?"
"How did he lose it all? He looks exactly the same as before."
"He didn’t even gain that much… lol."
"Wow, after losing weight, he looks exactly like before."
"He also chooses scarves really well."
"I thought GD was aging, but after losing weight, his visuals returned. Maybe people need to lose weight."
"On ‘You Quiz,’ he had gained weight and looked mentally tired. These days, he looks great. His face immediately returned to his prime."
"It’s amazing how GD returned to his prime look… his voice has come back a lot too, it seems like he’s getting used to it now."
"He wasn't even that heavy before."
"Compared to the time from 'You Quiz,' he did lose a lot of weight."
"When he gained a bit of weight, he was cute, but he's so handsome now. But he didn't even gain much to begin with. lol."
"The bandanas were cute, though."
"I like GD when he was sort of chubby during 'You Quiz.' He was so cute."
