He added, "We are collecting evidence of insults, defamation, and other acts infringing on his rights through self-monitoring and reports from fans, and are preparing to submit multiple complaints to investigative authorities. We plan to respond with a zero-tolerance policy."

G-Dragon came under investigation on suspicion of drug use. Based on the testimony of A (29, female), a manager at a nightlife establishment in Gangnam, Seoul, the police suspected that he used drugs at the said venue in December of last year.

G-Dragon has completely denied the allegations. In an interview released by Yonhap News TV on the 21st, he asserted, "I did not use drugs."

He continued, "I don't know what kind of image people generally have of celebrities, but that is not who I am. Feelings of emptiness or stress are things I personally find ways to relieve as they come. It should never be through drugs."

Regarding criticisms about his excessive body movements and slurred speech, he explained, "Because I have danced for a long time, my body is more flexible than most people." He also said, "My speech has become more cautious, and I suffer from an obsession that I must speak responsibly with every word, so I try to think carefully and take longer to recall what to say."

Recently, G-Dragon tested negative in detailed analyses of his hair as well as fingernails and toenails.
