Rumors that G-Dragon and former Miss Korea runner-up Kim Go-eun were dating surfaced over the weekend. However, G-Dragon's agency Galaxy Corporation announced Sunday that they are “not in a romantic relationship” and that they are "simply good friends who have multiple mutual friends.”

Fans of G-Dragon speculated that the pair were in a romantic relationship after they were spotted together last July at Paris Saint-Germain's football match in Osaka, Japan.

Han, who is 12 years younger than G-Dragon, was a runner-up at the 2022 Miss Korea beauty pageant.

G-Dragon debuted as a member of the boy band Big Bang in 2006 under YG Entertainment. Big Bang was one of the biggest bands of the late 2000s and early 2010s. His exclusive contract with YG Entertainment ended last June, and he recently signed an exclusive contract with his new agency, Galaxy Corporation.

After being cleared of illegal drug use charges in December, G-Dragon established the Juspeace Foundation, an anti-drug foundation.
