In a surprising and candid moment, G-Dragon, BIGBANG’s legendary frontman, revealed a new pastime he picked up during his mandatory military service, watching dating shows. G-Dragon joined his fellow bandmates Taeyang and Daesung on the latest episode of Zip Daesung, aired on November 1, where the three talked about everything from recent career milestones to lighthearted topics like favorite shows. While reflecting on his time in the military, G-Dragon admitted he had tuned into a dating show for the first time, a habit that surprisingly stuck with him.

During the chat, Daesung couldn’t resist bringing up G-Dragon’s new obsession with dating shows, saying, “Are you still watching dating shows these days? You were watching EX-change.” G-Dragon replied with a laugh, confessing, “Yeah, I adopted a bad habit while I was in the military.”

He shared that he first saw a dating show when stationed with fellow soldiers, and it quickly became a weekly ritual that fueled lively post-episode discussions. “We’d all talk about it after watching, so you can’t help but get immersed. That’s why I kept watching them, waiting for next week’s episode.”

Reminiscing about his military days, G-Dragon joked about the restrictions during military service, saying, “We couldn’t pay, so we had to wait three weeks,” adding that the delay made him all the more eager for each episode. His honesty and humor drew laughter from Daesung and Taeyang, making for a rare moment of camaraderie among the iconic trio.
