G-Dragon has been involved in several relationships and dating rumors throughout the years he was actively promoting with BIGBANG.
When Wonder Girls debuted, G-Dragon collaborated with member Sohee on performances.
These two have rumors that date back to 2008, based on fans’ speculations over certain clothing and accessory items that were found in common between the two K-Pop stars.
Neither Sohee nor G-Dragon ever responded to their dating scandal, so it remains unverified speculation to this day.
One of G-Dragon’s more well-known scandal is with a Japanese model Kiko Mizuhara.
Since 2010, G-Dragon and Kiko Mizuhara have been involved in not one, but several dating scandals.
On multiple occasions, the two have been spotted together on what appears to date. From locations in Korea, Japan, Thailand, and Paris, they’ve been seen hugging and publicly displaying affection.
In 2015, G-Dragon had a dating rumor go viral with Girls’ Generation‘s Taeyeon, though brief. A “jjirashi (찌라시, tabloid news)” revealed that G-Dragon and Taeyeon fell in love with each other because Taeyeon reminded G-Dragon of his first love. To this rumor, both artists’ agencies have denied the suspicions and stated, “None of it is true. We aren’t quite sure why such rumor spread.”
Still, well into 2016, fans continued to put together a list of Instagram posts that seemed to hint at their relationship, especially because G-Dragon and Taeyeon are both avid social media users and aren’t quite the shyest to secretly displaying affection on Instagram. Fans grew convinced, even after the agencies’ confirmations, that the speculations could be true.
By 2016, G-Dragon became involved in another dating scandal with another Japanese model and actress, Nana Komatsu. As affectionate pictures from his private Instagram account began circulating, fans became convinced the two were in a relationship.
Nana Komatsu has always been a fan of G-Dragon’s. The two worked on a photo shoot together and grew closer, fans speculate.
Again, neither YG Entertainment nor G-Dragon has spoken up about this scandal. With his Instagram posts hinting at what seems definitely more than a regular friendship though, fans and netizens believe there was something between the two.
Early 2017, G-Dragon became involved in a dating scandal with former f(x) member Sulli, over some pictures that seemingly captured what is a “couple’s ring” on the stars’ fingers. This rumor surfaced shortly after Sulli had broken up with her ex-boyfriend of three years, Choiza, and she made everyone curious by uploading pictures of herself with who seems to be G-Dragon’s manager. So when a picture of G-Dragon and Sulli, along with Sulli’s good friends Gain and Goo Hara, taken at an amusement park went viral, fans began to believe the two are secretly dating. As G-Dragon mentioned Sulli being his ideal type back in 2009, fans were highly convinced that there is something between the two.
YG Entertainment was quick to shoot down the scandal. The agency revealed that G-Dragon himself spoke about the situation.
The most recent dating scandal involving G-Dragon is with former After School‘s Jooyeon. Once in October of 2017, then again in December of the same year, G-Dragon and Jooyeon made headlines as several photos and videos served as soft proof that the two are in a relationship. In fact, on January 1, 2018, Dispatch released evidence that G-Dragon and Jooyeon are indeed dating as they spent three days on Jeju Island together.
On a February 2018 episode of Knowing Bros, clarified this rumor for G-Dragon by stating none of the unmarried members are dating.
G-Dragon is definitely the hottest idol when it comes to dating scandals, with a total of six very well-known ones.
