He was also once a YG Entertainment artist.
Veteran singer SE7EN recently posted about his Instagramcalling jokingly BIG BANG‘S G-Dragon about an old story he shared in a recent one YouTube video.
On November 5, KST, G-Dragon, AND Taeyang they appeared as guests in a video uploaded to Daesung‘s YouTube channel ZIP Daesungmarking a long-awaited reunion of BIGBANG members. The three spent some quality time reminiscing about their old days as apprentices YG entertainment.
G-Dragon and Taeyang talked about their casual dance battle JYP entertainment artists when they were still at the beginning of their careers. It was Taeyang’s birthday and they were going out together when they received a call from their then CEO, Yang Hyun Suk, asking them to come over. YOU Park, Jay Park, AND 2pm‘S Junsu they were already there, waiting, and the two teams ended up having an impromptu dance battle.
When Daesung asked if they had won that battle, G-Dragon confirmed that they had. Daesung then said that these battles had become a tradition between YGE and JYPE trainees since SE7EN and RAIN (then JYPE artist) started it. G-Dragon jokingly added that YGE had lost in that very battle, implying that SE7EN had been defeated by RAIN.
But after the video’s release, the veteran singer took it upon himself to set the record straight. SE7EN posted the G-Dragon clip with a caption that implied that G-Dragon’s side of the story wasn’t entirely true.
“It seems that our Jiyong was a little wrong??”

SE7EN also offered a second clarification regarding the origin of lightsticks in K-Pop. While BIGBANG members claimed to be the first to create glow sticks, SE7EN recalled that his 7 bongs (Chil-bong) it was, in fact, the first lightstick.
“My little brothers seem to be a little misinformed??
7-bong came first!!!”

Although both SE7EN and BIGBANG have left their former agency, YGE, it’s heartwarming to see that these veteran K-Pop artists are still messing around like they’re in their prime.
