Blackpink's Jennie And BIGBANG's G-Dragon Are Dating: Reports

Since he was a high school student, G-Dragon (real name: Kwon Ji Yong) soon showed an artistic talent. He was described as a sociable, lively student and was loved by his friends.

In 2009, he enrolled at Kyunghee High School, but for various reasons, the male singer no longer attended the school. In March 2010, he enrolled in the Department of Sports and Entertainment at Cyber ​​International University. He was 22 years old at that time.

Cyber ​​International University has the advantage that all courses can be taken online, which is perfect for idols who are busy with overseas tours. In August 2013, GD earned 140 credits of online learning. Kwon Ji Yong graduated from International Cyber ​​University at the age of 25 and by the age of 28, the male idol was awarded a doctorate.

However, Dispatch once announced that the study time helped G-Dragon delay his enlistment. GDragon’s delaying enlistment is not against the law. His education-related issue, however, became a contentious issue in Korea, as many people are outraged that celebrities are treated differently in terms of military enlistment.
