Career Dragon Start

After that farcical live stream clarification, the hashtag #G-DragonAndSuYouPreparingForPregnancy# remained trending for a full week. Just when everyone thought the couple was about to enter "baby-making mode" and slow down their careers, G-Dragon's studio dropped a bombshell without warning.

New album release and global tour plans

On a sunny Tuesday morning, G-Dragon's official social media accounts simultaneously updated, releasing a visually striking teaser video. The black, white, and red color scheme, rapid editing, and accompanying a catchy and powerful snippet of his new song culminated in a still image with the words:

G-DRAGON

WORLD TOUR

ING SOON

Almost simultaneously, YG's official website and major ticketing platforms launched preview pages for the global tour, announcing shows in more than a dozen cities across Asia in the first round. Starting from Seoul, the tour will pass through Tokyo, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, and other cities, making it a grand spectacle.

The fan community instantly erupted in excitement, with the previous "preparing for pregnancy" topic being completely overwhelmed by the ecstasy of "returning to the stage":

[Ahhh, Brother Long is going on tour!]

New album! New tour! The king is back!

So, should we put our plans to conceive on hold for now?

[A workaholic is indeed a workaholic!]

When the news was announced, Su You was in her study analyzing an economic data report. Kwon Ji-yong gently pushed the door open and entered, leaning against the doorframe with a hint of barely perceptible apology in his eyes.

"You saw the message?" he asked.

Su You looked up from her computer screen, her face showing no surprise, but rather a knowing and supportive smile: "Representative Cui informed me beforehand. Such a big project, you must have been preparing for it for a long time, right?"

G-Dragon walked over to her, pulled up a chair, and took her hand. "Actually… the concept for started after I was discharged from the military. It's not just an album, or a tour; it's more like an artistic reflection and declaration of my past, present, and future." He paused, his tone becoming more serious. "I know we just said we'd let things happen naturally, but starting this project now might mean…"

“It means we’ll be very busy, we’ll see each other less often, and our previous ‘let nature take its course’ plans may have to be put on hold for now.” Su You picked up where he left off, her tone calm and gentle. “Zhilong, I understand. This is your dream, an indispensable part of your life. I never thought you would give up such an important artistic expression because of me, or because of a possibility that has not yet come.”

She grasped his hand in return, her fingertips conveying strength: "Our future is long, but the peak of inspiration and creation needs to be firmly grasped. Go, go and finish your 'REBIRTH'. I will be here, applauding you, and waiting for me here to realize my own value."

G-Dragon looked at her, his eyes filled with gratitude and love. He knew how understanding she was and how precious her support was. He leaned in and gave her a deep hug, everything understood without words.

With the tour plans announced, G-Dragon's studio instantly went into high-speed wartime mode. Meetings came one after another, and he personally oversaw every aspect, from song arrangement and stage design to lighting and visual effects and costume styling, striving for perfection.

In the past, he might have been planning how to "let things take their course" at this time, but now his mind is full of melodies, rhythms, and stage movements. The workaholic G-Dragon has officially returned, even more so than before.

The team members also felt this change.

"Brother, this is the revised third version of the stage design plan," the stage director said nervously, handing over a tablet. "What do you think..."

G-Dragon stared at the screen, his fingers swiping rapidly, his eyes sharp: "The main stage lift here... I want a more dramatic entrance. Also, the lighting and colors aren't conveying emotions accurately enough; this, this, needs adjustment..."

He was completely immersed in his work, his focus and passion seemingly returning to his peak. During occasional breaks, he would look at photos of himself and Su You on his phone, his eyes softening, but that tenderness would quickly be replaced by new creative inspiration. 〈REBIRTH〉 is not only a rebirth of his art, but also seems to have temporarily pulled him back from the anticipation of becoming a father, allowing him to fully immerse himself in the world of music.

Meanwhile, Su You didn't stop her work either. A major research project at the think tank had entered a critical stage, and as a core member, her workload was equally enormous. But she always managed her time efficiently, even thoughtfully having her assistant bring her warm ginseng tea and a nutritious late-night snack when G-Dragon was working late into the night in meetings.

She understood that the best approach at this moment was to "let nature take its course" and shine in their respective professional fields, becoming each other's strongest support. She stopped focusing on the details of preparing for pregnancy, resumed her occasional coffee, and returned to her beloved spicy food. Her life became more fulfilling and energetic thanks to the satisfaction of her work.

Naturally, their friends also learned about the tour. Seungri sent a series of emojis in the group chat: [So, does this mean my little nephew/niece won't come until after the tour is over?]

G-Dragon replied with a "get lost" emoji.

Taeyang sent a private message: 【Great plan! Let me know if you need any help. Should Hyorin spend more time with Yuzu?】

G-Dragon replied gratefully: "Thank you, hyung. She's very busy herself, but they occasionally meet up for afternoon tea."

Everyone tacitly stopped mentioning the topic of "preparing for pregnancy" and instead began to look forward to the REBIRTH world tour, which was destined to take the world by storm.

And so, the focus of life quietly shifted. The apartment was no longer just filled with parenting books and healthy recipes, but also with information on the touring cities, stage design drawings, and densely packed sheet music. Late-night discussions also changed from vague hopes for the future to concrete refinements of stage effects and musical arrangements.

This was a well-considered, joint decision. They still love each other and still look forward to a complete family, but for now, they choose to focus on achieving their shining dreams together. Children are the fruit of love, a gift for the future, but not the sole purpose of life. Before becoming parents, they are first and foremost themselves, artists like G-Dragon and scholars like Su You.

The REBIRTH tour is not only another rebirth in G-Dragon's artistic career, but also a special footnote in their married life—about understanding, support, and growing together. They know that the path called "going with the flow" is still there, just temporarily turned a corner, leading to a broader stage that is more suitable for this moment.

The anticipation surrounding "Little Dragon" was gently cherished, awaiting a more opportune moment, a quiet arrival during an ordinary time when the spotlight has temporarily dimmed. Now, it's time for the music to resonate across the globe once more.
