Chapter 116 of *The Divine Comedy* contains some forum-style writing; please consider this before purchasing! ...
Kwon Ji-yong listened quietly, looking at An Ru-feng. His gaze slowly shifted, and An Ru-feng's figure was clearly reflected in his amber eyes, which shone with a clear and gentle light.
“You’re right, ‘G-Dragon’ and ‘Kwon Ji-yong’ are both the real me,” he turned and reached out to put his arm around An Rufeng’s shoulder very lightly, a faint but genuine smile playing on his lips. “My very existence is a way of responding to this world.”
Anru Feng kissed him very lightly, and said with a smile, “Inner, all the confusion, vulnerability, division, glory and loneliness you have experienced, every aspect of you that you have shown, together constitute the unique, complex, but complete answer that belongs to the existence of ‘Kwon Ji-ryong’.”
“Yes, I am my answer to the world.” Kwon Ji-yong also kissed An Ru-feng lightly, paused for a moment, then suddenly revealed a bright smile and whispered, “I am not the problem, I am the answer to the problem.”
Quan Zhilong looked up, his clear eyes fixed on An Rufeng, and said softly, "Rufeng, you are my Beatrice."
At the summit of Purgatory Mountain, you led me into paradise.
"Have you found inspiration for a song yet?" An Rufeng asked with a light laugh.
Beatrice was Dante's muse.
Legend has it that Dante first met his muse Beatrice on the Ponte Vecchio in Florence. He only saw her a few times in his life, but developed an extremely deep love for her.
This love was also the ultimate motivation for Dante to create "The Divine Comedy".
Kwon Ji-yong nodded, his gaze fixed intently on An Ru-feng: "I'm going to call this song 'Divine Comedy'."
Dante's Divine Comedy recounts his experience of being lost in a dark forest during his middle age. Beatrice, witnessing Dante's plight in Paradise, requests the ancient Roman poet Virgil to descend to Earth and guide him.
Dante's Divine Comedy is divided into Inferno, Purgatory, and Paradise.
Both the Inferno and Purgatory chapters are guided by Virgil, and Beatrice ultimately leads them into the Paradise chapter.
Kwon Ji-yong is currently working on his last solo album before enlisting in the military. He plans to include his song "Divine Comedy" as the final track on the album, serving as the "Heavenly Chapter" of his entire solo album.
Anru Feng asked with a smile, "Why is it called 'The Divine Comedy'?"
Kwon Ji-yong put his arms around An Joo-feng's shoulders, his eyes curving into clear crescent moons, his smile overflowing: "Because you are my inspiration, because your love is the driving force of my universe."
My glorious and divine guide.
Upon hearing this, Anru Feng couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. One of the core ideas of the Divine Comedy is that love is the fundamental force driving the operation of the universe and the sublimation of the human soul.
Is such praise a bit much?
An Rufeng lowered her hand, straightened her expression, and met his gaze. She slightly raised her chin, her smile becoming calm and sacred, and cleared her throat: "Well, I've taken over your universe. So, Dante had Beatrice to guide him to glimpse the ultimate vision of heaven. And my dear Quan Zhilong, where do you wish me to lead you?"
Kwon Ji-yong looked at An Yeo-feng, his clear, smiling eyes shining like stars. He shook his head with a smile: "You don't need to do anything. You have already led me into the 'paradise' of my life."
Upon hearing this, An Rufeng couldn't help but cover her face and laugh, tilting her head back. Her cheeks flushed red at a visible speed, spreading all the way to the tips of her ears.
She smiled and hugged Kwon Ji-yong back, then leaned forward and kissed the corner of his mouth.
Kwon Ji-yong caught An Ru-feng as she retreated, chuckling softly, "Our Ru-feng, you rarely get so shy~ So cute~"
Kwon Ji-yong lowered his head and kissed An Joo-bong's hair, forehead, eyes, nose, cheeks, chin, and lips in a series of delicate kisses.
...
After the 10th anniversary celebration in January, the members will be busy with their own individual activities until the end of May when there will be a group activity.
Anjou-poong and Kwon Ji-yong plan to hold their wedding in Jeju Island in mid-May when the weather is mild.
In February, Anru Feng and Quan Zhilong took wedding photos, but they didn't post them on their social media accounts, not even on their alternate accounts.
It wasn't because of secrecy, but because the proposal and wedding were both outdoors, they took the wedding photos in a more private way, as they weren't suitable for outsiders to see.
However, the fact that they had already taken wedding photos became known to the outside world.
The photographer posted a photo of her and Kwon Ji-yong on Instagram, saying it was a pleasant collaboration.
She is a famous wedding photographer, and fans and outsiders guessed it after seeing the photos.
An Rufeng and her husband plan to announce their marriage after they get married, but they are not afraid of being disturbed by the media.
Although the marriage has already been announced, it's still necessary to give fans a heads-up beforehand.
So, Kwon Ji-yong gave the photographer a thumbs up, and An Ru-feng also gave one, "hinting" at it.
-From what I understand...this photographer specializes in wedding photography, right? And she's notoriously hard to hire and expensive. What is Oppa working with her for? Is Oppa getting married?
- Oppa and Unnie liked the post at the same time... Isn't that a tacit admission?
-If it weren't for a wedding photoshoot, what other 'collaboration' would require such a high-profile and secretive effort from this expert? It couldn't possibly be for a new album cover shoot, I don't believe it…
Good news is coming soon! It's definitely coming soon! From the proposal to the wedding photos, everything's going so smoothly! Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Long!
The comment section under this photographer's Instagram post has been flooded! The whole world is guessing if they took wedding photos! Their happiness is impossible to hide!
I'm really curious about their wedding photo style! Given their taste and the photographer's style, it'll definitely be both sophisticated and sweet! Could you give me a tiny hint?!
The photographer said "It was a pleasure working with them," and Brother Long and Sister An gave it a thumbs up. Does this mean they've officially announced their wedding photos? It's practically announcing their wedding date!
Congratulations!! Waiting for an official announcement!
-Aww, this is so sweet! This kind of subtle sharing is even sweeter than posting it directly! It's a kind of romance that's only for those who understand!

Aside from a few minor details that may need to be adjusted according to the actual situation, the wedding preparations are almost complete, so there's not much to worry about. After taking the wedding photos, Kwon Ji-yong is busy with preparations for his solo album and solo concert.
He plans to release his solo album in August, followed by a solo concert tour.
When does Ru Feng feel lonely?
Kwon Ji-yong finished the demo of "Super Star". An Ru-feng stopped when she heard the music and came over to take a look.
He wrote the song "Super Star" during a period of continuous loneliness. When Kwon Ji-yong saw her coming, he couldn't help but reach out and hug her, wanting to know what she was thinking.
An Rufeng was taken aback when she heard this, and then thought about it seriously before saying, "I have often felt lonely since I was a child."
Kwon Ji-yong looked up and met An Joo-bong's eyes.
“I started learning to draw from my teacher when I was in elementary school. If I put most of my energy into drawing, I would neglect my relationships with my classmates.” An Rufeng paused and asked Quan Zhilong, “You’ve been an artist since you were very young, so you should understand that feeling of estrangement from your classmates, right?”
Kwon Ji-yong nodded in understanding.
An Rufeng continued, "Starting from junior high school, I went sketching with my teacher, so I went to school less often and became more estranged from my classmates."
When I was in school, I couldn't join in their conversations or the popular topics of the school.
I have a tutor and I take every exam, and my grades are always good. I don't understand why so many people say my grades are "obtained through cheating," it's such a baseless claim. They're like monkeys littering banana peels.
Besides Tang Yu, I still wanted some friends my age, so I tried to make some friends.
But they often don't invite me to their parties or outings. Why? Because I might not have time to go. But why don't they just ask me?
I don't want friends like that. I've made new friends, but none of them last long. I tried to connect with them to find common ground, like dyeing my hair with them, but it didn't really help.
I'm confused as to why I can't make lasting friends.
For a long time, I had many questions. I felt lonely, no one understood me, and I didn't understand them either.
Later, as I grew older, I gradually realized that my life experiences were too different from theirs. Everyone's experience of life is different and personal; it's impossible to truly empathize, and misunderstandings are inevitable.
Kwon Ji-yong grasped An Yeo-feng's hand and squeezed it gently.
An Rufeng smiled reassuringly at Quan Zhilong, indicating that he didn't need to worry: "I don't get along with my classmates, but I won't force myself. I'm happy to be friends with books, paintings, and nature."
I found answers to many of my questions in the book.
Sketching at dawn and the awakening morning allows you to experience the unique softness, coolness, and delicate contrast of light and shadow with blue tones; sketching at midday, bright and passionate, allows you to experience strong, full, and dazzling colors; and sketching at dusk, glorious and serene, allows you to experience warm, soft, and colorful light.
At the foot of the snow-capped mountains in Nyingchi, one can experience the vibrant life of spring, with wild peach blossoms stretching for miles; in the Ili River Valley, one can feel the lush greenery of summer in the "sky garden" of the Narat Grassland; in Kanas, one can witness the magnificent autumn colors of golden birch forests and dark green spruce trees; and in Changbai Mountain, one can experience the pristine beauty of winter, with its frozen mountains and rime-covered birch forests.
An Rufeng paused, then smiled and said, "Every experience a person has in this world is unique. Therefore, loneliness is the norm. I am unique and destined not to be fully understood."
With a smile like stars in the corners of her eyes, she said to Kwon Ji-yong, "We are both lonelier than most people." She nodded slightly, lost in thought, "We probably experience loneliness with five times the strength."
Kwon Ji-yong gazed at An Ru-feng with gentle eyes, raising an eyebrow slightly: "What do you mean?"
"Because talented people are unique among unique individuals. And talented people experience solitude with five times the intensity."
Kwon Ji-yong paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Talented people experience loneliness five times more often?"
“Yes,” Anru nodded slightly, “Of course, the joy is also five times greater. When you create a finished product with your talent.”
She chuckled and pressed the play button for the demo of Kwon Ji-yong's song "Super Star," and Kwon Ji-yong's languid voice came out.
Anru Feng tilted her head slightly to look at him, "This song you wrote with the theme of 'five times loneliness' is destined to be both lonely and brilliant."
Kwon Ji-yong's gaze slid from the corner of her eye to the slightly upturned corner of her mouth. He gently twirled the end of her hair with his fingers, and the corner of his mouth followed suit: "I only feel radiant right now. Every time I'm with Ru Feng, my loneliness is offset, and I feel ten times more radiant."
An Rufeng chuckled: "Of course, because we are the same, both of us are 'one in a million'."
Kwon Ji-yong smiled and reached out to pull her closer. Just as he was about to do something, someone started knocking on the studio door, and they kept knocking.
When Kwon Ji-yong is writing songs, no one will disturb him.
An Rufeng pushed Quan Zhilong away, and Quan Zhilong reluctantly opened the door.
It was Shunhao; he said the president called.
Kwon Ji-yong went to the president's office, and shortly after, he texted An Yeo-feng to tell her to go home first, as he had a meeting that might last until late.
He was often busy until very late, so Anru Feng went home after reading the message.
Kwon Ji-yong went to the president's place in the late afternoon and didn't get home until the early hours of the morning.
An Rufeng was still awake. She had just finished painting a picture and came out of the studio when she saw Quan Zhilong returning home.
An Rufeng was startled by his dejected expression: "What happened?"
Kwon Ji-yong's face showed neither sorrow nor joy, nor calmness. But when he heard An Joo-bong's voice, his empty eyes finally showed emotion—pain.
His voice was light and airy.
"Tapgo is using drugs, the evidence... is true."
“I don’t know, Tapo…why did you do this…”
"The company is trying to smooth things over, but it may still be exposed..."
Kwon Ji-yong looked up at An Yeo-feng, "I don't want this to be exposed, even..." His eyes were fixed on An Yeo-feng's, as if he didn't want to miss any of her expressions, "If... this is exposed, I don't want Tapo to leave Big Bang... I want the complete Big Bang..."
An Rufeng gazed at Quan Zhilong, who was in pain and unwilling to accept defeat.
I thought to myself.
Now, for Kwon Ji-yong, the complete Big Bang is like poisoned chocolate.
-----------------------
[Cat's Paw] I think Brother Long's loneliness is the loneliness of a wise person, a fulfilling loneliness. His thoughts are too rich and have nowhere to go, no one to share them with, no one to understand them, so he can't find a matching resonance. If no one resonates with him, it doesn't matter much, because the loneliness of a wise person is not a barren wasteland, but a star burning inside, which can shine and radiate heat self-sufficiently.
