However, many netizens voiced their opinions on the reason for his rather shocking live vocals.

An online community post, garnering almost 50,000 views, revealed past video clips of G-Dragon from the 2013 K-pop survival show WIN: Who is Next? (WIN).

In the clips, he revealed his singing method, even though it wasn’t a good one.

The throat does get injured, and it’s a very bad method, but I did it that way. I have a strong voice so my throat didn’t get bad. I practiced putting in a lot of force.

— G-Dragon

The OP felt that because his singing method consisted of scratching the throat, it was not the preferred method for an artist. While he may have been able to recover quickly when he was younger, they felt that his voice changed as he got older, making it harder to recover.

However, netizens felt otherwise.

“If he’s taken a break for eight years, there’s no reason for his voice to get this bad.”
“What’s with all the hate comments.”
“Don’t fans know that protecting them like this makes it look more ridiculous?”
“Where are the fans that are talking about this?”
“The excuses they are giving are clips from ages ago…”
“You can’t protect your artist for failing to care for himself. Coming back without effort or practice shows that he returned for the money. I don’t think he’s an artist with that much fame..”
