August 27th, 2018
YG Entertainment, the company of both idols, confirmed that G-Dragon and BLACKPINK's Julie are currently in a relationship.
After getting caught partying closely by Dispatch, Julie and G-Dragon were put under the spotlight and fans were demanding a positioning. YG Entertainment first published a note, yesterday, on August 26, saying: "We cannot confirm anything of our artists' personal lives."
'Isn't he a little too old for her?'
'Didn't know the King of K-pop was a pedo...'
'Wait, she's from 1998 and he's from 1988 and they met on 2013... she was 15 and he was 25 🤮'
'At April 2017, she was still eighteen (minor in Korea)'
Those were comments that gained a lot of attention and spread amongst people, and everyone else's opinion wasn't much different from that.
After a lot of questioning, speculation and backlash from netizens, the company announced another letter.
"Hello, this is YG Entertainment. Recently, rumours involving two of our idols are blowing up on the media.
Juliet Zhang (Zhang/Jang Julie) and Kwon Jiyong have mutual feelings for each other. We want to clarify the couple did not have any personal or romantic interaction before Julie's legal age.
Thank you for your attention, YG Entertainment."

we know YG only positioned because GD was the one being mostly criticized. if it was the other way around, i bet they wouldn't be this eager to explain
