On March 29, just before the return of the variety show 'Good Day' on MBC following a hiatus due to the controversy around cast member Kim Soo Hyun, G-Dragon caught attention with a cryptic quote shared on social media.
G-Dragon posted a quote by Friedrich Nietzsche that reflects on how creation can offer salvation from suffering but requires enduring personal struggles and changes. This post, along with a previous update, hinted at G-Dragon indirectly alluding to the controversy involving Kim Soo Hyun. The previous post featured a screenshot from 'Infinite Challenge' with HaHa's line "Get it together. In this harsh world."
A Taiwanese social media account discussing Korean entertainment questioned followers about Kim Soo Hyun’s future on 'Good Day' amidst allegations of grooming a minor. Despite the controversy, Kim Soo Hyun participated in the show's recording on March 29.
Responses to the poll varied, with comments expressing concern for G-Dragon, calls for Kim's removal from the show and the entertainment industry, as well as neutral opinions suggesting waiting for Kim’s explanation. G-Dragon reportedly liked a post related to this, which was noticed by fans.
While MBC claimed the March 23 cancellation of Good Day was due to program reorganization, viewers perceived it as a response to backlash over Kim Soo Hyun's alleged relationship with fellow ’88z’ member Kim Sae Ron.
The episode scheduled to air on March 30 will showcase the 'Good Day' cast gathering, with a focus on G-Dragon. The episode will involve longtime collaborators like Jung Hyung Don, Defconn, Code Kunst, and Jo Se Ho, as well as other guests related to the project, in a 'Good Day' general meeting.
