Member of BIGBANG, G-Dragon, was investigated by the prosecutor’s office in Seoul (South Korea) due to suspicion of smoking marijuana last May. The result of the drug test came out positive but there weren’t any legal penalties because only the hair test was positive. Avex and YG Entertainment had a discussion after Avex heard the announcement. G-Dragon received a suspension of indictment but the news has an influence on (how he will be viewed by) Japanese society*. Because of this, Avex has accepted the fact sincerely and has decided to cancel the release of GD&TOP’s Japanese single, Oh Yeah (feat Bom of 2NE1) on November 9th, even if the incident happened before they had a contract with Avex. We apologize to everyone and to all of the fans for this incident. We will try our best so that something like this will not happen ever again.

*Note: A popular Japanese celebrity was jailed just recently because of drugs and even if G-Dragon isn’t guilty, anyone who is reported with anything related to drugs are viewed badly.
