G-Dragon Says His Voice Changed After Military Service And Viewers Noticed Too

When G-Dragon appeared on MBC’s in depth interview program Questions by Son Suk-hee, the conversation moved far beyond music. One moment in particular caught attention when the artist spoke openly about how his voice has changed since completing his military service.

An Interview Focused on Expression, Not Performance

Hosted by veteran journalist Son Suk-hee, the program is known for thoughtful questions rather than promotional talk. During the episode, Son commented on G-Dragon’s unique way of speaking, noting that even his gestures and facial expressions felt intentional, almost like a form of art in themselves.

G-Dragon responded casually, saying that this is simply how he has always expressed himself. He explained that staying completely still while talking feels unnatural to him and that his hands and body are part of how he communicates ideas.

“If My Hands Were Tied, I Couldn’t Talk”

As the conversation continued, G-Dragon shared that limiting his movements would make it difficult for him to speak at all. He joked that relying on words alone does not fully capture what he wants to express, adding that his hands and feet often carry emotions and meaning his voice alone cannot.

This led to a playful moment when Son asked how someone like him managed in the military, a place where expression is often restricted. G-Dragon laughed and replied that, fortunately, military life did not require much talking, which suited him just fine.

A Noticeable Change After Discharge

The tone shifted when G-Dragon reflected on changes he noticed after finishing his service. According to him, his voice has become noticeably lower. He explained that in the past, his tone was softer and more youthful, while now it feels deeper and calmer.

The comment resonated with viewers, many of whom have followed his career for years and are familiar with his earlier interviews and performances. For long time fans, the change felt like a subtle marker of time and experience rather than something sudden or dramatic.

Growth Reflected in Voice and Presence

Rather than framing the change as something negative, the moment felt reflective. The artist did not suggest that his voice was better or worse, only different. In the context of the interview, it came across as another sign of how time, life experience, and even silence can reshape a person.

As the episode showed, G-Dragon’s evolution is not only visible in fashion or music, but also in the quiet details such as how he speaks. Sometimes, growth is not something you see on stage, but something you hear when an artist slows down and talks.
