Article: Paint wipes off G-Dragon's USB album... Japanese fans "be careful everyone"

1. [+825, -49] And stupid fangirls still find a way to shield even a controversy like this (article mentions a GD fan defending the paint job saying it might've been done on purpose with the USB representing GD himself and the red paint job representing his blood)

2. [+819, -50] So they get up in arms whenever they receive gifts from fans written in their blood so why do they expect us to buy their album with something like what looks like their blood wiped all over it? Psycho

3. [+694, -40] Hul ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ this is really bad

4. [+84, -2] I can't believe that fan is defending this saying it's supposed to look like blood on the USB ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ yes, how "creative"..

5. [+81, -3] Second of all, the USB doesn't even contain music!!!

6. [+61, -0] Reminder that this USB costs $30... and all it contains is a download link ㅋㅋ

7. [+61, -0] So this USB costs $30? ㅋㅋㅋ This is a scam

8. [+61, -1] So that fan is saying that GD purposely designed this so that the red paint comes off like blood?! Hopeless..

9. [+60, -0] Stupid fangirls are amazing ㅋㅋㅋ even paint coming off a USB was creatie and intentional

10. [+48, -4] GD must really think of his fans as stupid pigs to produce something of this quality

1. [+1,416, -57] Meanwhile TOP's scandal is quietly being buried

2. [+1,201, -80] I'm really so sick and tired of YG's media play, although I already felt that when they covered GD's ridiculous drug scandal

3. [+115, -17] GD's probably still sitting in his room right now thinking that we're too dumb to see this USB on his level ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ wake up, Jiyong-ah

4. [+103, -2] A "creative" album that you can only listen to by inputting the USB, clicking a link, and submitting a serial number ㅋㅋ stupid fangirls calling this revolutionary... yeah, this is revolutionary alright ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+101, -4] If I'm going to pay $30 to put in a USB and get a link to download his album, I'd rather just download it myself off of a digital site. This is so pointless.

6. [+81, -0] You can buy a Samsung 128 gb USB for $30 ㅋㅋ GD-ya, you're getting too greedy... selling a USB that doesn't even have your music ㅋㅋ

7. [+79, -2] GD might as well have sold a piece of paper with his link and serial number written on it ㅋㅋ how is it any different from his USB ㅋㅋ

8. [+74, -1] This USB is nothing to start a boycott over ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ because anyone with a sane mind would never have bought it in the first place ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+64, -4] After seeing the way his fans defended the paint coming off his USB, I've come to realize that these are the same idiots who would buy GD's poop if he was selling it while saying "it's an opportunity to smell and feel our oppa"

10. [+60, -1] GD needed to have produced these USBs as 16 gb storage with digital songs and music videos provided as files in them

Article: G-Dragon's USB, paint comes off, URL instead of music files... is it worth $30?

1. [+922, -16] I mean... at least make sure the music files are in there... the link should only be supplementary material. It makes no sense for him to be calling this an album whe all it has is a link. And as you can see from the pictures, the quality of the USB is trash too..

2. [+834, -16] He's getting all this backlash after thinking he came up with something revolutionary ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+697, -15] Did they paint the red on with a colored pencil;

4. [+69, -1] Not sure why he's giving so many people a headache with this link when he could've just put in five songs, album pictures, and lyric text files in the USB

5. [+64, -1] Let me just remind you that a normal 4 gb USB costs $5

1. [+11,738, -484] Oh... so the USB is only a link? I thought his USB had music files in them ㅋㅋㅋ I also saw other controversies like how the paint comes off; he should fix that too..

2. [+10,530, -451] It feels wrong that the paint comes off of a USB that costs $30

3. [+10,875, -698] He's selling a USB that only contains a link? ㅋㅋ Come on, there's only so much lunch money you can steal from kids like this, tsk tsk. Soon he's going to be selling his album by shooting links to his fans through their email. CD or USB, it needs to contain music files to be an album. An album with just a link? Why is he being so ridiculous as more time goes on? There's nothing that lasts forever in this world and I honestly think GD's playing with fire with his fame.

4. [+9,690, -538] A USB containing just a link... the absolute worst...

5. [+8,395, -801] Where was YG's statements during the drug scandals???

6. [+2,923, -119] A USB should not be recognized as an album if it doesn't contain music files...

7. [+2,421, -95] He's getting hate because there's more than enough room in the USB but all it contains is a link tsk tsk

8. [+2,275, -91] Please at least make sure you're coating these USBs properly before selling them
