Fans of K-pop band Big Bang gather for G-Dragon's military discharge

G-Dragon, 31, whose real name is Kwon Ji-yong, completed almost two years of mandatory military service and was discharged at the headquarters of South Korean Army’s Ground Operations Command in Yongin, southeast of Seoul.

He had served about a year and eight months of mandatory military service applicable to all men in South Korea, which is still technically at war with North Korea. About 500 Chinese, Japanese and other Asian fans, some of whom waited outside the military base overnight in chilly weather, cheered as G-Dragon emerged from the building around 8am.

After brief remarks, he entered a black van and departed as fans took photos, waved and followed the van. He then held an event nearby with 3,000 fans.

Kwon Ji Yong is back!
