Chanel Responds To Official Ambassador G-Dragon’s Drug Controversy

Chanel addressed the drug scandal involving official ambassador G-Dragon.

Chanel, a luxury brand, stated cautiously on October 26 that they were aware of the situation with G-Dragon’s lawsuit. But at this point, we are unable to provide a position.” The announcement came after it was revealed that G-Dragon had been charged with breaking the Narcotics Control Act after being booked by the crime investigation team of the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency.

The BIGBANG member’s attendance at Chanel events has come under investigation because there are rumors that, during the ‘Chanel x Frieze Cocktail Reception’ in Gangnam this past September, he may have been under the influence of drugs. Since G-Dragon is well-known for wearing Chanel apparel on a daily basis, the event is predicted to damage the brand’s reputation. It’s anticipated that he will have to pay damages if a police investigation reveals that his drug allegations are valid.

Since 2016, G-Dragon has represented the company as its first Asian ambassador.
