- GD was once a protege of SM Entertainment for 5 years. He signed for them when he was 5. Because the intensity of the training schedule there was seems irregular, SME was confused whether to make him a soloist or get him into a boyband. Beside, they also confused about the character they want to tag into GD and those made GD uncertain about his future with SME. Moreover, at the time he heard that he was planned to be an supplementary member of Shinhwa, not their official member. Those all made GD became more doubtful about his future. At last he resigned SME. And when we was at his friend’s house, he listened to rap and ever since he learned freestyle rap, and until then he signed for YG Entertainment.
