GTOP and Velvet Goldmine

G-Dragon and TOP both dyed their hair mint green back in time. Someone said this might be a reference to mint green look of Brian Slade from "Velvet Goldmine." (But some people said TOP's look is a reference to Joker)

The film "Velvet Goldmine" is set in the explosive rock era of the 70s. Brian Slade was a representative figure of that time, immensely popular everywhere. In 1984, at the peak of his career, he faked his own shooting death and disappeared from the public eye. A journalist named Arthur, who was a fan of Brian's, begins to reinvestigate the incident, and the unknown aspects of the event gradually come to light. In the early 1970s, Brian was a struggling hippie folk singer but was deeply moved by the rock star Curt Wild, transforming into the androgynous pop-rock god Maxwell Demon. His glam rock style attracted teenagers worldwide. Brian and Curt developed a complex emotional entanglement. Their careers and lives were closely intertwined; they not only inspired each other musically but also fell into a romantic relationship. However, as their fame grew, both became difficult to work with, their relationship broke down, leading to his eventual downfall. In the end, it's discovered that Brian actually changed his identity completely and started living under a new persona.

Throughout the film, the emerald pin acts as a carrier of themes like singularity, sexual liberation, and otherness, framing the narrative of glam rock as more than just a music genre—it’s a cultural movement born from and celebrating queer identity and exceptional talent. We are all familiar with the emerald ring, and the duo's ring settings have almost identical patterns.

Previously, some fans speculated that the mole Ji often drew on his right cheek in 2013 might be a reference to Brian Slade's makeup in the film.

The character Brian Slade was based on David Bowie, while the prototype for Curt Wild has traces of Iggy Pop and Lou Reed. Some say this is somewhat like a semi-autobiography of David Bowie, mostly adapted from real events, but there are fictionalized parts (David Bowie himself said he didn't think the main character resembled him), but it's undeniable that the film's visuals heavily reference David Bowie and Iggy Pop, and the story draws from their tales and Lou Reed's.

Choi has repeatedly expressed his fondness for David Bowie. When David died, Choi specifically posted an Instagram story mourning him

David Bowie's sexuality was publicly known and he didn't shy away from it.David Bowie had close musical collaborations with both Iggy Pop and Lou Reed. Lou Reed happened to be the lead singer of The Velvet Underground. He was also gay, and when his parents discovered his homosexual tendencies, they sent him for electroshock therapy. The Velvet Underground was signed by Andy Warhol, who also produced the band's first album "The Velvet Underground & Nico" and personally designed the classic yellow banana album cover. (It's that big banana we're all very familiar with).

Choi really likes Andy Warhol and has repeatedly recommended his work. Back in 2007, he showed on Bigbang TV that he liked a banana [likely referring to the album cover]. And Yong posted a picture in 2012 of a rather explicit painting by Andy Warhol, and fans even found Andy Warhol's 1985 "Playboy Bunny" painting

JI ARE YOU OK???? CAUSE I'M NOT

Anon: omg jiyong was so embarrassing during the phone call lol tae and ri looked so done

@jiyong-oppar: Right???? There were sooo many subtle and not-so-subtle body language and facial expression instances that screamed gtop at me. Omgggg and did u see how possessive he seemed with Seunghyun? I could feel it through my screen. The way he wouldn’t let go of the phone and he kept it between his two hands most of the time. The conversation felt like it was only between Jiyong and Seunghyun. As if the other members weren’t even there. 

And even when he was telling the staff to call Seunghyun there was like this, (idk how to explain it) this expression on his face like he was trying VERY HARD not to smile or smirk? That’s what his face screamed. He’s such an open book, it’s actually ridiculous. And then when Seunghyun answered, his quick “Hyung, Na ya.” (It’s me.) was just soooo obvious and adorable and like idk it felt like that’s his usual greeting whenever they talk on the phone, just “It’s me.” That’s it. (ughhh /ugly crying/ otp is so perfect). Even in that, I felt his possessiveness, cuz he just took the phone and HAD to greet hyung first and in that way, so that everyone would know that hyung can just recognize him with his voice (you know what I mean?). 

And omg did u notice how he was using more formal speech than usual? I don’t think he usually speaks to him that formally but it was soooo cute that he was speaking that way. He even called him TOP-sshi at one point. 

And don’t even get me started on Tae, Ri and Dae lmfao they all looked like they were feeling so awkward and Tae literally looked soo pissed haha cuz every time he would try to interject in the conversation neither Jiyong nor Seunghyun would hear him and after a while he just gave up lmfao. And then omg when he was saying, hyung your nose is good looking, your lips are pretty, your eyebrows are pretty, too (paraphrasing), the atmosphere was so awkward in the room lmfao it was like Jiyong forgot the other members were still there and started flirting (FLIRTING???) with Seunghyun on live broadcast and all Seunghyun could do was giggle and then change the subject.

LMFAO and omg when Seunghyun was talking in his funny voice (not sure what he said) but Jiyong was the only one laughing!!! If you look at that part, Tae doesn’t even smile at that part lol he’s completely straight-faced!! Jiyong is the only one giggling!! 

And then the goodbye?? The annyeong and the bbyeong (or pyeong) after the annyeong??? Jiyong is so cute?? I feel like he does a lot of aegyo in front of Seunghyun cuz that pyeong was just tooo adorable and cute and everything perfect in this world. (Even though he says he hates doing aegyo lmfao probably bc he likes to reserve it for Seunghyun).  

I was just floored after watching that phone call. There is so much goodness in it, so much gtop goodness.
