Galaxy Corporation has stated via Nate News, that the foundation's objective aligns with G-Dragon's mission of removing society prejudice and using his music as a tool for inspiration. Their initial projects will focus on fighting drug abuse and supporting the rehabilitation of drug addicted youth.
Choi Yong-ho, CEO of Galaxy Corporation said, "The foundation is established on the strong will of Kwon Ji-yong to create a society free of prejudice through his music, and will conduct activities accordingly. The first project of the foundation will focus on drug eradication and treatment activities for addicted youth."
G-Dragon has also released a letter on his social media, sharing his plans to raise awareness about drug addiction danger, urging efforts for drug abolition.
The BIGBANG member also plans to select experts in medical health, public policy and welfare, and culture to join JUSPEACE Foundation's advisory committee. Once the committee is formed, it will set the direction for the foundation's public interest activities.
In October 2023, G-Dragon was investigated for alleged drug use, which he firmly denied.
