G-Dragon feels a little unfortunate

Big Bang's G-Dragon recently won the “STYLE ICON OF THE YEAR” of 2013 Style Icon Awards (“2013 SIA”) last October 24.

GD says, "I was blessed. I've actively performing this year, and that's a thanks to the numerous people who liked.”

However, GD feels a little unfortunate because the people notice his fashion  more  than his music. He shared, “That’s a little unlucky for me, but if that's what people think, therefore that’s it. Honestly, I focus more to my music, but my fashion style is getting more attention. It’s not bad at all, but it's my duty to exert more efforts so my music will catch more ears.”
