SEOUL, Feb. 23 (Yonhap) -- 

G-Dragon, who serves as a visiting professor in the mechanical engineering department at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, delivered a video message at the institute’s commencement ceremony, his agency Galaxy Corporation said Monday.

 

In a recorded address shown at the graduation ceremony held Thursday at KAIST’s main campus in Daejeon, the artist congratulated graduates, saying, “I sincerely congratulate you. You’ve done it, and you are people who will continue to do great things.”

 

“You are now heading into a world without answers,” he said. “It’s OK to be wrong, as long as you don’t stop. Have the courage to choose a different path from others — that courage will ultimately take you the farthest. Start freely today,” he added, encouraging graduates to embrace uncertainty and originality.

 

G-Dragon was appointed a visiting professor in KAIST’s mechanical engineering department in June 2024.
