G-Dragon’s copyright income from songs was confirmed to be an exaggeration.

An official from the Korean Music Copyright Association said in a phone call with Star Daily News, “It’s not true that G-Dragon is ranked #1 in terms of copyright income. This matter became such a big topic that it was researched and confirmed that this claim is exaggerated.”

He continued, “Absolute information concerning copyrights cannot be disclosed because there’s no way of knowing. the specific income ranking of copyright holders. “

Last May on Mnet’s “Beatles Code” Seungri revealed, “G-Dragon is currently considered #1 in the Copyright Association. He even ranks higher than composer Cho Young Soo.”

In the end it was found out that Cho Young Su has 426 songs registered under the Copyright Association, 4 times more than G-Dragon who has 107.

lol maknae... but imo 107 is still a lot considering he's only what, 23? 24?

Well in and of itself this doesn't tell us anything about income either.

I guess it's considered an omg amazing thing because GD is more well-known as an idol singer? IDK who Cho Youngsu is.

Yeah, he's 4 years older than me but at my age, he was already the leader of bigbang while i work in a nursing home for the summer.
I hate those idols being my age, barely older, or worse younger. It makes me think about my life in a way i'd rather not think about yet xD

G-dragon is only 22! He is barely an adult but I always forget cuz he seems so old (in a good way). ^^
and lol this is why Big Bang always gets nervous when Seungri goes out. xD

I wonder who's #1? Maybe Teddy or JYP as they write lots of hit songs and usually don't have to share the credits with many different people (GD usually co-composes song with someone else and and that someone else usually arranges song). Anyhow I doubt it's Cho Young Su as as he hasn't probably written hits for ages (however in the past when his songs were hits, he definitely has earned more through copyrights because albums sold so much more then) unless South Korean radios are really into playing old hits.

Have you seen his airport and recording studio pictures this week?
I don't find him that appealing either but he was looking damn fine!

if SR was referring to income, and not the number of songs, then he could be right though

don't know any of Cho Youngsu's songs, but if they're really really old, then GD might technically be earning more in royalties right now.

From: [identity profile] frostedpopcorn.livejournal.com
This, and also the fact that GD is still so YOUNG, if he keeps up this rate of production he will also surpass CY in numbers of song registration. Not that it really matters imo, though I think this is already a huge accomplishment and he is probably rolling money either way.

someone provide video for what seungri said please. I only remember him saying that gd had a lot of copyright, not that he was number 1.
