G-Dragon Past Life Revealed: Hypnosis Session Says He Was A British Teacher Named Larry With Wife And Kids

Leave it to G-Dragon to turn a hypnotherapy session into one of the most talked-about K-Pop moments of the week. On February 28, 2026, a video titled ‘G-DRAGON: 2026 FAM MEETING VCR #2 GD’s Day (Larry’s Day)’ dropped on G-Dragon’s official YouTube channel, and within hours it had the entire internet both thoroughly entertained and genuinely moved.

In the video, G-Dragon undergoes an age regression hypnotherapy session, a process where a subject is guided back through their memories, past childhood, and ultimately into what the hypnotist frames as a past life. What G-Dragon described during that session was not what anyone expected, and that is precisely why it spread so fast.

G-Dragon Past Life: What Is The Video About?

The video forms part of G-Dragon’s 2026 FAM MEETING VCR series, a content series released alongside his fan meeting activities. The second instalment, subtitled “GD’s Day (Larry’s Day)”, focuses entirely on the hypnotherapy experience.

During the session, G-Dragon is guided back through his own childhood memories before being taken further into what the hypnotist describes as a past life. It is worth noting that this is presented as a personal and creative experience rather than a scientific or clinical process. However, what G-Dragon shares during the session is surprisingly specific, detailed, and deeply personal in places.

The video follows a previous session in which G-Dragon described experiencing a past life as a god. This second session takes a considerably more grounded and human turn.

Who Did G-Dragon Say He Was In His Past Life?

Once G-Dragon moved beyond his childhood memories and into the past life portion of the session, he began describing a very specific person and setting. Here is everything he revealed, in his own words:

On his appearance: G-Dragon described himself as “wearing a suit and having a lot of beard. It feels like England.”

On his name: He said his name was “Larry.”

On his occupation: He explained: “I think I was a teacher. I probably taught poetry or literature.”

On his location: He described the setting as feeling like Joseon, the historical Korean dynasty. He added that he had “come by ship with other teachers” and had stayed there for a long time. Despite initially wanting to stay longer, he eventually had to return to Britain.

On his popularity: He noted that he had been “quite popular” during his time in Joseon, adding with a touch of humour: “I think I was popular among Joseon women.”

On his family: He recalled having a wife and children back in Britain, saying: “I have a family. I love them.” He also mentioned that there appeared to be a war at some point during that life, which caused him to move his home.

In short, the past life G-Dragon described was that of a British literature and poetry teacher named Larry, who had travelled to Joseon during the Joseon era, built a life and reputation there, while his family remained in Britain.

The Moment That Surprised Everyone

The session took an unexpectedly emotional turn when the hypnotist asked G-Dragon directly: “Who was the person you loved most in that life?”

Given that he had just described a wife and children back in Britain, most would have predicted one of them. However, G-Dragon’s answer was immediate and simple:

“Mom.”

That single word became the most discussed moment from the entire video. It cut through the whimsical, almost theatrical framing of the past life scenario and landed as something quietly genuine. The contrast between the image of Larry, a well-travelled, popular teacher with a family, and the answer of “Mom” as his deepest love struck a chord with fans across the globe.

What Values Did G-Dragon Express?

Beyond the entertaining specifics of the Larry persona, the session also drew out some reflective personal statements from G-Dragon that felt less like hypnosis roleplay and more like sincere expression.

On the value he cherished most in that life: G-Dragon chose “sharing” as the value he considered most precious during his past life as Larry.

On regret: When asked whether he regretted anything about that life, he answered firmly: “No. I have no regrets. I tried many of the things I wanted to do.”

On what he hopes for in this life: At the end of the session, G-Dragon shared: “I hope this life can be a peaceful place. I hope it can be a life where I achieve peace through music.”

The hypnotist closed the session by noting that even in his past life, G-Dragon had been a teacher with a musical sensibility, and that his current life as a musician allows him to continue conveying that same sense of peace through a different medium.

How Did G-Dragon Handle The Session?

One detail that made the video widely shareable beyond the K-Pop community was G-Dragon’s tone throughout. He navigated the more whimsical aspects of the session, particularly the elaborate Joseon-era British teacher setup, with his characteristic dry wit and self-awareness. The video does not present itself as a serious spiritual documentary. Rather, it lets G-Dragon be both genuinely reflective and entertainingly self-deprecating in equal measure.

As one Korean entertainment outlet noted, what the session ultimately revealed was less the glamorous public persona of GD and more the inner voice of Kwon Ji-yong, a person whose stated values centre on sharing, peace, and the enduring love for his mother.

Final Thoughts

G-Dragon has always had a talent for turning the personal into the unforgettable, and this hypnotherapy session is a perfect example of that. Whether you take the past life framing literally or simply enjoy it as a creative window into how Kwon Ji-yong sees himself, the video delivers something genuinely interesting. The Larry persona is amusing on the surface, but the values G-Dragon expresses throughout the session, sharing, peace, the love of a mother, carry a sincerity that lands regardless of the unusual context around them.
