MY PROCESS

4me4you is proud to share @understitch’s latest deep dive into PEACEMINUSONE, G-Dragon’s ambitious attempt to build a Korean fashion brand with global reach.

At one point, PEACEMINUSONE looked like it could become Korea’s answer to the celebrity-led fashion brands dominating the global scene.

With G-Dragon’s influence, a devoted cult following, and a strong connection to underground streetwear culture, the potential was undeniable. But as the brand grew, so did the criticism. What once felt raw, rebellious, and authentic increasingly came across as commercial and capitalistic, raising questions about where the original spirit of PEACEMINUSONE had gone.

As its global ambitions began to lose momentum, the brand gradually shifted towards something closer to a conventional merchandise line. Yet its story remains incredibly interesting.

Watch, discover, and immerse yourself in @understitch’s exploration of PEACEMINUSONE, and the story behind one of Korea’s most intriguing fashion experiments.
