Although G-Dragon and Taeyang had collaborated multiple times with one another for their solo works, they finally officially collaborated in 2014.
This came about as the subunit ‘GD X TAEYANG’, with their song ‘GOOD BOY’. The track reached number one on Billboard’s World Digital Songs chart, making ut the third time for a Korean act to top the chart at the time, following PSY and 2NE1.
