The latest collaboration between the duo will release a Kwondo makeover alongside four apparel options. The site introduces the collection:

"What can't G-Dragon do? As a global K-pop superstar and creative director of his own brand, Peaceminusone, he knows how to maximize his own potential. This collection is no exception.
