Hip-hop artist G-Dragon has released his first live concert album "Shine a Light," according to his agency YG Entertainment on Tuesday.

The album is composed of G-Dragon's songs from his solo concert "Shine a Light," held last December with 24,000 fans in attendance.

The record also contains a bonus CD of G-Dragon's hit song "Heartbreaker" from last year, re-recorded with new rap and lyrics and a featuring by U.S. rapper Flo Rida.

The song had formerly been at the center of heated controversy when G-Dragon became accused of having plagiarized "Right Round" to create "Heartbreaker."

Newly arranged versions of G-Dragon's songs from his solo record and the compilation CD of "2001 Korea's Hip Hop Flex" featuring tracks "I Am 13," "G-Dragon," "Fine Gentlemen," "Storm" and a solo version of "Lies" are also included in the concert album.

G-Dragon, whose real name is Kwon Ji-young, is the leader of his five-member boy band Big Bang, who were discovered and trained by YG Entertainment.

Meanwhile, Big Bang is set to return to the Korean music scene as a group this summer after successfully wrapping up their activities in Japan.
