Breathe (Korean: 브리드) is a song recorded by the South Korea singer G-Dragon, released as the second single off from his debut album. While the single did not chart as strongly as its predecessor, it manage to chart within the Top 20 for the artist.

Amid controversy of the singer's previous single being accused of plagiarism, G-Dragon quickly released his follow-up single, "Breathe," to promote his album. The song managed to chart within the Top 20 of the Korean music chart. The lyrics, which portray the singer not wanting to wake up from a dream, was complimented by a writer for the Newsen as "strong" and "impressive."

Similar to "Heartbreaker"'s music video, "Breathe" showcased the singer dancing against a white backdrop. The video itself was given a 20-second teaser at the end of "Heartbreaker"'s music video before its official release. Currently, the video has drawn over 3 million views on YouTube. At the end of the music video, a short teaser of his next song "A Boy" was shown.

While performing the song "Breathe" for his Shine-A-Light concert, G-Dragon was alleged to have "made sexually provocative gestures" when he reportedly grind against his dancer against a propped-up bed. Several fans even claimed to have heard moanings. Although G-Dragon has denied the allegations, the Korean Ministry of Health, Welfare and Family Affairs has asked government prosecutors to investigate if he or YG Entertainment have violated laws on obscene performances in his concert. If found guilty, he may be charge with a fine and up to one year in prison. Lucky a few months later he was claimed innocent.
