First of all KYAAA IT'S GD!!!
Secondly, this is overall a pretty good watercolour painting. But as you have requested for a Critique here are some suggestions for you to consider the next time you paint:
1. The facial features are quite accurate and I love the shading you have done with the glasses but the top of the ear and the lips look a bit out of proportion. To substantiate what I have just said, glasses usually sit on the nook of the ear and so the end of it is usually covered by the tip of the ear. In this painting, the top and side of the ear is actually looking quite flat which makes the ear look slightly less realistic. I know that most artists can look thin but as the lips look slightly too angled, his jaw looks too short. That is not really an issue though.
2. The adam apple. Even though his neck is stretched back and extended, you have to remember that his adam apple will still show quite prominently, especially because his neck is stretched back and extended.
3. Although GD's hairstyle is light coloured, the way you coloured in between the hairs made it look like he has gone slightly bald.
4. His eyebrows, the one further away should be thinner. No?
5. If he is wearing a collared shirt on the inside then the end of the collar should be shorter and you should be able to see it. If not then the back of his shirt should not be so dented. He is either slouching or he is not.
Even though I occasionally listen to him and like his songs. I don't really follow K-Pop that closely so I'm not sure if this was referenced to a picture. But if it's not kudos to you because I quite like him. Even if I didn't know who GD was, I would still think he's pretty hot.

It was a reference to a picture (i just changed up what shirt he is wearing). I felt like I got it pretty spot on when I painted it but there may be a few very minor details off because this is only my third watercolor portrait (ever). I just did it for practice and for fun. As for the hair, i know it kind of looks weird because I didnt know what to do with it since in the photo its pretty whiteish tan and you cant see alot of detail, I also was limited on the amount of watercolor pencils that I have so I didnt have a good color to do the hair with. Since i had already gone with making his skin and everything more white (also didnt have the right color), i made the hair lighter also. Here is the photo i used if you'd like to take a look.

You do have the facial structure quite spot on
I know what you mean, I just hope you don't think I'm attacking you. I was just picking up on some things.
No problem. Don't take it to heart too much. They're just things to think about
