Singer G-Dragon’s concert saw the reunion of Taeyang and Daesung, completing the “full formation” of Big Bang. They hinted at Big Bang’s fiery “coming-of-age” ceremony for their 20th anniversary next year, fueling anticipation for their comeback.
G-Dragon’s world tour ‘Übermensch’ encore, ‘2025 WORLD TOUR [Übermensch] IN SEOUL: ENCORE,’ presented by Coupang Play, took place at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro-gu, Seoul, on the 14th. G-Dragon met with Korean fans from the 12th through encore performances, with the 14th being the final of the three-day concert.
Opening with “Power,” G-Dragon raised the energy by performing “Home Sweet Home.” There was a special surprise as Big Bang members Taeyang and Daesung appeared as guests.
The two members returned during the encore with Big Bang’s “We Like 2 Party,” receiving enthusiastic cheers. G-Dragon warmly welcomed them by saying, “The friends are here,” and they responded with “We are Big Bang.”
After sharing their recent activities, G-Dragon expressed his affection for the members: “Even when apart, we always check on each other’s condition and wellbeing.”
Daesung mentioned, “I was worried about your voice. Watching the performances on Friday and Saturday, your voice sounds like it has become younger by 7 to 8 years.” G-Dragon acknowledged the recent live vocal controversies, noting his own concerns about his voice.
Taeyang added, “It was the first time Jiyong asked me something like this: ‘How do you take care of your voice?’ His nickname used to be ‘Nightingale Kwon.'” G-Dragon humorously remarked, “I didn’t even know how to manage my voice.”
During the performance, G-Dragon mentioned, “Next year, our group Big Bang will turn 20,” hinting at a comeback. He noted that “Big Bang at 20 will have a coming-of-age ceremony. Younger fans should grow up fast; it might be 19+ only.”
Big Bang is set to perform at ‘Coachella,’ America’s largest music festival, next April. G-Dragon, who has been active in various fields this year, showed his enthusiasm for fresh activities with Big Bang.
The three members also entertained fans with their engaging banter, showcasing their friendship and chemistry, followed by a performance of “A Fool Only Tears” from their debut album, exciting the crowd once again.
Meanwhile, G-Dragon wrapped up his ‘G-DRAGON 2025 WORLD TOUR [Übermensch],’ which began in March in Goyang, South Korea, covering 16 cities and 36 performances worldwide, including Tokyo, Manila, Osaka, Macau, Sydney, Melbourne, Taipei, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Hong Kong, Hanoi, New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Paris, France.
