GD Returns - K-pop King Set to Rock Incheon Festival Before Global Tour

The King is Back for Festival Season After years of anticipation, G-Dragon is officially headlining the Madly Medley music festival scheduled for October 18-19, 2025, at Paradise City in Incheon. This announcement comes as a sweet treat for Korean music fans who've been eagerly following his Ubermensch World Tour throughout 2025. The festival promises to be a genre-bending celebration, featuring an eclectic lineup that includes Kid Milli, E Sens, Allday Project, DPR Arctic, Sik-K, QWER, and Jvcki Wai. From K-pop to indie, hip-hop to trot, it's giving serious "something for everyone" vibes - much like how Indian music festivals blend classical, Bollywood, and indie acts under one roof. World Tour Continues Its Global Domination G-Dragon's festival appearance is perfectly timed within his ongoing Ubermensch World Tour, which has been breaking records across Asia since March 2025. The tour began with sold-out shows at Goyang Stadium and has since conquered major venues including Tokyo Dome, making G-Dragon the first Korean solo artist to sell out the iconic venue multiple times. His current tour schedule shows he's performing in Kuala Lumpur over the weekend, with upcoming stops in Jakarta, Hong Kong, Newark, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Paris. The tour's commercial success has been phenomenal, with all 60,000 tickets for the Goyang shows selling out immediately, and limited-view seats disappearing within three minutes. Musical Legacy That Transcends Generations G-Dragon's influence on K-pop cannot be overstated. His hit songs like "Heartbreaker" (2009), "Crayon" (2012), "Crooked" (2013), "Untitled 2014" (2017), and "Too Bad" featuring Anderson .Paak showcase his evolution as an artist. These tracks represent different eras of his career, much like how AR Rahman's discography spans across decades while maintaining relevance. The artist's recent comeback with his third studio album "Ubermensch" in 2025 marked his first full-length release in 12 years. Singles like "Home Sweet Home" and "Power" have already generated massive buzz, proving that his creative genius remains undiminished.

G-Dragon's Bangkok Show Cancelled Due To ‘Unforeseen Circumstances'

On July 11, G-Dragon made an official statement stating that his Bangkok stop of his world tour has been cancelled. G-Dragon's highly anticipated Bangkok stop of his Ubermensch World Tour has been officially cancelled. On July 11, G-Dragon made an official statement to call off his Bangkok concert, which was originally scheduled to be held on August 2, 2025. The announcement came via the organiser, AEG Presents Asia, citing 'unforeseen circumstances" as the reason for the cancellation. The official announcement read, 'We are deeply regretful to share that, due to unforeseen circumstances, 'G-DRAGON 2025 WORLD TOUR [ÜBERMENSCH] IN BANGKOK'—originally scheduled for August 2nd—has been cancelled. We understand how much many of you were looking forward to this performance, and we sincerely apologise for the disappointment and inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your ongoing patience and support. We truly appreciate our fans in Thailand and hope to see you again very soon." View this post on Instagram A post shared by AEG Presents Asia (@aegpresentsasia) This sudden change has deepened discontent among the fans, as many of them had already raised concerns over the management of G-Dragon's tour by his agency, Galaxy, especially regarding the Thailand stop. The concerns initially stemmed from the fact that the agency-arranged G-Dragon's Thailand concert was scheduled at an outdoor venue during the hottest and most humid season of the year. Moreover, the lack of proper ticketing and seating arrangements caused anxiety and frustration among the fans. Fans decided to set out a protest rally, which was held from July 8 to July 10 near the company's headquarters in Seoul, where they demanded transparency and accountability. The video messages shown on the truck screen accused the agency of last-minute planning, failed operations, and poor presale structures. Additionally, fans have also criticised the choice of small venues in cities like Macao, Jakarta, and Melbourne, which failed to meet local demand. They also voiced that shows were often added with little notice, resulting in a three-day back-to-back performance schedule for the artist. On this note, fans raised concerns over the potential impact on G-Dragon's health and well-being. G-Dragon's agency, Galaxy, is yet to release a statement in response to the cancellation and fan protests. Despite the Bangkok tour getting cancelled, G-Dragon is still scheduled to perform in Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, and Paris as a part of his ongoing world tour. view comments First Published: July 11, 2025, 13:42 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Is G-Dragon Dating Lee Joo Yeon? BIGBANG Member's Agency Responds To Rumours

Last Updated: Galaxy Corporation released a statement saying that the dating rumours are 'not true'. Once again, BIGBANG's G-Dragon is making headlines, not for his music, but for his personal life. The K-pop idol got caught in dating rumours with former After School member Lee Joo Yeon for the fifth time. Their online activity sparked buzz about their relationship. This time, eagle-eyed fans noticed the background of a photo posted by Lee Joo Yeon, which seemed to resemble the interior of G-Dragon's home. This was enough to get the rumour mill running again. And, like always, G-Dragon's agency, Galaxy Corporation, responded to the latest murmurs. They denied any such involvement of their artist with Lee Joo Yeon. In a statement released on Friday, June 6, as quoted by Soompi, the agency stated, 'We are informing you that the dating rumours that have been spreading about G-Dragon and Lee Joo Yeon are not true. Thank you." Rumours about G-Dragon and Lee Joo Yeon's romantic relationship first started in 2017 due to a few videos that they had shot together. Those were uploaded to the former After School member's account on an app called Kwai. In the clips, G-Dragon and Lee Joo Yeon mimicked some lines from SBS' variety show called Oh! My Baby. When those clips surfaced on social media, fans immediately started speculating that the two were more than just friends and they had something romantic going on. Later that year, fresh rumours claimed that the two vacationed together in Hawaii, which was eventually denied by their agencies. Back then, the BIGBANG member's agency, YG Entertainment, clarified that the pair was in Hawaii for an event, which was joined by their other acquaintances as well. In 2018, G-Dragon and Lee Joo Yeon were back in the spotlight. This time, Dispatch reported that the two celebrities spent some quality time together on Jeju Island, where they stayed for four days. A year later, a short video posted by Lee Joo Yeon sparked the buzz once again, and it also featured the BIGBANG member. The two were playing with a filter on some photo application. She quickly deleted the video upon realisation. The agencies of both the artists have continued to deny the rumours. Speaking of G-Dragon's work front, the 36-year-old idol, whose real name is Kwon Ji Yong, released his third studio album, titled Ubermensch, in February. It was his first album in 12 years, as well as his first since leaving YG Entertainment. After releasing the album, he embarked on a tour, Ubermensch World Tour, which began in March in South Korea and is scheduled to end in August in Hong Kong. As for Lee Joo Yeon, after she left her group After School, she focused more on acting projects. She was seen in Reply 1994, The Undateables, Oh! My Ghost, and others.
