G-Dragon expands global influence

DƯƠNG HƯƠNG |

G-Dragon (Big Bang) had his first official performance in the Middle East since his debut, attracting about 20,000 spectators.

Recently, Korean singer G-Dragon (Big Bang) took on the role of main artist at the "Krazy Super Concert" program held at Dubai Media City Amphitheatre, United Arab Emirates.

This is his first official stage in the Middle East, which is important in the industry as it marks the expansion of operations outside North America and Europe to a new market.

The music night opened with "Intro", immediately stirring up the atmosphere with "Power". He continued to perform hits such as "Home Sweet Home", "Crayon", "Too bad" and "Crooked", creating moments when tens of thousands of spectators chanted along.

Especially, in the "Crooked" performance, fans overcome language and nationality barriers, and harmonize to create a unified sea of sound, showing the strength of the global fandom.

According to media reports, G-Dragon shows professional control and calmness when performing. He actively interacts with local audiences between songs, increasing connection with fans, while his restrained but attractive demeanor further affirms his position as a main artist.

The performance in Dubai is not simply a performance schedule abroad, but also a clear proof of the expansion of the global mark of Kpop.

At this event, G-Dragon chose a brick-red tailored jacket combined with a pink shirt inside and black wide-leg pants, subtly evoking the color of the Dubai desert.

The sophisticated shape and color storytelling have shown the connection of the Big Bang leader with local audiences, once again consolidating the position of a global fashion icon capable of connecting space and story through style.

Many major international media outlets also reported on G-Dragon's performance in Dubai. Billboard mentioned the global expansion of the concert series and emphasized the male singer's role as the main artist.

Forbes introduced his debut in the Middle East as an example of a leading Kpop artist expanding market influence. UAE media outlets such as Gulf News, Time Out Dubai, Khaleej Times and The National also simultaneously reported, showing strong interest in G-Dragon's first stage in the Middle East.

Recently, G-Dragon won a double award for Best Song for "Too Bad" and the Artist of the Year award at the 33rd Hanteo Music Awards.

These awards are based on global album and digital data in real time, showing that his influence comes not only from the fan community but is also evidenced by actual consumption data.

This recognition, right after the concert in Dubai, further confirms that G-Dragon's global influence is continuing to be strengthened by measurable achievements.

In the past time, G-Dragon has organized his first solo fan-meeting series since his debut, in Seoul (Korea) from February 6-8 and in Yokohama (Japan) from February 13-15. He will continue to meet fans in Bangkok (Thailand) on February 21-22.
