‘Star of the stars’ G-Dragon is shedding his mysticism and getting closer to the public. Having broken his silence after seven years late last year with new songs ‘Power’ ‘Home Sweet Home’, he has been drawing attention by revealing his friendly charm on stage and in entertainment programs as soon as the new year begins.

G-Dragon chose La Defense Arena in Paris, France for his first official stage of the year. He will be performing at the charity event ‘Yellow Coin Collection 2025’ to be held at the venue on the 24th (Korean time) at the invitation of French First Lady Brigitte Macron.

This event will be attended by prominent global pop stars such as Katy Perry and John Legend. Among K-pop artists, G-Dragon, Big Bang member Taeyang, BTS J-Hope, and Blackpink Rosé have been named as performers.

After meeting their European fans, they will head straight to the broadcasting station. Their first regular entertainment program since their debut, MBC‘s ‘Good Day’, will be presented to viewers starting February 16th. ‘Good Day’ is a reality program that depicts G-Dragon’s process of collaborating with various stars as a producer and creating a special song.

It is known that G-Dragon joined hands with those he is close with in order to convey to viewers the natural charm hidden behind the other sides of top stars through the broadcast. ‘Infinite Challenge’ PD Kim Tae-ho will be directing, and stars of the same age, such as Jung Hyung-don, Hwang Kwang-hee, Kim Soo-hyun, Jung Hae-in, and Im Si-wan, will be participating as guests to add strength to ‘G-Dragon‘s first entertainment show’.

The peak of the popularity raised by his public-friendly actions will be marked by a solo regular album and concert. G-Dragon is said to be in the final stages of work to release his third regular album, which includes ‘Power’, soon. He also plans to resume his world tour in conjunction with the release of his new album. It has been 12 years since he released his second regular album ‘Coup’ in September 2013.
