On March 29, G-Dragon held his “G-DRAGON 2025 WORLD TOUR [Übermensch]” at the Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi Province.

Originally scheduled to begin at 6:30 PM, the concert was delayed due to bad weather and strong winds. A notice about the delay was posted at 1:00 PM, five and a half hours before showtime. Coupang Play posted on its official SNS, “We ask for your understanding and cooperation for the safety of the audience and smooth operation of the concert. We will do our best to ensure a safe viewing experience.”

As a result, the VIP soundcheck entrance was moved from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM, the soundcheck itself from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM, and general admission for R, S and A sections from 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM. The main concert was announced to be delayed by 30 minutes, set to begin at 7:00 PM.

However, by 7:30 PM, the concert still hadn’t started. Despite the temperature dropping to -2°C due to the lingering cold, G-Dragon’s side gave no further updates about the delay.

Perhaps recognizing the growing tension, at 7:30 PM, the team abruptly began playing the music videos for “DRAMA“, “POWER” and “TOO BAD (feat. Anderson .Paak)” on the giant screen. This backfired as the audience responded with loud boos throughout the venue.

The actual concert finally started at exactly 7:43 PM, a delay of 1 hour and 13 minutes from the original time and 43 minutes even after the announced postponement.

After opening the show, G-Dragon greeted fans “How have you been? I’m really shy, so if you don’t cheer loudly, I’ll sulk and leave. So let’s both try our best“, making no mention of the lengthy delay.

On March 30, G-Dragon’s agency, Galaxy Corporation, explained that his concert on the 29th was delayed due to severe weather, including strong winds, snow, and freezing temperatures. For safety reasons, the performance was postponed twice.

G-Dragon monitored conditions throughout the day and participated in a soundcheck. The agency stressed the delays were made to avoid risks to the audience. He is set to perform again on the 30th at Goyang Sports Complex.
