From December 12th to 14th G-DRAGON brought his global Superman World Tour to conclude brilliantly with three encore concerts at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul. The concerts were not just a musical show: they became a real meeting of the entertainment industry, with some dubbing on the final evening. “K-Showbiz Festival”.
According to Galaxy Corporation, the world tour attracted a staggering 825,000 fans in total. The encores in Seoul alone welcomed 56,100 participants over three evenings, consolidating everything Superman as the most expansive tour of G-DRAGON’s career and a major milestone that reaffirms the King of K-pop’s enduring charisma.
An evening where half of K-Showbiz showed up
The third night turned into a visual roll call of Korea’s entertainment elite. From A-list actors and veteran performers to next-generation idols, the star-studded guest list reflects G-DRAGON’s deeply rooted influence and far-reaching network built over two decades in the spotlight.
Lee Min Ho, a long-time supporter, showed up once again to cheer on his dear friend. Their unwavering camaraderie over the past year, through both public and personal accomplishments, has come to symbolize the mutual respect between two of Korea’s most iconic stars.
BTS’ Jung Kook also made headlines with his rare public appearance following dating rumors with aespa’s Winter. Featured alongside j-hope, the pair joined SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu and Hoshi, creating a moment of unity between the K-pop generations. Fans joked that Jung Kook was “sneaking out” alone, as no aespa members were spotted at the event.
Adding even more heart to the moment was Hoshi, who, despite currently serving in the military, used his precious day off to participate. Known as a longtime fan of G-DRAGON, his dedication underlined the genuine admiration younger idols have for the legendary artist.
The BIGBANG reunion lights up the dome
The finale reached its peak of emotion when Taeyang and Daesung appeared on stage as surprise guests. The trio performed BIGBANG classics, including the 20-year-old hit A fool of tearssparking explosive applause from the fans. It marked a rare onstage reunion, fueling excitement for the group’s planned return in 2026.
K-media reported that BIGBANG is expected to return to Coachella in April 2026, and G-DRAGON, after completing his solo tour, will now focus on group activities and music production. The moment was not only the culmination of the concert, but a deeply personal reminder of the group’s legacy and future.
