Singer G-Dragon confessed the reason behind his frequent 'likes' on social media.
G-Dragon held his solo concert 'G-DRAGON 2025 WORLD TOUR [Ubermensch]' at the Goyang Sports Complex in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, on the 29th and 30th, marking his first solo concert in eight years.
Regarding the meaning of his recently released third studio album 'Ubermensch', G-Dragon said, "Doesn't Nietzsche sound difficult with his philosophy? Honestly, I was trying to sound profound. It just means to work hard. I also wanted to smile, so I made it like 'smile'."
G-Dragon, who revealed that he prepared 'Ubermensch' with two meanings, shared, "What I've been feeling since my comeback is that everyone seems to treat me as a subject of study, analyzing my every action, speech, gesture, and even the smallest lyrics with great care. Most of them seem to have thought about it, or maybe it's just a habit I don't realize, but it seems that as I created something, it became inherent in various places."
Regarding the recent buzz about his 'likes' on social media, G-Dragon said, "Honestly, I didn't think much about it. I just thought it wasn't bad to press 'like', and I genuinely have a lot of things I like. People might think it takes a long time because I press 'like' so much, but it doesn't actually take that long."
He continued, "I could say I'm addicted to social media 24/7. When I briefly go in, I press 'like' on those who tag me in real-time based on the algorithm. Isn't there a 'dislike' option? Honestly, even if there was a 'dislike', I think I would still press 'like'."
G-Dragon stated, "I believe that good is good, and honestly, there are some scary things when I look back at it. The image of me during 'Heartbreak' and the scenes shot while making this album are facing each other. They both feel like 'me', but they are slightly different. The image of me during 'Heartbreak' and the me preparing for this album are facing each other, and I think this is how I would look in the past, present, and future."
G-Dragon, who said, "I think I'm still in progress," mentioned about this concert, "I plan to invite everyone once more within this year. It seems like many people in Korea are feeling regret," and added, "It really feels like the first time. I wondered if I could see this view. I had no expectations for several years, and it felt greedy, but I had many thoughts, and the flower garden is really beautiful."
Meanwhile, after the Seoul concert, G-Dragon will visit eight cities in seven Asian countries, starting with Tokyo, Japan on May 10 and 11, followed by Bulacan in the Philippines, Osaka in Japan, Macau in China, Taiwan, Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, Jakarta in Indonesia, and Hong Kong.
