For G-Dragon fans at Bukit Jalil last weekend, the party started even before the concerts at Axiata Arena. Almost 25,000 loyal fans of the superstar singer flooded the area during the weekend, and it was party from the word go.
In fact, fans were already at the stadium from as early as 1pm and many even came to the venue wearing fashion ware that G-Dragon is famous for.
Fans were not disappointed as G-Dragon made a triumphant return to Kuala Lumpur with a two-day performance that bedazzled his fans and many were left chanting for more.
There were more cheers as G-Dragon even tried to speak Malay with the fans and even said "Saya gembira jumpa korang (I'm delighted to meet you guys)" and then of course Malaysia "mantap (superb)". He also added that he is "Syok gila (immensely happy)" and "you all enjoy tak (everyone enjoying yourself right)".
It was an F1 speed show with a lot of thrills and spills as fans were immensely enjoying themselves during the two-plus-hour show.
In short, the show presented by Hong Leong, the 2025 World Tour [Übermensch] simply dazzled Malaysian fans with a visually stunning and incredibly powerful vocal performance that proved the K-pop icon’s continued global influence.
Promoted by AEG Presents, TME Live, Star Planet, and Top Top Production, the tour attracted fans from across Malaysia and neighbouring countries. Over 20,000 attendees packed the arena across the two days, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Among the songs that were performed at the shows were fan favourites "POWER, HOME SWEET HOME, BONAMANA, TAKE ME, DRAMA, GYRO-DROP" which had almost all the attendees singing along to his tunes.
Fans even turned up with the singer's most popular items at his concert - the Day-G (GD official daisy-shaped light stick), waving it away for almost all his songs.
On top of that, fans were also roaring in approval as even former Olympic and Malaysian badminton star Lee Chong Wei and his family were in attendance for the concert.
During the concert, fans even went wilder when G-Dragon made a special announcement when he said his super group Big Bang is also getting back together next year.
"You know what, guys, next year, is Big Bang's 20th anniversary celebration. And we will be back together," said G-Dragon as the fans were celebrating wildly at the venue.
Like G-Dragon, the group Big Bang is also among the super icons in the K-pop industry and has many international super hits during their long music career.
"It has been an incredible journey, thus far. And I hope it keeps getting better in the time to come. It is a very special year for Big Bang next year and it is going to be even a bigger party the coming year," said G-Dragon.
Fans at the concert were just immensely happy with the concert experience.
One fan, Ameera Filzah, said: "He’s called the King of K-pop for a reason. The stage design was mind-blowing, with insane visuals, special effects that felt like something out of a dream. It wasn’t just a concert; it was a journey through every chapter of his solo career. From the iconic hits to the deeper, emotional tracks. It was nostalgic, electric, and honestly, one of the most fun and unforgettable nights of my life.”
Another fan, Sindhu Vijayan, said the whole concert was a special moment as many fans managed to witness his comeback live.
"You could see how happy and full of energy he was. His stage presence had us all under a spell. You could feel how much he truly appreciates his fans. I still can’t get over it," said Sindhu.
I loved the visual and emotional journey he took us on.
"He even opened up about his past struggles, and you could sense how deeply personal this return is for him, like he’s finally reconnecting with his purpose and passion as an artist. It felt like he was free to be his most authentic self, and the fans are so ready to stand by him every step of the way. The entire show was stunning from start to finish — powerful, emotional, inspiring.”
In short, G-Dragon had promised nothing but the best for his fans, but he also delivered a spectacular show that his immensely happy fans will not forget for a very long time.
