While G-Dragon has long been recognized for his artistry and stage presence rather than purely for his vocal ability, this latest controversy has reignited discussions about his live performances. Some fans have defended him, citing potential health issues affecting his voice, while others argue that his vocals have always been questionable.

- “The people who paid to attend must be shocked.”
- “Wow… This is shocking, lol. But this happened last year, too? I didn’t watch Gayo Daejeon, so I had no idea.”
- “What do I do? I can’t stop laughing. He seriously looks like a drunk person…”
- “Even when he was popular with BIGBANG, I never thought he was a great singer. The songs were good, though, lol.”
- “It was bad at Gayo Daejeon, too…”
- “What’s up with the atmosphere?”
- “He’s not singing. He’s just acting like a drunk mess. Wasn’t he pretty good at live performances before…?”
As videos continue to spread, it remains to be seen whether G-Dragon or his agency will address the backlash. Meanwhile, he also gained attention for the lengthy delay his concert faced earlier today.
