G-Dragon sang 5 songs in the rain, the organizers did not say goodbye, leaving Vietnamese fans disappointed

(Dan Tri) - On the evening of June 21, G-Dragon delivered a passionate performance in the rain at My Dinh Stadium (Hanoi), concluding the music festival "K-Star Spark in Vietnam - Mega Concert 2025" with many emotions.

The show brings together famous stars such as CL (2NE1), Tempest, tripleS, DPR IAN, in which, G-Dragon is the name that Vietnamese audiences are most looking forward to.

Since confirming his arrival in Vietnam, the male artist has created a "fever" on social networks. Stories, images, and videos related to him continuously trend.

During his reunion with Vietnamese fans, G-Dragon appeared at the end of the show, just as it was pouring rain in Hanoi . He combined a tank top with a vest and a polka dot tie, in true “K-pop king” style, making tens of thousands of spectators cheer with excitement.

G-Dragon opened with Power - a song that expresses his spiritual strength and love for music . Then came Home Sweet Home and Too Bad - two songs from his third studio album.

The performance ended with Crayon and Crooked - a hit song that was associated with the youth of millions of fans worldwide, reaching more than 260 million views on YouTube.

During the interaction between performances, G-Dragon said in Vietnamese: "Do you like it?". He bowed many times to thank the fans, continuously said "thank you" in Vietnamese and excited the audience by shouting: "Vietnam, do you love me?".

It is known that nearly 40,000 spectators flocked to My Dinh Stadium to attend the event. The atmosphere inside and outside the stadium was "hot" despite the heavy rain. Many Vietnamese stars such as Diep Lam Anh, Dam Thu Trang, Phuong Ly, Dieu Nhi, Rhyder... were also present at the music night.

However, besides the emotional sublimation, some audiences still feel regretful and dissatisfied.

Sharing with Dan Tri reporter, Hoang Hoa (33 years old, Nghe An) expressed her feelings of disappointment after the concert. As a long-time fan of G-Dragon, Hoa traveled 300km to Hanoi hoping to enjoy explosive moments with her idol.

However, she was surprised when the leader of Big Bang only sang 5 songs, and afterwards, the organizers did not go on stage to say an official farewell to the audience.

"It was only when the LED screen started running that we knew G-Dragon's performance was over," Hoa said.

Regarding the information that G-Dragon ended early because a fan tried to rush onto the stage, Mr. Pham Huy Hoang - General Director of Bao An Security Company, the event security unit - denied it.

“G-Dragon performed exactly 5 songs as planned. There was no way to stop early because the audience was too excited. The Korean side even sent security forces to support right at the stage area,” said Mr. Hoang.

Van Anh (born in 2004, Hanoi), an audience member at My Dinh Stadium, shared: "For me, the concert was quite complete. Even though it was raining, the artists still performed with all their might, and no one in the audience left in the middle. The atmosphere seemed to bring me back to my passionate youth."

However, she also pointed out some limitations in the organization: “The organizers did not announce a specific timeline, making us not know when the gate opened and when it ended. Buying items at the concert was also confusing, there was no clear information about the purchase and sale regulations, making many people confused.”

In terms of program production, she appreciated the cultural fusion factor when there were Vietnamese artists in the middle of the program and the MC was of Vietnamese origin or mixed Vietnamese. But she also frankly shared: "I think the program has not exploited the full potential of the MCs. The stage lighting is also not really impressive."

Pham The Hien also told Dan Tri reporter that if G-Dragon was "the best", the show's organizers still had many shortcomings. For example, the long queue made many viewers "cry out" or the organizers did not say goodbye, according to Hien, also made many viewers feel disappointed.

On forums, many audiences also expressed their dissatisfaction. Some complained about the small number of food stalls compared to 40,000 people, the complicated ordering process, weak light sticks, substandard sound, and especially the unreasonable queuing between ticket classes.

Some accounts commented harshly: "They call it VIP and SVIP tickets, but you have to wait in line until you're exhausted. But with CAT tickets, you can just go straight in. What's the point of waiting in line?"; "Bad sound, MC not up to par, lightstick not glowing" or "No one from the organizing committee came out to say hello".

Previously, G-Dragon arrived in Hanoi at 10pm on June 20. Hundreds of fans carrying chrysanthemum symbols came to Noi Bai airport to welcome their idol after 8 years of waiting.

G-Dragon's real name is Kwon Ji Yong, born in 1988, is a singer, rapper, music producer and top fashion icon in Korea. He was the leader of Big Bang for 13 years, leaving a strong mark in the Kpop music industry.

After a period of absence due to military service and private life turmoil, G-Dragon returned with the album Übermensch and the world tour of the same name. In Vietnam, he still proved his class by making tens of thousands of people "crazy" in just a few dozen minutes of performance.

According to experts, G-Dragon is one of the few male artists who can top digital music charts, sell large albums, and sell out concerts. His appeal transcends musical boundaries, becoming a global cultural icon.
