Paris Gets the G-DRAGON Treatment
After setting stages ablaze in the U.S., G-DRAGON made a triumphant stop in Paris, continuing what’s shaping up to be one of the most talked-about global tours of the year. At the La Défense Arena—a venue usually reserved for French presidential charity events—he wowed the crowd with a performance that was equal parts fashion runway and dance club.
Chanel Suit Meets K-pop Swagger
G-DRAGON hit the stage in a custom-made suit by a top Chanel designer, looking every bit the haute couture heartthrob. Performing a revamped version of “TOO BAD (feat. Anderson .Paak),” he quickly had fans on their feet and phones in the air.
But the real showstopper? A jaw-dropping dance break sampling Lady Marmalade—a funky French-inspired remix that felt like Paris and Seoul collided onstage. “GD turned that arena into a fashion-forward rave,” joked one fan on social media. “All that was missing was croissants being thrown from the ceiling.”
Not Just a Concert—A Global Cultural Moment
G-DRAGON’s tour is proving to be more than a series of sold-out shows—it’s a full-on Hallyu wave tsunami. From Asia to America and now Europe, he’s reminding everyone that he’s not just a K-pop idol—he’s a walking cultural movement.
Paris marks a major milestone: the show filled every seat at La Défense Arena—without a single guest artist on the bill. His stage presence, meticulous production, and global appeal were more than enough to carry the night.
Next Up: The World (Again)
The Paris spectacle is just one stop on the singer’s sprawling world tour. After hitting Korean stages, G-DRAGON has already conquered Tokyo, Macau, Sydney, Taipei, Los Angeles, and more. Coming next are encore concerts in Osaka (October 20 and 21), followed by Taipei, Hanoi, and of course, Seoul.
With each stop, G-DRAGON isn’t just delivering concerts—he’s exporting a piece of Korea’s pop culture, stitched expertly in designer suits and bound with beats. K-pop might be the vehicle, but G-DRAGON is definitely in the driver’s seat.
