After a lengthy hiatus, K-pop icon G-Dragon has made a triumphant return in 2025, cementing his status as a powerhouse in Korean music. His third studio album, Übermensch, released in February, topped charts and drew critical acclaim worldwide. This momentum continued with the launch of his global Übermensch tour in March, captivating fans with his signature style and stage presence.
Adding to his impressive year, G-Dragon debuted his new reality show Good Day and was appointed as a special professor at KAIST, where he will teach entertainment-related courses and share insights on Korea’s cultural industries.
A Historic Milestone at the Sphere
On 28 April 2025, G-Dragon made history as the first Asian artist to feature at the Sphere, the cutting-edge Las Vegas venue known for its immersive visual experiences. His appearance is part of Hana Financial Group’s On Spirit, One Team campaign, where he also served as creative director. The campaign film, blending G-Dragon’s symbolic white chrysanthemum with Hana’s green palette, is screened 42 times daily on the Sphere’s colossal LED display through 4 May.
This landmark moment not only showcases G-Dragon’s global influence but also elevates K-pop’s international profile, setting a new benchmark for Asian artists in global arenas.
Sphere: Redefining Live Entertainment
Since its opening in late 2023, the $2 billion Sphere has rapidly become a landmark in Las Vegas, redefining live performances with its state-of-the-art visuals and acoustics. U2 inaugurated the venue with a record-breaking 40-show residency, while the Backstreet Boys are set to follow with their Into the Millennium concerts in summer 2025.
With its immersive capabilities, the Sphere is transforming how audiences experience music, offering artists a visionary platform to engage global fans in new, dynamic ways.
Following his Sphere debut, G-Dragon will continue his Übermensch world tour with a major concert at Tokyo Dome on 10 May 2025.
