BIGBANG’s G-Dragon is once again making headlines, this time for his social media activity. What started as a casual post from a concert turned into a contentious topic among K-pop fans, leaving them divided over the incident. The incident unfolded after the 36-year-old South Korean rapper and singer posted and then deleted an Instagram story related to TWICE’s Sana.
The moment unfolded after the globally popular English band Coldplay’s recent concert in Seoul as part of their ongoing Music of the Spheres World Tour. The event drew a star-studded crowd and featured surprise performances, including a collaboration between Coldplay and TWICE on their track We Pray. Among the audience was BIGBANG’s G-Dragon, who, like many other concertgoers, shared a glimpse of the show on his Instagram account.
One story in particular, however, caught everyone’s attention. In the short clip where the K-pop idol showed the concert crowd and the stage, G-Dragon particularly tagged TWICE’s Sana and added a shocked face emoji. While the BIGBANG member soon deleted his post, many took screenshots of it and shared them on other social media platforms.
Soon, people began sharing their opinions on the matter. Some questioned why G-Dragon would specifically tag Sana instead of the group’s Instagram handle, while others felt that his gesture was inappropriate and seemingly uncomfortable for the TWICE member. Many also argued that, given G-Dragon’s past social media behaviour involving other K-pop female idols, this kind of public interaction could lead to unnecessary rumours and scrutiny.
Taking to X, one user said, “This man seems to me to be a vulture with women… he doesn’t seem reliable at all. Stay away, Sana.” Another added, “It’s true. I wonder why his “mistakes” of handling Instagram always purposefully the popular one. BTS V, Jennie Karina, Hyunbin (in Crash Landing era), Karina, Kim Mingyu and now Twice’s Sana.”
“JAJAJAJAJAJA That girl must have screamed and fainted when she saw Gdragon mention her in his stories. Don’t be ridiculous!!!” wrote a different user.
Meanwhile, many also rushed to defend the BIGBANG member, with one fan saying, “You’re talking like Sana ain’t a grown woman who can choose which the people to be related to.” Someone else penned, “Broooo??? He just tag his friend like normal people do, who hurt u???”
As of now, neither G-Dragon nor TWICE’s Sana have reacted to the incident.
