G-Dragon created a memorable and hilarious moment at the SBS Gayo Daejeon 2024 on December 25, 2024. Towards the end of the show, after delivering his performance, the star dramatically lay down on the stage, seemingly exhausted. As idols began making their way onto the stage for the closing ceremony, he stayed sprawled out, only getting up once the stage became too crowded.
Fans found the moment both amusing and iconic, with many teasingly attributing it to his age, joking that he needed extra recovery time. His T-shirt became another highlight of the show, which said:
"Menace to society"
Social media platforms, especially X, were flooded with creative and humorous comments, cementing this as one of the night's most talked-about moments.
“They left the menace to society just like that,” a fan creatively remarked regarding the tshirt he was wearing.
“I can imagine Hoshi running up and performing the fake cpr chest compression moves like idols love to do for comedy,” a fan anticipated a joint comedic performance.
“G-Dragon lying on the stage while the other idols came out for the closing ceremony is such a hilarious and iconic moment!” a fan exclaimed.
“Unbothered as usual, only legends can do that,” a fan commented.
Other fans hilariously called him "lazy," for laying down after his performance.
“It was hilarious, G-Dragon just chillin, Classic,” a fan stated.
“Give this uncle a break,” a fan coined comically.
“He’s too lazy to get up,” another fan remarked.
G-Dragon gives a mix of moments to the fans during SBS Gayo Daejeon
G-Dragon, a member of the legendary K-pop group BIGBANG and an acclaimed solo artist, made a grand return to the stage of SBS Gayo Daejeon after an eight-year hiatus. His last performance at the event was in 2016 alongside BIGBANG, making his solo appearance on December 25, 2024, even more special.
The 2024 SBS Gayo Daejun, held at the Incheon Inspire Arena, was hosted by IVE's Ahn Yu-jin, NCT's Doyoung, and TXT's Yeonjun. G-Dragon was the final performer of the night and was introduced with great enthusiasm by the hosts, who hailed him as:
"G-Dragon, the irreplaceable, living legend who dominates the stage with his presence alone."
His performance began with a dynamic slideshow showcasing memorable moments from his idol journey, which left fans feeling both nostalgic and energized. He then performed his two iconic tracks, Power and Crooked, delivering an energetic performance.
However, it was what followed that became a highlight. Exhausted from his performance, the star lay down on the stage as the event transitioned to its closing ceremony.
As idols from various groups walked past him to join the finale, he remained there, creating a mix of hilarity and charm that fans couldn’t stop talking about. Many joked about his playfulness and others acclaimed it as his love for the stage and performing.
This appearance marked the K-pop idol's second major year-end festival performance following his reunion with bandmates Taeyang and Daesung at the 2024 MAMA Awards on November 23 at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. During that event, BIGBANG performed their iconic hit BANG BANG, thrilling fans worldwide.
G-Dragon's return to the spotlight has been nothing short of exciting for fans, and his performances continue to remind them why he’s considered one of K-pop’s most influential artists.
