"WHY WAS IT SO SHORT" - Fans disappointed following 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon's stage and timings for BIGBANG G-Dragon's performance at the music festival

On Wednesday, December 25, the 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon took place at the Inspire Arena in Incheon, South Korea. The event is an annual music festival and features performances from several K-pop groups and soloists. One of the artists seated on the performance lineup was BIGBANG's G-Dragon.

Given that the idol has only recently returned to the industry as a soloist after a seven-year hiatus, fans were naturally looking forward to the K-pop idol's performance at the 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon.

However, many fans were left disappointed as they had to wait around three hours for his performance as it was pushed to the last.

Additionally, the scheduled stage for the K-pop idol was no more than five minutes, which left the viewers frustrated and dissatisfied. Since many fans had high expectations for G-Dragon's stage, they were not happy with the end result and stated SBS should have better organized his performance and given him a longer stage.

Here are a few fan reactions on the same:

"GOOD THING I DIDNT SUB SBS, WHY WAS IT SO SHORT"

"B*tch thats not even the appetizer bruh we're stolen af" said a fan on X

"I paid SBS membership just to watch his 5min performance" added another fan

"They should have started with him so we didn't have to wait" commented a netizen

"to make it even worst, I paid for the membership to get the best quality, waited 3 hours, for 7 mins performance. he still slayed though, it’s not enough for us" stated a fan

"Why did they leave him last? I mean, I don't understand. I waited a long time to see him. At least they should have given him more time. I wanted to see his fire on stage." added an X user

"If I had the timing right, I would have just tuned in 10 minutes before. I sat through a lot of &*)(@ before I got to GD." commented a netizen

"He was the most senior artist and the headliner,u should have done your own thing and should have joined few hours later." said another X user
