From October 12th to 14th, G-DRAGON held the 'G-DRAGON 2025 World Tour Übermensch in Seoul Encore Concert' at the Gocheok Sky Dome. This Seoul performance was the final leg of his world tour, during which he performed 39 shows across 17 cities in 12 countries, attracting approximately 825,000 fans.
The Seoul encore featured a setlist that included hits like 'PO₩ER', '미치GO (GO)', 'Crayon', and 'Crooked', culminating with the closing song 'Untitled, 2014'. The concert was structured to encapsulate the essence of the entire world tour.
A special highlight was the surprise appearance of Taeyang and Daesung during the 'HOME SWEET HOME' performance, which received enthusiastic responses. The encore also included 'WE LIKE 2 PARTY' and '눈물뿐인 바보'. Additionally, the 'TAKE ME' stage featured a 'Smoke' challenge with choreographer Bada, engaging the audience.
The world tour kicked off in March in Goyang and traveled through cities like Tokyo, Bulacan, Osaka, Macau, Sydney, Melbourne, Taipei, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Hong Kong, Newark, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Paris, and Hanoi, concluding with the Seoul encore.
The tour received distinct reactions in each region. All seats were sold out in Japan, and over 680,000 people attempted to purchase tickets in Macau. Additional encore performances were added in Taipei and Osaka, while the Hanoi show sold out immediately. The U.S. performances also garnered attention from major local media.
This tour showcased G-DRAGON's accumulated musical and stage experience as a solo artist. Despite initial controversies over tardiness and vocal performance at the opening show in Goyang, the tour concluded successfully and smoothly.
