🏆 The Moment of Glory: Triple Crown Winner, and the Mixed Reactions to His Stage
At the ‘2025 MAMA Awards’, G-Dragon proved his status as the K-POP King by winning Best Dance Performance, Best Artist, and the prestigious Artist of the Year award. 👑
Fans' expectations were focused on the stage. That day, G-Dragon performed three songs consecutively—his hits ‘DRAMA’, ‘Untitled’, and ‘Heartbreaker’—marking his first official performance in a long time.
But perhaps expectations were simply too high? After the awards ceremony, some netizens began expressing disappointment about the stage.
🎤 The Core of the Live Controversy: High-Note Sections and AR Usage
The main point of contention regarding G-Dragon's stage was his ‘live singing ability’.
Many expressed disappointment that his voice wasn't clearly audible during the high-note sections, while others pointed out that the background music (AR) was excessively loud during the instrumental breaks where the singing paused. As the artist's own voice didn't come through as clearly as expected on stage, netizens' reactions to G-Dragon's performance were sharply divided.
This incident underscored the exceptionally high standards and expectations the public holds for the live performances of a leading K-POP artist.
👎 G-Dragon's Shocking ‘Self-Criticism’ Comment
Before the controversy had even subsided, G-Dragon surprised everyone with an unconventional move.
When a video of his stage performance was uploaded to the official SNS account of the ‘2025 MAMA Awards’, he personally left a comment. That comment was none other than a thumbs-down emoji 👎.
Netizens interpreted this emoji as a ‘self-critique’, meaning ‘low satisfaction with his own stage’ or ‘he himself acknowledges the live controversy’. Since it's rare for a legendary artist to publicly express dissatisfaction with their own stage, this comment sparked yet another massive debate.
While the exact reason G-Dragon posted this emoji remains unclear, it could stem from his perfectionism and dissatisfaction with his own performance, or it might be a humble acknowledgment of the live controversy while promising improvement for future stages. Either way, the public is once again focusing on his honest and unconventional attitude.
