True to G-Dragon’s words at his “ONE OF A KIND WORLD TOUR” solo gig in Singapore earlier in June, the BIGBANG leader returned to our shores with his “brothers” yesterday, putting up an adrenaline-pumping concert at the Padang stage last night. Notably, it is also the second time the immensely popular K-Pop group has been invited to perform at the Singapore Grand Prix.
It has been some time since the five members of BIGBANG reunited on stage, and they surely did not disappoint with their high-energy performances.
To get a good glimpse of the boys, VIPs (BIGBANG’s official fanclub name) queued for hours under the glaring sun before the show kick-started at 11.15pm. It was heartening to know that the fans’ efforts did not go unnoticed as G-Dragon gave a shout-out during the concert, saying, “I know you guys waited for us since morning. We really appreciate it.”
The boys’ passion was clearly unaltered by the 80-minute performing time (which is significantly shorter than their usual concerts), as they ran around the extension stage throughout the show, trying to engage all fans standing at different sectors. Even when their hair and makeup were ruined by buckets of sweat, BIG BANG never once stopped the party.
Unlike most K-Pop groups who give out countless “hearts” during their shows, BIGBANG’s fanservice came in the form of good music and dedicated performances.
