G-Dragon’s most recent Ubermensch concert in Hong Kong took an uncomfortable turn when multiple fans were spotted holding signs that read “bring Seungri back.”
The incident quickly spread across social media, leaving many VIPs frustrated and angry over what was deemed as “lack of respect” shown towards G-Dragon from his own fans.
According to fans who attended, the signs were visible multiple times throughout the show, with some claiming G-Dragon appeared to notice them and tried to look away. Many expressed that such actions crossed the line, especially given Seungri’s history and the circumstances of his departure from BIGBANG.
We really weren’t going to say anything, but it’s pissing us off. Several times throughout the videos you can see him trying to look away from the signs and compose himself.
Please, do not mention former members who have no connection to him anymore, or even try to associate… pic.twitter.com/B4BUDh8Vwz

Have you gone crazy????
The sign in Korean: bring Seungri back (even the grammar is incorrect)
If they’re from Hong Kong, I’m going to scold them like crazy.— Fan via Threads

Multiple posts full of anger and outrage started circulating on X and Threads from fans of G-Dragon and the rest of BIGBANG. Since then, calls have even grown for event organizers and security teams to step in and prevent similar situations in the future.
Guys, pls let's sent message to security team and GALAXY. This is intolerable and not the first time. GD clearly saw it in today's video, the first pic means take Seungri back. Shame on you.😡 Pls repost let more people see.#권지용 #GDWORLDTOUR2025 #GDRAGON pic.twitter.com/DBvrIfoufd

To the ppl who thought it was funny or clever to bring up Seungri, a convicted sex offender, at GD’s concert: you’re vile. That wasn’t bold, it was pure cruelty. U didn’t jst disrespect GD, U disrespected the pain, struggle, & healing it took for him to stand on that stage again.

the worst thing you could do to bigbang is to ask them to bring back seungri or mention anything related to that scum. Have you forgotten what he alone has done to the group? even a lot of ‘vips’ left the fandom when the bs scandal happened. you only care for seungri not bigbang

Seungri retired from the entertainment industry and left BIG BANG back in 2019 following his involvement in the infamous “Burning Sun” scandal.
