During a recent episode of his YouTube show “Zip Daesung”, Daesung looked back on performing at Coachella alongside G-Dragon and Taeyang.

The trio took the stage in Indio, California, marking a meaningful reunion for BIGBANG members and delighting global fans. Despite the hype, Daesung kept his signature humor:

“What do you mean we tore up the stage? We have to stitch it back together,” he joked.

Behind the successful performance, however, was a tense situation.

Daesung revealed: “My manager’s hotel room was robbed. Everything was stolen—including our passports.”

As a result, he had to return to Korea using an emergency passport, turning what should have been a smooth trip into a stressful ordeal.

Surprisingly, this wasn’t an isolated incident.

Daesung shared that a similar theft occurred previously in Hawaii:

  • A car window was smashed during filming
  • His manager’s bag was stolen
  • Passports were taken

“I’ve had my passport stolen twice,” he said, highlighting the recurring misfortune.

Despite the chaos, Daesung spoke candidly about the Coachella experience—from song choices like incorporating trot elements to adding Korean subtitles for global audiences.

His conversation with Hyoyeon added a fun and nostalgic touch, as the episode featured a rare BIGBANG–Girls’ Generation interaction.

BIGBANG’s Coachella stage was a major milestone, but Daesung’s story reveals the unpredictable reality behind global performances.
