On April 5, G-Dragon attended a match between LAFC and Orlando City at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, sharing glimpses of his visit on social media with the caption “LA.” Fellow BIGBANG member Daesung was also spotted at the venue, even holding a jersey of Son Heung Min.
Following the match, the two K-icons met on the field in a moment that quickly went viral. According to images released by the club, G-Dragon approached Son Heung Min with visible excitement, while the football star responded with a warm and friendly greeting. The pair shared a brief conversation and posed for photos together.
Korean media described the interaction as unusually heartfelt, noting that it went beyond the typical formal exchanges often seen between celebrities and athletes. Reports also highlighted that Son Heung Min has previously referred to G-Dragon as “hyung”—a Korean term used to address an older brother—hinting at their close relationship.
This isn’t the first time the two global stars have shown their bond. They have interacted multiple times on social media, exchanged gifts, and even met privately. In the past, G-Dragon gifted Son a limited-edition perfume, which the footballer proudly shared with fans. They have also reportedly dined together on several occasions.
As two of South Korea’s most influential figures—one dominating global music and fashion, the other excelling in world football—their reunion represents a rare crossover moment that resonates far beyond their respective industries.
