BIGBANG’s iconic leader and solo artist G-Dragon has officially announced the cancellation of his highly anticipated Bangkok concert, part of his 2025 WORLD TOUR [ÜBERMENSCH]. Originally scheduled for August 2, 2025, the concert will no longer take place.
The news was confirmed on July 11, 2025, through an official English announcement from G-Dragon, expressing regret over the cancellation and apologizing to his fans in Thailand.
The Announcement
In the statement, G-Dragon said:
“We are deeply regretful to share that, due to unforeseen circumstances, ‘G-DRAGON 2025 WORLD TOUR [ÜBERMENSCH] IN BANGKOK’—originally scheduled for August 2nd—has been cancelled.
We understand how much many of you were looking forward to this performance, and we sincerely apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience this may cause.
Thank you for your ongoing patience and support. We truly appreciate our fans in Thailand and hope to see you again very soon.”
The cancellation comes ahead of the ticket sales for the Bangkok stop, meaning fans were not required to worry about refunds, as tickets had not yet been released to the public.
