G-Dragon made a comeback as a solo artist for the first time in seven years since the release of 'Kwon Ji Yong' in 2017. Fans were thrilled to see their beloved singer perform on stage, especially at the year-end award shows.
In appreciation of his fans’ unwavering support, G-Dragon went above and beyond by offering exclusive merchandise and creating unforgettable experiences for those who attended the '2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon.'
One fan compiled a full list of all the gifts that G-Dragon had provided to fans. The fan wrote, "Surprisingly, these are all the things G-Dragon did for fans at the 2024 SBS Gayo Daejeon Recording Event..."

Dessert Lunchboxes
Different desserts were provided for groups of 700 fans, each featuring daisy-themed decorations as a delightful touch.

Photo Cards + Handwritten Message Cards
Messages included lines like, "At least take this for now... we haven’t even started yet."
To keep fans entertained while waiting, he distributed gifts in three stages:
During the first check-in.
Before entering after the second check-in.
After the pre-recording ended.
Exclusive Hat and Scarf
Fans received the same hat and scarf G-Dragon wore during his Gayo Daejeon performance.
The hats were designed by G-Dragon himself, as seen in his music videos and other shoots. Fans loved the personal touch.
Fans wore the gifts on-site, so they were wearing matching hats with G-Dragon, who couldn’t stop smiling at the recording. 🤭
Rare PEACEMINUSONE Goods
Limited-edition items, even difficult for fans to obtain, were gifted.
These are personal items G-Dragon frequently uses, making them extra meaningful for fans.
A fan also wrote a post-event review and shared, "Despite delays during the waiting time, G-Dragon repeatedly apologized, saying, 'I’m sorry I’m not doing enough. I’ll do better'.” They added, "When fans joked, 'Don’t go home~' he replied, 'I’ve given you all the gifts I prepared,' cleverly referencing lyrics from his own song."
Other fans were impressed by all the gifts that G-Dragon had prepared for fans and commented:
"Praising myself for attending the pre-recording 💛 It was so good."
"That PEACEMINUSONE masking tape alone is being sold for 80,000–90,000 KRW (~54.33 to 61.12 USD) on resale site..."
"Wow… I really want that photo card... so jealous"
"Wow, true love..."
"Ah, I really, really want that power cap..."
"I’m so, so, so jealous."
"Even though all this is amazing and appreciated, just having him make a comeback is the greatest gift for me."
"Seriously, G-Dragon is on another level... how can he take care of his fans like this?"
"No, I’m so jealous of that bouquet. It’s not even an engagement, but he gave it and then posted a photo on Instagram wearing a daisy on his ring finger ㅠ Not like he’s actually going to marry us."
"This is crazy… the VIPs must be so happy. You can see why he’s so successful and has such a long-lasting career."
"This wasn’t even a thing back in G-Dragon’s peak activity days. It’s amazing to see him be this thoughtful now."
"His love for fans has always been incredible and consistent…"
"Big Bang fans are flipping out, saying, 'Why call this reverse fan service?' They point out that he was the first idol to refuse fan gifts and that their fandom doesn’t even do labor (fan support), so the term doesn’t even apply, lol. That’s why we decided to call it pre-recording gifts among ourselves."
"Wow… he really takes such good care of his fans. It’s cool and heart-fluttering."
"Ah, why is he so sweet... seriously."
