Singer G-Dragon will take the stage at the welcoming dinner for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit, which will be held at Lahan Hotel in Gyeongju on October 31. He is the only K-pop artist invited to the event.


On October 29, his agency, Galaxy Corporation, announced, "G-Dragon will participate in the cultural performance at the welcoming dinner," adding, "He will perform in front of world leaders from various countries."


G-Dragon was appointed as the official ambassador for the APEC Summit in July. As of this date, the promotional video featuring him has surpassed 19 million views on YouTube, creating a buzz online. It is credited with not only serving as a simple promotion but also effectively communicating the summit's theme of 'Connectivity, Inclusion, and Sustainability.'


The organizing committee stated, "G-Dragon is someone who can strongly convey the values that APEC pursues both at home and abroad," adding, "We expect him to present a symbolic performance at the welcoming dinner as well."



This marks the first time a K-pop artist will give a solo performance at the welcoming dinner of the APEC Summit.
