G-Dragon Explains His “Like Fairy” Activity on Social Media: “My Hands Are Big, So I Make Many Mistakes”

G-Dragon appeared on BIGBANG member Daesung’s YouTube channel “Jipdaeseong” and talked about his activity of liking posts on social media. In the video released on the 6th, he appeared alongside actor Lee Soo-hyuk and personally explained the philosophy behind his social media behavior that had piqued fans’ curiosity.

When Daesung asked G-Dragon, “You act as a ‘like fairy’ on Instagram—what’s your standard for doing that?” G-Dragon replied with a smile, saying, “There are many fans who create really great content, so I started liking their posts to express my gratitude for their support.” He added, “When I hit ‘like,’ the fans seem to work even harder,” showing his deep affection for them.

Lee Soo-hyuk jokingly brought up the controversy surrounding G-Dragon liking a performance video of BLACKPINK’s Jennie—only to cancel it later. Lee Soo-hyuk speculated, “Since you make mistakes from time to time, maybe you like multiple posts to make up for it,” and G-Dragon agreed, saying, “There’s some truth to that.”

G-Dragon’s reason for making mistakes on social media was clear. He said, “My hands are a bit big,” showing his palms. He also humorously explained, “I check my social media whenever I have free time, and because I click so quickly during that time, my fingerprints have worn off,” which made those around him laugh. G-Dragon added, “I don’t have a specific standard for liking posts. I just check it whenever I have a moment and click quickly.”

He also openly shared his philosophy on designing Instagram Stories. G-Dragon said, “There were times I spent days thinking about posting just one thing. I plan everything from the moment I take the photo,” emphasizing that he dislikes doing things carelessly. He added that since the creator-made filters were removed recently, he sometimes manually edits images to recreate that old feel.

This appearance was an unexpected surprise. G-Dragon went to the location thinking it would be a solo appearance, but was surprised to see actor Lee Soo-hyuk, with whom he has been friends since his first year of high school. It was also revealed that Lee Soo-hyuk is the real person behind “the friends” mentioned in G-Dragon’s song “This Love.” They shared memories such as meeting by chance at a playground on a rainy day, showcasing their special 20-year friendship. Daesung commented, “You two have the vibe of a long-term married couple.”

What stood out especially was G-Dragon’s unwavering love for BIGBANG. When Daesung joked that he had no friends, G-Dragon replied briefly but powerfully, “It’s us, BIGBANG,” showing his deep affection for the group. G-Dragon has recently completed fan meetings in Seoul and is set to hold more fan meetings in Yokohama, Japan, from the 13th to the 15th, and in Bangkok, Thailand, from the 21st to the 22nd.
