On November 4, various online communities and social media platforms saw a post titled “G-Dragon Wearing Acupressure Slippers” spread widely.
The post included several photos that G-Dragon recently shared on his Instagram account, showing behind-the-scenes moments from the filming of the performance video for his newly released song “POWER.”
What caught netizens’ attention was the “acupressure slippers” he was wearing, which were also spotted in the waiting room.
Netizens reacted with comments like, “G-Dragon wears acupressure slippers too,” “Did a luxury brand release acupressure slippers?” “You can buy them for around 10,000 won (7.50 USD) on e-commerce platforms. I’ll share the link,” and “I asked him to wear a sun hat in the summer, and now he’s wearing acupressure slippers instead.”
As G-Dragon’s shoes became a sensation online, some e-commerce platforms reported that the item was sold out or had seen a price increase.
Meanwhile, G-Dragon released his digital single “POWER” on October 31. This new song marks his first solo release in 7 years and 4 months since the mini-album “Kwon Ji Yong” released in 2017, and it quickly climbed to the top of major music charts in South Korea upon release. As of the 1st, it reached number one on the iTunes ‘Top Songs’ charts in 15 countries, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Vietnam, demonstrating his global appeal.
