G-Dragon, the Honorary Ambassador of APEC 2025, together with violin prodigy Kim Yeon Ah and a cast of Korean artists brought an impressive performance at the APEC 2025 Leaders' Reception on the evening of October 31 in Gyeongju.

On the evening of October 31, in the ancient city of Gyeongju, South Korea, the reception for APEC 2025 economic leaders became the focus of attention not only because of the presence of many heads of state but also because of the impressive appearance of K-pop star G-Dragon and a cast of top artists.

The party was held at the Lahan Select Hotel under the chairmanship of South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and his wife Kim Hye Kyung, with the theme "Journey of Butterfly: Together, We Fly" – an artistic journey that honors the past, present and future of the land of kimchi.

According to the South Korean Presidential Office, the entire program is divided into three parts, each part is a piece of the vast cultural picture, depicting the country's development journey from the glorious Silla dynasty to the technological era – where artificial intelligence and robots play a role in creating the future. It's all connected by the message throughout: global cooperation and the desire to fly high together.

At the beginning of the program, the "manpasikjeok" flute – a legendary instrument associated with the symbol of peace and unity of the Silla Dynasty – sounded majestically. Artist Kim Ki Yeop, who is famous for his daegeum (bamboo flute), took the auditorium back to an ancient space, where sound and emotion blended into a symphony of history.

Immediately afterwards, the Korean National Dance Troupe performed a contemporary performance based on traditional art, showing the intersection of old values and modern breath through each delicate movement.

Entering the second part, the atmosphere became exciting when G-Dragon – the honorary ambassador of APEC 2025 – stepped out on stage. As the only K-pop artist to participate in this high-level event, the leader of Big Bang had a performance that lasted about 10 minutes, attracting the full eyes of international guests.

Before starting, G-Dragon briefly but proudly introduced himself: "I am G-Dragon, the ambassador for APEC 2025."

The male singer opened with the hit "Power" – a song released in October 2024, which is considered a symbol of Korea's strong spirit and new energy. G-Dragon appeared in a distinctive style: a fedora hat with a pearl chain evoking the image of "gat" – the traditional hat of men in the Joseon era. This image not only honors cultural heritage but also creates an interesting association with the character Jinwoo in the anime "KPop Demon Hunters".

The auditorium exploded when G-Dragon performed three songs one after another: Drama, Home Sweet Home and a special song dedicated to the event. With an attractive performance style, he not only brings music but also conveys the spirit of creativity and national pride.

In addition, the program also has the presence of Honey J – the leader of the dance group HolyBang, the champion of the first season of "Street Woman Fighter", and Lee Jung – a talented choreographer who participated in the staging of Netflix's international animated film "KPop Demon Hunters".

The finale, titled "Towards the Future", is a combination of art and technology. The four-legged robot Spot performs with 11-year-old "violin prodigy" Kim Yeon Ah, a symbol of hope and progress. In particular, the APEC Project Choir consisting of 24 children from many countries harmonized in the song "Fly as One", closing the program with a message of peace, solidarity and global aspirations.
