A Data-Driven Win That Highlights Global Impact

The Hanteo Music Awards is organized by Hanteo Global, the company behind the Hanteo Chart. Unlike many traditional awards, winners are selected based on real-time album sales data and music-related big data, making the results a strong reflection of actual global listening trends.

Winning the Best Song Grand Prize at a data-driven ceremony underscores G-Dragon’s continued relevance and popularity among listeners worldwide.

Strong Streaming Performance Across Platforms

G-Dragon’s recent releases have consistently delivered impressive results across major music platforms.

• “HOME SWEET HOME (feat. Taeyang, Daesung)” surpassed 100 million cumulative streams on Circle Chart.
• “TOO BAD (feat. Anderson .Paak)” also exceeded 100 million streams on Melon.

These milestones highlight not only his streaming power but also his ability to maintain strong fan engagement across different markets.

Expanding Influence Beyond Music Charts

In addition to digital success, G-Dragon has demonstrated his influence through live events. His first solo fan meeting tour, held on a large scale comparable to concert tours, drew significant attention from global fans.

By combining strong streaming performance with large-scale fan engagement, G-Dragon continues to solidify his position as one of the most impactful figures in K-pop.

A Milestone Year Ahead

This latest achievement adds another milestone to G-Dragon’s career, reinforcing his status as a leading global artist.

Looking ahead, anticipation is growing as BIGBANG approaches its 20th debut anniversary, with expectations for upcoming group activities and new projects.

As G-Dragon continues to connect with fans through music and performances, his next moves remain one of the most closely watched developments in the industry.
