G-Dragon Sends Witty Support Message to IVE's Jang Won-young

K-pop icon G-Dragon has sent a thoughtful congratulatory gift to Jang Won-young, a member of the girl group IVE.

On the 31st, Jang Won-young shared a photo on her social media of a bouquet she received, reportedly from G-Dragon. Accompanying the flowers was a card with the message: "Let's go get the car out in 2025, 1young/31, can you take out some tickets for me… We’re up all night to get Lucky! Show ’em what u’ve got! – XOXG."

Jang Won-young expressed her gratitude by tagging G-Dragon's account and using emojis of an airplane, a star, and a uniform. The connection between the two artists began during the filming of the promotional video for 'APEC 2025 KOREA'.

The message on the card cleverly incorporated their connection and individual symbols. "Let's go get the car out" references a line from the video. "1young/31" is a play on words, combining Jang Won-young's moniker '1young' with the date of the post (the 31st). "Get Lucky" refers to the Daft Punk song title and a 'lucky' catchphrase, while "XOXG" borrows from an IVE song title, tying it all together as encouragement to "Show 'em what you've got."

Meanwhile, IVE kicked off their 'IVE WORLD TOUR [SHOW WHAT I AM]' in Seoul on the same day at the KSPO Dome. The tour, continuing until the 2nd, features the members' solo stages, which have been met with enthusiastic responses from fans. G-Dragon recently performed at a welcoming dinner cultural performance for the APEC Summit in Gyeongju and is scheduled to hold an encore concert at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul from the 12th to the 14th of next month.

Netizens reacted positively, commenting, "GD's sense is amazing," "This collaboration is so fresh," and "It's heartwarming how they connected after filming the APEC promo video."
