G-Dragon is facing backlash over his attempt to shut down dating rumors with TWICE’s Sana. Fans are criticizing his response, claiming it downplays her role as a host on the YouTube show Fridge Interview.
The speculation began in May when G-Dragon tagged Sana in an Instagram story from a Coldplay concert, which he quickly deleted. This fueled talk, especially after his confirmed appearance on Fridge Interview.
Now, G-Dragon’s agency is stepping in. They issued a formal statement denying the dating rumors, labeling the Instagram tag as a friendly gesture. They explained the delay in addressing the rumors was to avoid ruining his talk show appearance.
However, fans aren’t buying it. On X (formerly Twitter), criticism intensified. Many are disputing G-Dragon’s framing of Sana’s involvement, suggesting it misrepresents her long-standing role as a host.
A fan tweeted:
“That’s how you know he’s lying. Sana’s been hosting this for 3 months, he went for her.”
Another chimed in:
“This pissed me off. Why act like she was inserted into the show last minute?”
Others accuse G-Dragon of leveraging the dating rumors for publicity, questioning why his agency felt the need to respond so formally.
As the backlash grows, it seems the rumors aren’t fading away any time soon. Fans are keeping a close watch on how this situation unfolds.
