The reaction disappeared soon after, but by then, screenshots and comments saying \u201cG-Dragon liked it\u201d had already spread across platforms, turning the incident into a viral talking point among Gen Z and millennial K-pop fans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"editor-p\">The buzz was amplified by the fact that both artists were major winners at the same ceremony.<\/p>\n<p class=\"editor-p\">G-Dragon took home the Digital Song Grand Prize for \u201cHOME SWEET HOME\u201d featuring Taeyang and Daesung. Although he did not attend in person due to scheduling conflicts, he appeared via video message, saying, \u201cThis year, I will be coming back together with the BIGBANG members,\u201d drawing loud cheers from the audience.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/24849cfb-c2bc-4596-bb68-082fb1fd68b7.jpg\" style=\"height: auto; aspect-ratio: 1200 \/ 905; width: 100%\" alt=\"Jennie \/ Xportsnews\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"editor-p\">Jennie, meanwhile, dominated the night\u2019s finale.

Childish Gambino, Kali Uchis),\u201d and \u201clike JENNIE,\u201d showcasing the wide musical range that has fueled her global popularity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"editor-p\">G-Dragon and Jennie have been the subject of multiple dating rumors since their time together at YG Entertainment, fueled by alleged sightings and online speculation.
