The conversation took a humorous turn when Tablo jokingly noted G-Dragon's tendency to like posts that aren’t about him or BIGBANG, prompting G-Dragon to affirm, "I press like if I just like it." This exchange underscored how even the simplest actions, like liking a post, can trigger fan excitement and media chatter.

Additionally, G-Dragon spoke about the motivation behind his increased social media presence. "After we took a long break, it was a challenge for me as the last member to come back. I didn’t have other communication outlets, and Instagram was my only way to express myself. When I started to like people's posts, they reacted with more thoughtful content in return," he explained, highlighting the reciprocal relationship between artists and their fans.

One notable aspect of the discussion was how G-Dragon’s 'likes' have become newsworthy. Tuktuk remarked, "Whenever you press 'like,' it becomes a headline. Don't you realize how influential you are?" This observation prompted laughter but also emphasized G-Dragon's continuing relevance in the entertainment world, even in seemingly simple actions.

G-Dragon's reflections on social media demonstrate not only how he navigates his identity as a celebrated artist but also how vital it is for him to connect with his fans, translating his likes into meaningful engagement. His casual yet deliberate interaction style continues to resonate, illustrating the ongoing relevance he has in the K-pop landscape.
