G-Dragon and Stray Kids had a special meeting in Paris, France. The sight of them captured at the charity event hosted by Mrs. Macron drew the attention of fans worldwide as a 'meeting of K-Pop icons'.

World-renowned trumpet player Ibrahim Maalouf shared a photo on his social media (SNS) on the 22nd (Korean time). The photo features 'K-Pop's eternal icon' G-Dragon alongside Stray Kids members Felix and Hyunjin, who are rising global stars. He expressed his surprise and joy on his SNS, saying "Meeting with the great @realstraykids & @xxxibgdrgn in Paris for a great show !!!!!"

They reportedly met while visiting for the 'Yellow Coin Collection 2026 (Gala des Pièces Jaunes)' concert held at the La Défense Arena in Paris, France. The three in the photo showcased their warm visuals and natural camaraderie, hinting at the lively atmosphere of the event.

This meeting holds significance beyond mere friendship. The concert is a large-scale charity event organized by the French hospital foundation chaired by Brigitte Macron, the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron. G-Dragon and Stray Kids are listed alongside global pop stars like Christina Aguilera and A$AP Rocky in the lineup.

Notably, both teams are attending for the second time, which underscores the status of K-Pop in France. Artists representing Korea are coming together for this meaningful occasion to help hospitalized children and adolescents, exerting a positive influence.
