On December 20, G-Dragon took part in a pre-recording for SBS's Inkigayo, where he delighted fans by giving out thoughtful gifts like hats, scarves, masking tape, keychains, photcards, and string bags. He even prepared coffee trucks and delicious desserts to show appreciation to the fans who attended.

However, things took a turn when a listing for a "G-Dragon Inkigayo Reverse Gift, PEACEMINUSONE Photocard Full Set" popped up on the Lightning Market, a second-hand marketplace, priced at a whopping 730,000 KRW.

In response to the resale, G-Dragon’s agency, Galaxy Corporation, quickly issued a warning on X (formerly Twitter), stressing that the transfer or sale of items related to public broadcasts is strictly prohibited.

The agency announced that anyone involved in such activities would face immediate exclusion from participating in future broadcasts, with no prior warning.

They also assured fans that a blacklist would be maintained privately due to concerns about personal information.
