G-Dragon Clarifies Dating Rumors with Sana, But the Real Surprise Connection Was with Someone Else?

On June 5, G-Dragon made a surprise appearance on the popular YouTube variety series hosted by broadcaster Dex and idol Minatozaki Sana. The episode had been highly anticipated, especially after recent speculation linking G-Dragon and Sana romantically. However, those rumors were quickly put to rest.

“The social media tag was just a sign of friendliness after a variety shoot,” G-Dragon clarified, shutting down the gossip once and for all. But what fans didn’t expect was the charming connection that blossomed between G-Dragon and his long-time fan, Dex.
During the episode, Dex openly expressed his admiration for G-Dragon, presenting him with a heartfelt letter and a bouquet of flowers. “I wanted to be saved in your contacts. So I left my number. And with the flower you like… Thank you for showing up,” he said bashfully, including his phone number in the note. G-Dragon laughed, commenting, “You two seem like students visiting a teacher, like Teacher’s Day!” clearly touched and entertained by the gesture.

Dex also shared his viral reaction to G-Dragon’s performance at the 2023 MAMA Awards, a moment fans jokingly dubbed “Girl Dex”. Recalling the incident, Dex said, “I was originally just going to present the award. But I ended up sitting down and suddenly became ‘girl DEX.’ That moment totally shocked me.” G-Dragon replied with humor, “I saw you on TV and then I realized… I thought you were Jo Sung-mo at first.”
Despite the initial buzz surrounding Sana, the true highlight of the episode was the genuine fanboy moment between Dex and G-Dragon. In the end, the only “number exchange” that day came not from a K-pop dating rumor, but from a memorable moment of admiration between artist and fan.
