G-Dragon Joins Verdy on the New Übermensch Merch Line

— May 27, 2025 — Pop Culture
G-Dragon works in collaboration with Japanese graphic artist Verdy to launch the special Übermensch merchandise collection. It was just presented at the Osaka show of his 2025 world tour. The two highlight a limited FAM tee, which comes in the tonal finish of black and white. It is then detailed with Verdy's signature Vick character paired with the bold design of G-Dragon's third studio album dubbed Übermensch.

The exclusive tee is made available recently at the Kyocera Dome Osaka merch booth. The design features Verdy's iconic style joined by G-Dragon's art vision to result in a piece that resonates with both figures. The merch simultaneously drops along with his Übermensch world tour which kicked off in March this year -- it marks his first solo tour in eight years time.
