K-pop fans now have a whole new way to show love for their idols — and yes, that includes G-Dragon and other legendary stars.
The fan-voting platform Gifttree has just launched its upgraded “Funding Vote” service, which lets fans directly sponsor and unlock huge LED billboard ads in iconic locations like Hongdae Station and Times Square Yeongdeungpo.
Unlike traditional fan votes run by staff or admins, Gifttree’s new system allows fans themselves to open voting projects, set their own goals, and earn real-world rewards once those targets are reached. No ranking pressure — just collective fandom love that grows with every vote.
And here’s the best part: voting is free. Fans can earn votes simply by watching ads or reading short articles, then use them to celebrate birthdays, debuts, anniversaries, or comeback promotions for their favorite stars.
Currently trending on the app are birthday and anniversary projects for aespa’s Winter, BLACKPINK’s Jennie & Jisoo, EXO’s D.O. & Kai, TVXQ, GOT7 (11th anniversary), and of course G-Dragon, whose fans are already gathering votes to light up Seoul’s biggest billboards.
Depending on how many votes each project reaches, fans can unlock increasingly grand displays:
300K votes → Instagram post + news article + site banner
500K votes → Subway billboard (7 days)
1M votes → Vertical LED ad at Hapjeong Station
3M+ votes → Multiple Seoul subway boards + Hongdae LED billboard
7M votes → Times Square Yeongdeungpo & Hongdae Station full-scale LED ads
For fans, it’s more than just a vote — it’s the joy of gifting your idol a moment in the spotlight.
Fans can easily join by searching “기프트리 (Gifttree)” on Naver or Google, signing in with a Kakao or Naver account, and collecting free votes through daily missions.
Whether you’re a VIP (G-Dragon fan), a BLINK, or part of any fandom — this new feature is turning digital support into dazzling real-world celebrations.
