Shine a Light is the first live album by South Korean rapper G-Dragon. It was released on March 30, 2010 and is a two-disc compilation of live and remixed songs, recorded during his Shine a Light concert in December 2009 at Olympic Gymnastics Arena.[1]

Background

Following G-Dragon's plagiarism accusations for his song "Heartbreaker" by Sony Music who saw similarities to Flo Rida's song "Right Round",[2] YG Entertainment announced they had personally reached out to Flo Rida's representatives. The label confirmed on March 6, 2010 that Flo Rida is going to appear as a featuring artist in a new version of "Heartbreaker",[3] to be included as a bonus track on G-Dragon's live album Shine a Light.
