T.O.P(元BIGBANG)、「イカゲーム2」ポスターにもなかったのに…インタビューも不参加
TOP (former BIGBANG) wasn't even on the poster for ”Squid Game 2”... He didn't even participate in the interview
Singer and actor TOP will not be participating in any promotional activities for "Squid Game 2". On the 20th, Netflix released the interview schedule for the actors appearing in "Squid Game 2" to reporters.
The interview will feature most of the actors, from director Hwang Dong-hyuk to actors Lee Jung-jae and Jo Yu-ri.
However, TOP's name was not found among them. TOP was also not seen in the recently released poster for "Squid Game 2."
Some have speculated that the entire book was edited out due to negative public opinion toward TOP, but this is not true.
The TOP is not visible in the poster, but the teaser version teases that it will appear in the main story.
However, TOP did not attend the production presentation for "Squid Game 2" held on the 9th.
Not only that, he also attracted attention by not participating in interviews.
It appears that TOP will not be participating in promotional activities for "Squid Game 2."
In October 2016, TOP was given a deferred prosecution after being accused of smoking e-liquid marijuana.
TOP, who caused social controversy, announced his retirement, saying he had no intention of returning, but he reversed this and has continued his activities.
After that, he started to make a comeback as an actor, not as a singer. Just the news of his casting in "Squid Game 2," a production that has attracted worldwide attention, caused a backlash.
In response, director Hwang Dong-hyuk said, "A lot of time has passed, and now that the probation period is over, I thought I could start working again," and announced the casting.
With public opinion still predominantly negative towards TOP, his not participating in promotional activities once again became a hot topic.
Meanwhile, "Squid Game 2" features Lee Jung, who returns to the game with a vow of revenge.
The film depicts a fierce battle between the band's new idol (played by Jae) and the frontman (played by Lee Byung Hun) who welcomes him, and will be released worldwide on the 26th.
