TOP debuted as a member of BIGBANG in 2010 and achieved great success with numerous hit songs.
He had been on a steady path as an actor, appearing in the S2 drama "IRIS" and the films "Into the Fire," "Classmates," and "Tazza: Hand of the Gods." However, after joining the National Police Agency in 2017,
He was tried while serving in the military for allegedly using drugs with former trainee member Han Seo Hee, and was sentenced to 10 months in prison, suspended for two years, and a fine of 12,000 won (about 1,200 yen).
After leaving BIGBANG in 2013, TOP took a break from showbiz. After a long period of silence, he made his comeback in the video "Squid Game" released in December last year.
She will join the cast of "Season 2" and meet with reporters for the first time in 11 years since the 2014 film "Tazza: The Hidden Hand" and seven years since her marijuana case.
In an interview with Herald POP, he said, "It was a fact that I had no intention of returning before I received an offer to audition from the production company of 'Squid Game.'
It was true. Even I, who was reading the script, was troubled by the thought, "I really wanted to act," and I realized that I had such feelings until now, through the character of Thanos.
"I met the director, auditioned, and the director gave me confidence, which I think played a big role.
"In the future, rather than focusing on one specific area, if the opportunity arises and if someone wants me to, I will do my best and work hard in whatever field I can," he said.
As if he had made up his mind, TOP wrote in his SNS profile, "TOP," his stage name when he was in BIGBANG, and his real name, Choi Seung-hyo.
He wrote a message to the group together and constantly uploaded new profile pictures for four days, teasing his hot activities. What kind of image will TOP show in front of the public again?
The developments will be watched closely.
