Will T.O.P Succeed in His Comeback After 13 Years? Supported by BIGBANG Members

T.O.P, formerly of BIGBANG, is making his musical comeback after 13 years. He will release his first full-length album 'Multiple Perspectives (ANOTHER DIMENSION)' on April 3 through various online music platforms. This marks his first official music release since 'Doom Dada' in 2013, representing a 13-year hiatus from the music industry. T.O.P's career took a significant turn in 2016 when he was convicted of marijuana use, receiving a 10-month prison sentence with two years suspended, leading to his departure from BIGBANG. Subsequently, he engaged in conflicts with fans on social media and even announced his retirement from the entertainment industry. However, his return to the public eye came in 2024 when he appeared in Netflix's 'Squid Game Season 2,' effectively reversing his retirement announcement. In an interview regarding his return, T.O.P reflected on his past actions, stating he was going through a dark period and that social media was his only communication channel. He expressed deep remorse about his previous statements, acknowledging that his past mistakes had caused significant pain to his loved ones and family members. Notably, BIGBANG members including Taeyang and G-Dragon have publicly shown their support by giving 'like' reactions on social media to T.O.P's comeback announcement. The industry is now closely watching whether the loyalty and brotherhood among BIGBANG members can help T.O.P overcome his more than decade-long hiatus and achieve a successful return to music.
