BIGBANG's T.O.P (Choi Seung Hyun), who left Korea for the United States following the termination of his contract with YG Entertainment, was located in Korea.

The location where T.O.P was unexpectedly discovered. This time he was seen without BIGBANG members, with whom he had lived for many years.

The movie theater was where T.O.P. was caught. The VIP premiere of the film "Emergency Declaration" was held on July 25 at Megabox, COEX, Seoul.

On this day, T.O.P appeared wearing black horn-rimmed glasses. He showcased his extraordinary taste by wearing a suit and a casual shirt.

However, what garnered the most attention was the unchanged appearance from the days of BIGBANG. After a lengthy absence, he greeted the camera while displaying his brightly bleached hair.

Since April of last year, this is the first time T.O.P has appeared in public in Korea. T.O.P announced the termination of his contract with YG Entertainment following the conclusion of BIGBANG's "Spring Summer Fall Winter" at that time.

He said, "I think I am facing another important turning point in my life. I am very grateful to the fans".

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.
