• T.O.P Finally Breaks Silence After 11 Years - Will He Address BIGBANG, Drug Controversies, and Acting Criticism in First Interview?

    T.O.P, the iconic member of BIGBANG, is ready to break his silence after 11 long years! The singer and actor, also known as Choi Seung Hyun, will sit down for an exclusive interview on the 15th, where he will finally address the controversies surrounding his career, including his past drug issues, his role in Squid Game Season 2, and more.

    This marks T.O.P’s first interview as actor Choi Seung Hyun since his role in the 2014 film Tazza: The Hidden Card, making it an eagerly anticipated moment for fans. T.O.P has not appeared in front of the press for over a decade, making this a major milestone in his return to the acting world.

    One of the biggest talking points surrounding T.O.P has been his involvement in Squid Game Season 2, where he plays the character Thanos—a former rapper turned drug addict. His casting has stirred up controversy, particularly because of his own real-life drug conviction in 2017, which led to a suspended prison sentence. Before the show’s release, T.O.P notably skipped the production press conference and promotional events, leading to questions about his involvement.

    While T.O.P's acting received criticism in South Korea, his performance has been better received internationally. His portrayal of a drug-addicted rapper became a hot topic, with many viewers making comparisons between his role and his personal past.

    Director Hwang Dong Hyuk weighed in on the controversy, explaining, “I didn’t expect it to become such a controversy. I thought enough time had passed, and since the sentence had been served, he could restart his career.” Hwang continued, “After seeing the reactions, I realized my thoughts were short-sighted, but T.O.P showed strong determination. He auditioned and showed great effort and talent despite the concerns.”

    Now, all eyes are on T.O.P as he sits down for his first interview in over a decade. Fans are eager to hear if he will discuss BIGBANG’s possible retirement, the drug-related allegations from his past, and the criticism he’s faced for his acting.

    The full interview will be released on the 16th, and fans are counting down the days to hear T.O.P’s side of the story.

    Meanwhile, Squid Game Season 2 continues to captivate audiences with the return of Gi Hun, who is out for revenge and back in the deadly game. Get ready for the next thrilling chapter in the series, with Season 3 set to drop later this year.
