T.O.P to Resume Service As A Public Service Worker at the Yongsan District Office in mid-January 2018

 

On January 4, a source from the Military Manpower Administration revealed that BIGBANG’s T.O.P will be beginning his work as a public service worker at the Yongsan District Office in mid-January. A source from the Yongsan District Office stated, “We’ve received information about the matter, but we haven’t received an official document yet.”

Last February, T.O.P was assigned to be a conscripted policeman for the Gangnam Police Station. However, after being charged and found guilty of smoking marijuana, he was dismissed from duty and was to finish the remainder of his mandatory service as a public service worker.

The singer previously apologized for his actions and stated, “With no excuses, I deeply regret [my actions] and am very fearful. There will never be such irresponsible actions again. I once again apologize and am deeply self-reflecting. I am very embarrassed of myself.”

T.O.P received reservist status and has 520 days left in his mandatory service, and the 117 days he was enlisted from last February 9 until June 5 will be counted towards his service.

It’s Been 10 Years Since “Haru Haru” was Released And It’s Become Even More Amazing

OG BIGBANG fans would surely remember the time the group released “Haru Haru”.

They surprised the public with an emotionally charged, addictive track and a dramatic music video to go along with it. An unconventional style if compared to other male idol groups during that time.

“Haru Haru” was first released as the title track for their “Stand Up” album back in August 2008 and believe it or not, the song actually turns 10 years old this year!

On their last concert in Seoul, fans were treated to a new, softer rearrangement of the iconic song.

Considering that it might be their last tour for a while before enlistment, the mellow rendition was enough to trigger a few emotions from their fans.

The significance of which was even more appreciated and left some in goosebumps!

The moment was so surreal, fans eventually joined the members in singing it with them.

Surely, only BIGBANG can set off new emotions by revising their old tunes.

KINGS.
