From the Straits Times:

Multi-label concept store Dover Street Market is opening its Singapore store (the fourth in the world after London, Tokyo and New York) on Saturday.

It will launch with exclusive Dover Street Market Singapore T-Shirts ($115), a tie-up between the store and renowned Russian fashion designer and photographer Gosha Rubchinskiy. Peaceminusone, a streetwear label by K-pop superstar G-Dragon, has also collaborated with DSM Singapore on an exclusive collection of apparel and accessories including T-shirts ($650).

From Buro 24/7:

“This is a big deal for Singapore,” says Norman Tan, editor-in-chief of Buro 24/7 Singapore. “We’re only the fourth city in the world to have a Dover Street Market after Tokyo, New York and London. Like the other DSMs I’ve visited, I love the on-the-money curation of the latest and greatest luxury and cult brands. I recommend picking up one of the colourful football scarves from the Good Design Shop and an exclusive PEACEMINUSONE x DSMS T-shirt. Excited about what’s to come.”

G-Dragon misses BIGBANG’s maknae Seungri a lot and he had to let the whole world know! 

Seungri uploaded a photo of BIGBANG’s “A TO Z” Taipei exhibition as he will be attending the event.

Fans poured out their excitement over Seungri’s appearance but amongst the many comments, a heartfelt comment from G-Dragon’s private account was spotted.

“Seungri-ya, where in the world are you and what are you doing. I miss you.”

— G-Dragon

Just like his hyung, Seungri has been keeping busy as he is occupied attending events like the exhibition above and even club events. 

Not only that but Seungri has been highly active in his personal life as he even recently participated in a Jiu Jitsu competition and won medals! 

Congratulations Richard Lee! (That’s his real English name.)

Since Seungri is very engaged with his individual activities lately and G-Dragon is busy with his world tour, both haven’t heard from each other! 

Hopefully, the two find some vacant spots in their busy schedules and get to catch up with one another since G-Dragon really misses his dongseng…

Fans shouldn’t be worried though, even if the members seem far away right now, G-Dragon promised that BIGBANG will come back together!

After recently receiving his sentence regarding his marijuana scandal, BIGBANG’s T.O.P has filed for a sick leave from the military.

According to police officials on July 28, the idol star will be taking a sick leave due to his heightened social anxiety. He submitted an official medical note recording his current condition as well as a written consent of a family member to the police division.

In the meantime, T.O.P is currently resting at home and will be going in for an examination next week which will determine whether he would still be qualified to serve as a conscripted policeman. If he passes the examination, he will be returning to his base, otherwise, he would have to complete his army duties in another role.

Meanwhile, it has been reported that the BIGBANG member will not appeal his sentence.

#BIGBANG's #TOP didn't lodge an appeal against the decision of the court https://t.co/jrdm7ZHYE1 pic.twitter.com/6eCzrOReuk

BIGBANG’s TOP, who has been charged with smoking marijuana and said he will gladly accept any punishment didn’t lodge an appeal against the decision of the court.

On July 20, BIGBANG TOP’s final trial was held at the Seoul Central District Court, and as a result, he was given a 10-month jail sentence suspended for two years. And the prosecution imposed him to pay 12,000 won in restitution for his crime. He could lodge an appeal against the decision of the court within in a week, but he didn’t, according to the court officials on July 28.

Why do you think TOP didn’t lodge an appeal against the decision of the court, then? Well, basically, it’s because he deeply regrets what he did and feels ashamed of himself. He knows he did a great wrong and disappointed his fans bitterly. According to the officials, he feels so sorry for all the people who’ve been supporting him for a long time. He didn’t want to disappoint people around him again by lodging an appeal against the decision of the court.

And actually, TOP could get a lighter sentence because he admitted all the charges and deeply regretted what he did. At his final trial, the judge said “He needs to be punished severely because he is a very popular person and his wrongdoing could have a bad influence on society. However, we decided to reduce his sentence because he admitted all the charges and he deeply regrets what he did”.

Anyway, I hope TOP will make a comeback in good health after having time for self-restraint and self-reflection.

Meanwhile, TOP will not go to jail, but the idol star, who was serving as a conscripted policeman before being charged with smoking marijuana has to be examined if he is qualified for a conscripted policeman. If he passes the examination, he returns to his unit, and if not, he has to fulfill military duty as a public service worker.
