Due to the reduction regulation that was applied to public service agents in 2018, T.O.P’s service period had been shortened by about 27 days.
Hence, instead of August, the actor-rapper was set for July 8 military discharge. But since there is no office on the said date, T.O.P concluded his social service work on July 6.

Served at Yongsan Craft Center, T.O.P worked at a cultural facility, housing elderly people who produce and sell crafts. Warmly receiving the welcome from his supporters, he generously poured in the same amount of love he accepted.
Organized by his local fans, T.O.P made sure that his fans’ wait would be worth it, and even graced a “secret fan meeting” with them.
While expected to come out with the local media on standby, the BIGBANG member went first to where his loyal followers were convened, proving his gratefulness for the people who have given him strength unconditionally.

BIGBANG’s T.O.P Begins Final Day As Public Service Worker Before Discharge

BIGBANG’s T.O.P Begins Final Day As Public Service Worker Before Discharge
BIGBANG’s T.O.P is wrapping up his mandatory military service.
On July 6, T.O.P began his last day of service as a public service worker, greeted by fans as he arrived at the The Yongsan Crafts Museum in the morning. He is set to be discharged when his work ends for the day at 7 p.m. KST.
A source from his agency YG Entertainment stated, “T.O.P himself has stated that he hopes to have a quiet enlistment as he does not wish to cause discomfort to the visitors of the museum.” They added that to respect his wishes, T.O.P will head home after being discharge without any separate events or greetings.
T.O.P initially enlisted as a conscripted policeman in February 2017 as the first member of BIGBANG to go to the army. He served until June of that year, when he was dismissed from duty due to marijuana use. In January 2018, he then resumed his mandatory service as a public service worker.
He was initially scheduled to complete his service in early August, but new military laws implemented in 2018 shortened service periods for soldiers, and his new discharge date was pulled from July 8 to July 6 as his workplace does not open on Mondays.
T.O.P is the first member of BIGBANG to be discharged from the military. G-Dragon enlisted in February 2018, and Taeyang and Daesung enlisted in March 2018. All three are expected to be discharged by the end of the year.
