T.O.P is favored by the "big man" to come out, paving the way for re-export, collab Jennie has 1-0-2?

The fan community was overwhelmed with emotion by the 1-0-2 combination of T.O.P and Jennie . Many people also expressed their desire for the former BIGBANG member to return to the music track soon.

Recently, Netflix released a promotional video for Korean content, starring TV star Martha Stewart, male rapper Lil Yachty and rapper and actor T.O.P.

In the video, Martha Stewart immerses herself in Korean entertainment shows and dramas on Netflix. The actress said that she has watched many movies such as "When Life Gives You Tangerines", "Squid Game", "School of the Undead"... She even wore a T-shirt printed with a poster of the movie "Strange Female Lawyer Woo Young Woo".

At the end of the video, Martha Stewart has a face-to-face encounter with T.O.P that surprises viewers. The former BIGBANG member was seen showing his fondness for Martha by reenacting his hit "heart drop" scene in "Squid Game 2".

But what attracted the most attention was the soundtrack that sounded the hit " like JENNIE " by the main rapper BLACKPINK . This moment marks a special combination between the two artists who used to work under YG Entertainment, even though they did not appear in person. Under the comment section, many viewers expressed their excitement, reiterating the connection between the stars through "YG Family".

After leaving their old company for many reasons, T.O.P and Jennie have both made significant turns. Accordingly, the 29-year-old female rapper founded her own label called OA Entertainment in 2023 and signed a contract with Columbia Records (USA) to promote her solo career.

Her latest single called "ZEN", released on April 26, 2025, belongs to the album RUBY, has just been chosen as the official soundtrack for the trailer for Summer Game Fest 2025 - one of the world's largest annual gaming events.

"ZEN" is played throughout the video, bringing a ghostly but serene atmosphere, increasing the depth of the image without overwhelming the content. Many international audiences praised this choice, affirming that Jennie continues to prove her influence in both the field of music and global media.

As for T.O.P, the appearance in Netflix's promotional video marks a stepping stone in the process of reappearing after a period of absence. In 2017, the male rapper was involved in the noise of using banned substances and was sentenced to 10 months in suspended prison. After the incident, he withdrew from the entertainment industry, rarely appearing in public.

In 2022, T.O.P officially left YG Entertainment and in 2023 confirmed his separation from BIGBANG. There was almost no artistic activity during this time, so his return at the end of 2024 with "Squid Game" season 2 surprised the audience.

In the film, T.O.P takes on the role of Thanos (player number 230), a rapper who was once famous but lost his luck after making a loss-making investment in the electronic exchange. This character is built with an eccentric appearance, purple dyed hair, erratic behavior and a tragic element. According to director Hwang Dong-hyuk, the invitation of the former BIGBANG member was not for the purpose of supporting his re-appearance, but merely from the match between his personality and the role.

In the Korean market, T.O.P's acting encountered many mixed opinions. Some viewers criticized his awkward expression and asked him to apologize to the public before returning. However, in the international market, the reaction has been largely positive. Many people believe that the male rapper has brought a new breeze to the cast, contributing to the diversity of colors for the hit series.

T.O.P also expressed his appreciation for being featured in "Squid Game 2". In a recent interview, he said that the role helped him regain his inspiration in life and his desire to develop his acting career in the future. According to international media such as Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, the role of Thanos, although not the main character, creates a highlight in the sub-content line, which is symbolic in terms of contemporary society.

"Squid Game 2" is currently among the most watched series on the Netflix platform in the first quarter of 2025, according to Nielsen data. T.O.P's participation contributes to the project's reputation, and at the same time opens up opportunities for former BIGBANG members to regain their foothold in the entertainment industry after a long hiatus.
