TOP releases album after "Squid Game 2", BIGBANG reunion is not far away?

TOP is making a strong comeback through the hit series - Squid Game and in an interview, his hint about releasing a solo album immediately exploded the internet.

To K-pop fans and the Korean public, TOP was once one of the most talented and unique rappers of his generation. However, after a drug scanda.l in 2017, culminating in his announcement to leave BIGBANG in 2023, he almost completely withdrew from the spotlight. His absence lasted long enough for many to think that the once-famous idol's career might have ended.

Therefore, TOP's return as Thanos in "Squid Game 2" was a big surprise. Although he may not appear throughout the entire film, the rapper was still invited to many promotional events and appeared in public after many years of hiding.

Recently, in an interview with the "Award Buzz" channel, when asked a seemingly harmless question about what he would do if he were Thanos to cause trouble for everyone, TOP humorously replied: "I would do like Thanos in 'Avengers' and take all the mone.y for myself". But what caught the attention and made fans stir the most was the next sentence: "Because my solo album is about to be released!".

Although it is unclear whether this statement is a hint about a real musical comeback, or just a "half-joking, half-serious" line related to TOP's character Thanos, fans were immediately "on the edge of their seats".

Many people think that this is TOP's way of "teasing" his official return to music after a long period of silence, especially since he is always known for his unique style, not following the traditional media path and often having hidden ways of expression.

At this time, the VIP community is even more excited when thinking about the prospect of BIGBANG reuniting with all 4 members, including TOP, G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung . Especially when in 2026 the group officially enters the milestone of 2 decades of artistic activities and the reunion of the boys will be more meaningful than ever.

If this musical comeback really happens, this will not only be a new milestone in TOP's career but also a testament to his determination and will to start over. Can the male rapper overcome the shadow of the past and social prejudice to once again affirm his position in the music industry?

In fact, TOP’s story is not unique in the Korean entertainment industry. The road to recovery after a scanda.l, especially one involving illegal drug.s, is always extremely thorny and challenging for stars. The Korean public is notoriously strict and often finds it difficult to accept that artists involved in scandals can easily return to work.

However, there are still successful cases in redeeming themselves and reaffirming themselves, although this process requires perseverance, many times more effort and a project that is heavy enough to heat up the image. For TOP, participating in "Squid Game 2" is the best "launching pad".

Having the former BIGBANG member in the cast of such a high-profile production could help him reach a huge audience around the world who may not know much about his scandalous past, and see him in a new light.

And TOP succeeded when the male rapper's appeal even surpassed the main cast in the work. To the point that Netflix showed favor by inviting him to attend the press conference to announce "Squid Game 3" even though he did not participate in acting in this part of the film.

Also at the event, director Hwang Dong Hyuk confirmed that season 3 will be the official end of the series and there are no plans to continue with season 4, but left open the possibility of making a spin-off if there is a suitable story. This shows the importance and lasting influence of the series, bringing a "golden" opportunity for those who are involved.
