'Speculation about joining Big Bang' that circulated several times, T.O.P finally stood before the public as a solo singer.
Singer T.O.P teamed up once again with art director Chae Kyung-sun of the Netflix series Squid Game Season.
T.O.P today (21st) at 5 p.m. released the music video for 'After the play ends,' one of the tracks on his first solo full-length album 'Multiple perspectives (ANOTHER DIMENSION),' on his official YouTube channel.
The music video featured the character 'Mojiri,' which captured T.O.P's childlike innocence and drew attention. In particular, because the theme of childhood was portrayed in animation form to visually express his musical colors, expectations have grown even higher.
Collaboration with art director Chae Kyung-sun is also one of the anticipated points. Earlier, through the music video for T.O.P's first full-length album's 'Completely crazy! (Studio54),' art director Chae Kyung-sun, who showcased unique art direction, completed a long-form work of more than six minutes with T.O.P over several months, promising a rich visual blend of music, video and art.
Returning with a music video like a surprise gift, T.O.P is currently meeting global fans with the brand tour 'T.O.P PRE-STUDIO 2026 (T.O.P Pre-Studio 2026)'. Starting with his first performance held recently in Hong Kong, he will continue the tour across Asia through Dec., including Taipei, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo and Kaohsiung.
In particular, 'T.O.P PRE-STUDIO 2026' departs from the framework of conventional fan concerts or fan meetings, proceeding with a format that communicates interactively with the audience rather than a one-way performance by the artist. It is expected to establish itself as a new form of tour that offers a glimpse of T.O.P's upcoming global projects.
T.O.P's music video 'After the play ends' was released today at 5 p.m. on his official YouTube channel.
Meanwhile, T.O.P played the rapper Thanos in the Netflix series 'Squid Game Season' season 2 released in Dec. 2024.
Also, the global idol group Big Bang, of which T.O.P was a member, simultaneously opened the digital single 'BiiiG' and its music video worldwide on various online music sites at 6 p.m. on the 19th. It was the group's first new song in four years and was released on their 20th anniversary, sweeping No. 1 on major domestic music sites' real-time charts.
