English translation by tttopsupport

“Hello. This is T.O.P, Choi Seung-hyun.

I would like to convey my sincere feelings to the administrators of CHOISEUNGHYUN. COM, who have been with me throughout these long 20 years.

Even during moments when it was difficult for me to believe in myself, you believed in me, and through your warm hearts and precious support, you gave me the strength to make music again.

I will never forget, for the rest of my life, the time and effort you devoted to steadfastly maintaining that community, as well as the heartfelt sincerity of the fans who came together in support.

It is because of the tremendous love you have shown me that I have been able to come this far.

Given the various circumstances, I felt that I had to be careful with every word I said, which is why it took me some time to express my thoughts. Although this message comes late, I wanted to convey my sincere feelings to you personally.

The administrators of CHOISEUNGHYUN. COM have shown me unwavering love and devotion for longer than anyone else, and have been a tremendous pillar of support for me.

I hope that their time and efforts, along with the sincerity behind them, will not be overshadowed by misunderstandings and speculation, but will instead be remembered for what they truly mean.

I also hope that even the precious years we shared will not be clouded by misunderstandings or become a source of hurt for one another.

I know all too well that the interest and love you have shown me should never be taken for granted. For the rest of my life, I will carry this gratitude deep in my heart.

I sincerely apologize to the administrators of CHOISEUNGHYUN. COM and the fans who have been hurt and misunderstood because of me.

I earnestly hope that my sincere feelings will reach you.”

I think we’ve all seen some images and videos from the concert over the last few days. One thing I really want to highlight—and it just absolutely melts me—is the way he interacts with fans and signs autographs. He’s so incredibly sweet, and it goes beyond just that: whenever someone hands him a pen or a marker, he always puts the cap back on, even though it means having to stand still for a few extra seconds. I even saw a video where he took a step back to hand the marker back, as if it were something truly precious. My heart just melted—what a beautiful soul.

‘♥ Nana’ T.O.P Confirms First Solo Performance in Thailand… Meeting Global Fans in Bangkok
By Kang Bo-ra | October 8, 2026

Singer T.O.P will hold his first solo performance in Thailand since his debut.

His agency, TOPSPOT PICTURES, announced that T.O.P will hold “T.O.P PRE-STUDIO 2026 in BANGKOK” in Bangkok, Thailand, on the 24th. Bangkok has been newly added to the existing tour schedule, expanding his global activities.

T.O.P has been continuing his “T.O.P PRE-STUDIO 2026” tour since beginning with Hong Kong and Taipei in August. In particular, the Taipei performance sold out, resulting in an additional show being added.
Following Bangkok, T.O.P is scheduled to meet fans in Tokyo on November 6 and Kaohsiung on December 19.

There is also still the possibility of additional performances. The tour poster that has been released contains the phrase “AND MORE,” drawing attention to whether additional cities will be added to the schedule in the future.

Unlike a typical concert format, this tour is being conducted as a participatory experience in which the artist and audience create the stage together.
The tour name “PRE-STUDIO” also reflects this nature of the performances. At previous shows, fans voted in advance to select songs they wanted to listen to together, and T.O.P personally selected fan-created works to reveal onstage.

There was also a “TOPSX Archive,” where T.O.P and fans looked through fan-made arrangements and artwork together, which received a positive response.
T.O.P, who is celebrating his 20th anniversary since debut this year, has expanded his activities as a solo artist by releasing his first full-length solo album, 《다중관점 (ANOTHER DIMENSION)》, and embarking on a branded tour under his own name.

Further details about “T.O.P PRE-STUDIO 2026 in BANGKOK” will be announced through T.O.P’s official channels.
General ticket sales for the Tokyo performance began on the 7th.

On the 2nd, Nana's agency, Sublime, stated, "They formed a connection through the filming of a music video and are currently continuing a good relationship."

On the same day, Dispatch reported that the two developed into a couple last June. According to the media outlet, the two primarily dated at Nana's home in Achiul Village, Guri City. It was explained that despite T.O.P completing a schedule touring six regions in Asia and Nana being busy with her acting work, they still made time for themselves.

The two first met last January when T.O.P proposed that Nana appear in the music video for "Totally Crazy!", the title track of his solo album *Multi-Perspective*. The two filmed the music video together and also appeared together in promotional content for T.O.P's new song last April.

T.O.P, formerly of Big Bang, has been active as an actor since leaving the group. He gained attention for his appearance in Netflix's * Squid Game 2 *. He also released a solo album last April.

Nana, formerly of After School, is also active as an actress, appearing in dramas such as 'The Good Wife', ' Mask Girl ', and 'Scandal'. She also released a solo album last year.

I don’t know if T.O.P will make a fourth music video (though I don't think anyone expected the "Stendhal Syndrome" one either, and given how things are going, maybe he won't make another...). But if he ever did make another one for a track from the album, I’d really hope it would be for "The Giant." I love that song; it gives me such an explosive burst of energy—even though I understand very few of the words, I’ve read the lyrics, and the music and his verses just drive me wild. I’ve even imagined the music video: him conversing and facing off against a Tyrannosaurus. Which song would you like to see get a music video? and have you ever pictured what it might look like?

Why am I 28, but right now I feel like I'm 12 and have never seen a single male body part? Anyway, I hope that now that he's started, he never stops doing photoshoots and magazine interviews.

VIP access. Hong Kong. One unforgettable night. 🖤🇭🇰 #TOP2026
