Big Bang is a South Korean boy band formed by YG Entertainment. The group consist of four-member:- G-Dargon, T.O.P, Taeyang and Daesung. Originally a five-piece band, Seungi departed from the group on March 19. Dubbed the “King of K-pop”, they helped spread the Korean Wave internationally and are one of the most influential acts in K-pop history.

 

After four years of hiatus due to the member’s mandatory military duties, the group’s management agency said this spring boy band group Big Bang will come back to the K-pop scene. “BIGBANG” will drop a new song in the coming spring, YG Entertainment said in a press release. ” The group has completed its recording for the new song and is going to film a music video of  the song.”

The date of the group’s return and the title of the new song, however, remain unknown. Debuting in 2006 as a five-member group, BIGBANG has released a number of hit songs, such as “Lies,” “Last Farewell,” “Fantastic Baby” and “Bang Bang Bang,” standing in the forefront of an Aisa-wide boom of Korean pop music.

Seungi, who was expelled from the band and YG Entertainment after a nightclub associated with him came under investigation over drug use and sexual abuse. He is currently serving his term in a military prison after being sentenced to a three-year prison term on nine charges, including prostitution mediation and overseas gambling, in August last year. The group main rapper T.O.P, who received a suspended prison sentence for smoking weed in 2017,  is expected to stay away from the music scene for the time being. YG said he will end his contract with the agency soon after the group’s comeback and explore possibilities as an artist and businessman.

“We decided to respect his opinion that he wants to expand the realm of his individual activities not only as a member of BIGBANG and discussed the matter well with other members,” said the company. “he will join BIGBANG activities any time if he is available.”
