Despite the fact that YG Entertainment announced that BIGBANG would make their 2022 comeback very soon along with the possible release date, T.O.P was still leaving the company. What happened? Check out his reason below.

YG Entertainment Announced BIGBANG to Make 2022 Comeback & Possible Date

After years of anxiously waiting, “V.I.P” fans of BIGBANG can celebrate and shout in excitement! YG Entertainment finally announced that BIGBANG would make their 2022 comeback very soon.

On February 7, YG Entertainment officially stated that BIGBANG will be releasing a new song very soon. This will be the long-awaited return of the four-person ensemble, BIGBANG, after their last comeback in March 2018, “Flower Road”.

“BIGBANG will be releasing a new song this spring.”

BIGBANG is Preparing for New Music Video

Along with the comeback announcement, YG Entertainment also stated that BIGBANG has finished recording for their new song. Now, they are preparing for the filming of the music video.

“BIGBANG has already completed recording their new song, and they are currently preparing to shoot the music video.”

This is such relieving news for the fans because their previous “Flower Road” comeback didn’t have either any Music Video or promotional activities. Therefore, many people thought that “Flower Road” was their final song before disbanding. After all, the group had to go through a long hiatus because of the members’ mandatory military service, which they did in turns starting from T.O.P in 2017.

However, today BIGBANG proved that they have managed to return stronger as a group with their new comeback announcement in 2022. They have fulfilled their promise to their “V.I.P” fans that they previously conveyed with “Flower Road”: things will get better from now on, and wish us the best of luck.

And things truly have gotten better.

BIGBANG T.O.P Officially Leaving YG Entertainment

Unfortunately, despite the fantastic news of their 2022 comeback, BIGBANG member T.O.P has apparently reported to be leaving YG Entertainment. After 16 years of career with the company, T.O.P decided to move on to a fresh new start.

It doesn’t mean that T.O.P will leave BIGBANG too, though. In fact, YG Entertainment also stated that T.O.P will still participate in the group’s activities as long as the condition is suitable.

“As long as the conditions are right, T.O.P will always participate in BIGBANG’s activities whenever he is able.”

Why T.O.P Leaving YG Entertainment?

According to YG Entertainment, despite the fact that BIGBANG will make 2022 comeback, T.O.P decided to leave YG Entertainment to broaden his activities as a solo artist. And since he will be able to do it better outside of YG Entertainment, the BIGBANG lead rapper decided to leave the company.

Regarding this decision, YG Entertainment also further elaborated that he had come in agreement with the other BIGBANG members.

“T.O.P’s exclusive contract with YG has ended. Therefore, he will be taking on a wide variety of new challenges as both an artist and an entrepreneur. We respected his desire to broaden the scope of his solo activities aside from just his promotions with BIGBANG. Also, he successfully came to an agreement about this with the other members.”

When is BIGBANG 2022 Comeback Date?

Finally, as of today, the company has yet provided the exact date for BIGBANG 2022 comeback. However, since the group has completed recording the song and just started filming the music video, we can expect the BIGBANG comeback date to be sometime in April or May 2022.
