In the latest exclusive report, the group is also participating in a recording for ‘Weekly Idol’ soon! YG Entertainment confirmed so, stating, “BIGBANG is appearing on ‘Weekly Idol’. Please look forward to it.”

In addition, an insider commented, “It’s true that BIGBANG have been refraining from variety shows for the past couple of years. However, Yang CEO’s opinions have changed this time. He thought of the fans, considering how they won’t be able to see all of BIGBANG together for awhile due to T.O.P‘s military enlistment.”

BIGBANG‘s Seungri finds himself in a Japanese scandal again.

Japanese media outlet ‘ShukanBunshun‘ recently published an interview with a 20-year-old woman who claims to have dated Seungri for over a year. She said that the two dated from 2013 for over a year. According to the interview, Seungri and the girl met at a membership-only karaoke bar. When the 20-year-old told Seungri that she was a fan, he contacted her and invited her back to his hotel.

The woman said, “At first he was suspicious and took my cell phone away. But when I started to talk about my work, he complimented me, saying, ‘You work hard.’ We then went into the shower together. He would sing Justin Timberlake songs. We always met at a hotel. Meals were always room service — like sandwich or curry, simple stuff.” 

‘Shukan Bunshun’ previously reported Seungri going into a hotel with a model on December 5, after the group’s December 4 concert.

A more detailed report on the woman who allegedly dated Seungri will be published on December 15 on ‘Shukan Bunshun.’
