According to Japanese media outlet Nikkan Sports, T.O.P got emotional during a concert in Japan while talking about temporarily leaving BIGBANG for his military enlistment.

It’s reported that T.O.P was greatly touched by an event prepared by his fans, and shed tears, saying, “The stage is always important but the dorm tour, and especially today’s stage, holds extra special meaning. People say there isn’t much time left of the 5 of us together but I think the 5 of us will be together forever.”

He continued, “A lot of things have happened but the 5 of us meeting each other is my most precious experience. Also, I have a favor to ask my fans. Be with us so the 5 of us can continue to be together. Thank you.”

After the concert, T.O.P also left a short video greeting fans with the message, “We will be saying goodbye temporarily. Stay healthy. I think I’ll miss you guys very much. I’ll come back after a lot of growth.”

T.O.P is scheduled to enlist as a conscripted policeman in February of 2017.
