Numerous fans visited the scene and congratulated TAEYANG and DAESUNG for their dischargement, while the two members eye-contacted with many fans while showing appreciation for waiting for them for such a long time.

On January, TAEYANG held a flea market titled ‘花答 – Charity flea market & auction with TAEYANG and Friends’ to make a positive influence for the world.

Meanwhile, BIGBANG renewed their contract with YG Entertainment, the agency they’ve spent over 20 years with since they were trainees, on March.
