[Interview | Trans] Part 2 of Tazza Hand of God Interview with TOP: about BIGBANG

TOP : I'm agressively working on my solo album now. The promotion will be after BIGBANG's album.

TOP : 1~2 years are passing so fast while I'm working on the solo album and acting at the same time

TOP : There's no songs I'm satisfied with yet. We, BB, are a team that can't release albums if we are not satisfied with the songs since we make the songs ourselves. It's meaningless to set a deadline

TOP : We have to care about people and the company's expectations. That's why I think more carefully.

TOP : I sometimes drink beer with WINNER since one year ago. I want to be a person who's like a friend to them

TOP: It's hard to predict when to come back cuz 5 members are so busy, but BB's new album will be out before my solo and I will be releasing a solo album and promoting it sometime for sure.

TOP : I was so nervous and shy when taking the naked-scene, but I hid my feeling. I was 300% shy actually

TOP: I don't like it when something cold or someone touches my skin. I wear long sleeved shirt even when I'm sleeping

TOP : There were two actresses beside me and two senior actors in front of me for the naked-scene..

TOP : I will be taking a skin-exposing scene again if I have to film it as an actor later, but...

Additional summary by bigbangupdates:

“We haven’t released a BIGBANG album for 3 years,” Choi Seunghyun said during an interview with Newsen at a cafe in Samcheongdong, Seoul on September 1.

Choi Seunghyun, who’s currently promoting both as a singer and actor said, “Honestly, the members are so busy that it’s hard to meet up with everyone. We got together at a concert in China recently, and while eating, we said, ‘Let’s seriously work on our songs.’ However, it’s hard to say when exactly we will release an album, whether this year or next year.”

He continued, “Taeyang has a Japanese concert tour right now, and starting next month, Daesung will release an album in Japan and promote. Seungri also has a lot of appearances/shows in Japan, and Jiyong is taking a quick break. I want to start working on BIGBANG’s album as soon as possible in line with our schedules.”

He added, “We’re planning to prepare on the album aggressively after we finish our world tour* this year.”
