According to All Kpop, on February 11, T.O.P's representative confirmed that the male rapper's opinion on returning to the group Big Bang remains unchanged from before.
"The name 'T.O.P' in the introduction on social media has been around for a long time, it has not been added or changed. T.O.P's views on Big Bang are still the same as what he expressed in a recent interview," T.O.P's representative emphasized.

Previously, on social networks, there were rumors that T.O.P would return to Big Bang when Big Bang's official Youtube account listed the full names of the 4 members as "G-Dragon, Taeyang, T.O.P, Daesung".
In addition, on his personal page, the male rapper added the stage name T.O.P before his real name, making fans even more hopeful about Big Bang's reunion.
However, the official statement from T.O.P has dispelled doubts about the rapper's return to the group Big Bang.

In a recent interview after participating in "Squid Game 2", T.O.P frankly said that he felt it was not suitable to return to Big Bang after leaving the group.
“After I was discharged from the military, I felt that I had caused too much damage to Big Bang. I decided to leave because I didn't want to cause more trouble for the group.
When my contract ended, I chose to leave after the 'Still Life' project. I felt ashamed to return to Big Bang. If I worked alone, I could take full responsibility for past mistakes, but if I rejoined the group, it would involve the members. I didn't want to be a burden to them."
T.O.P's frank statement made fans disappointed, but many people sympathized with the rapper's decision.
