BIGBANG member T.O.P celebrates his 29th birthday on Nov. 4 and fans took to the internet to celebrate his day. Loving fans of T.O.P created a hashtag which trended on the social networking site Twitter.
To celebrate T.O.P's birthday, fans created a hashtag #HappyTOPDay and uploaded all of T.O.P's silly moments which made the 29-year old rapper and actor so adorable. Co-band mate G-Dragon and Taeyang, even participated and posted a photo of T.O.P on their Instagram accounts, Soompi reported.
Meanwhile, media outlets recently begun reporting about BIGBANG's mandatory service requirement. The most appalling word to hear to any male idol group fans, it looks like the five members are considering to enlist around the same time.
Allkpop reported that at the end of the year or early 2017, birthday boy T.O.P needs to enlist in the military as he can no longer delay his mandatory service. In order to prevent a longer hiatus, band members G-Dragon, Seungri, Daesung, and Taeyang are planning to serve in the military around the same period.
Although the four members have the option to delay their enlistment a little further, the members clear believe that enlisting together all at once is their best option. It may be horrifying to imagine a couple of years without BIGBANG, but it seems like the group are trying their best for the V.I.Ps.
The group also unveils that they will release an album this year before they start enlisting for their mandatory military service. T.O.P also recently took an exam to become a conscripted policeman.
Conscription or the mandatory military service is legislated in South Korea and applies to males aged between 18 and 35. After conscripts finish their military service, they are automatically placed on the reserve roster, and are obligated to attend a few days of annual military training for six years.
