During BIGBANG's concert in Japan, T.O.P got emotional when talks about his nearing enlistment came up. The 29-year old rapper is set for his mandatory military enlistment early next year.
Reports revealed that T.O.P was greatly moved by an event prepared by his fans. Emotionally, the rapper revealed, "The stage is always important but the dorm tour, and especially today's stage, hold 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," Allkpop has learned.
T.O.P continued that a lot of things have happened but meeting his fellow band mates is his most precious experience. He even asked his fans a favor to continue supporting BIGBANG despite his absence.
After the group's concert in Japan, T.O.P posted a video on his Instagram account. The post is captioned in Japanese, "Goodbye for now. Please stay healthy. I will miss you a lot. I'll mature with that longing and comeback again," as translated by Soompi.
In the video, the rapper can be seen expressing his affection by waving and shooting a finger heart for his fans. T.O.P capped off his farewell through his final Japanese performance with fellow band mates G-Dragon, Taeyang, Daesung, and Seungri before officially joining the military on February 2017.

Meanwhile, BIGBANG's fans all over the world are furious after they discovered that the Russian singer Albina released a song which appears to be a copy of Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose, Lips." The 37-year old singer released her song on Dec. 28 with a title "I Love You."
After hearing Albina's song "I Love You," questions from netizens arise that the melody and instrumental of the Russian singer's new song is the same with Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose, Lips." In the description box of the music video, the singer is also listed as the songwriter and composer. It is worth noting that the BIGBANG member's "Eyes, Nose, Lips" was released in 2014.
