Here's what happened.
TOP Criticized for Removing BIGBANG Traces of G-Dragon on Social Media
On July 19, an online post was made by an author, who brought up that T.O.P had removed G-Dragon from Instagram.
The post also included that G-Dragon did the same, gaining the curiosity and attention of the K-pop community. According to fans, both idols have disappeared from each other's accounts, as well as the likes that G-Dragon gave on T.O.P's Instagram.
Netizens remarked that they couldn't care less, expressing there's no point in delving it since he was the first one to leave the group. Some were perplexed about the removal, given how many years the two members have been bandmates.
Read their comments below:
- "Who cares? He was the first one to erase himself from BIGBANG."
- "Wow, they really cut their ties so fast."
- "TOP is honestly a b**ch until the very end."
- "This just simply shows how fickle relationships between people are. They've known each other for almost 20 years. Of course, this is normal even with families."
- "It's also because TOP only lives in his own mind and predicting him is damn impossible."
- "He never grew up, his mental age never changed, and only his body did. Why is he leaving in such an obnoxious manner?"
- "What a lunatic."

Meanwhile, some netizens countered the negative remarks. They claimed how TOP just simply did what he wanted when he left BIGBANG and called out the criticism as pointless.
- "TOP is just a troubled guy. His sensibilities were not made to function for celebrity life."
- "Both VIPs and K-netizens wanted him gone, so he decided to leave. I'm not a fan of him, but this man did exactly just that so why are people getting mad?"
- "Why are they going mad over this? He is obviously showing clear boundaries and wants to get out from the group. People have been pestering him about it. He's only having a good time-out."
- "No one will ever know what happened between them. People change over time and 'forever' doesn't exist in actual human relationships."
Meanwhile, T.O.P confirmed his withdrawal from BIGBANG on May 31. The sudden news came out when a VIP asked about the idol's status as member from BIGBANG. T.O.P also followed up that he's now going to embark on a new journey in his career.
Their conversation is as follows:
VIP: "T.O.P did you leave BIGBANG?"
TOP: "I have already withdrawn. I've already told you gust that I'm leaving BIGBANG, and that I'm now facing a new chapter in my life since last year."
