Following claims that Seungri was planning to open a nightclub in Hong Kong, one of the nation's biggest celebrity heirs is drawing attention to his message to the ex-BIGBANG member.

Currently, Seungri is back in the spotlight after the BBC released a documentary documenting the 2018-2019 "Burning Sun" scandal, which centered around Seungri and his circle of friends. Seungri's club, Burning Sun, was identified for illegal activity, such as drug abuse and date rape, sexual harassment and assault, illegal filming of sexual activity (oftentimes non-consensual), and more.
