TOP Faces Backlash for Erasing BIGBANG's G-Dragon from His Social Media: A Sign of Severed Ties?
Former BIGBANG member, TOP, has recently come under fire from fans and netizens for removing all traces of his ex-bandmate, G-Dragon, from his Instagram account. This unexpected move has sparked a wave of speculation and criticism, with many questioning the motives behind his actions.
On July 19, an online post highlighted that TOP had removed G-Dragon from his Instagram account. The post also noted that G-Dragon had reciprocated the action, leading to increased curiosity and attention from the K-pop community. Fans noticed that both idols had disappeared from each other's accounts, including the likes that G-Dragon had given to TOP's posts.
The reaction from netizens was mixed, with some expressing indifference, stating that TOP was the first to leave the group, so his actions were not surprising. Others, however, were puzzled by the move, considering the long-standing relationship between the two artists who have been bandmates for many years.
Critics were quick to voice their opinions, with comments such as, "TOP is honestly a b**ch until the very end," and "He never grew up, his mental age never changed, and only his body did. Why is he leaving in such an obnoxious manner?"
However, some netizens defended TOP, arguing that he was merely doing what he wanted when he left BIGBANG and that the criticism was pointless. They pointed out that TOP was a troubled individual whose sensibilities were not suited for celebrity life. They also highlighted that people change over time and 'forever' doesn't exist in actual human relationships.
TOP confirmed his withdrawal from BIGBANG on May 31, following a conversation with a VIP (BIGBANG fan) who asked about his status as a member of the group. He stated, "I have already withdrawn. I've already told you guys that I'm leaving BIGBANG, and that I'm now facing a new chapter in my life since last year."
The sudden removal of G-Dragon from TOP's social media has undoubtedly stirred up controversy and speculation among fans and netizens alike. As the dust settles, many are left wondering about the future of these two artists and their relationship.
