Controversy remains outside the work. Top was sentenced to two years of probation in 2016 for smoking cannabis. The incident deprived Top of his status as a police officer and re-served as a social service worker, but he was embroiled in allegations of preferential treatment, and caused controversy by stopping his car in a disabled parking area on his last day of work in July 2019. When the accusation came out that 'Don't think about returning to it', the tower "I don't intend to do that." We're not making a comeback in Korea"I announced my retirement.

Since then, Top has seemed to be turning his eyes to the wine business and withdrawal from Big Bang. However, he suddenly reversed his retirement announcement and declared his return to the 'Squid Game 2'. It also disappointed fans with the appearance of erasing all careers related to Big Bang. To make matters worse, suspicions arose that the `Squid Game 2' was also based on Lee Jung-jae and Lee Byung-hun.




After such various controversies, the tower opens its mouth. As it is the first time in six years that Top has announced his position in person since he announced his retirement in 2019, attention is being paid to what kind of answer he will give.
