Boy bang Big Bang member T.O.P seems to be set to appear in the promotional video for YG Entertainment labelmate Gummy's Japan debut.
T.O.P uploaded a photograph of himself with a pigeon on his shoulder on his me2day account on Thursday, with a message attached saying, "For Gummy's Japan debut. The title P/V... I'm back with director Lee Jae-han for the first time since "71 Into The Fire." Please look forward to it."
"71 Into the Fire," helmed by Lee, was a war movie T.O.P starred in last year with top Korean actors Kwon Sang-woo, Kim Seung-woo and Cha Seung-won.
Nonetheless, this will not be the first time T.O.P is lending his support for Gummy's release -- he did a featuring for "I'm Sorry, the title track to her fourth studio album released in 2008, as well as starring in the music video for it.
Born Choi Seung-hyun, T.O.P made his debut in 2006 as the rapper in his popular quintet which has released several albums and hit songs such as "Lies" and "Haru Haru" and they crossed over to the Japanese music market in 2009 where they have been received well too.
He expanded his career into acting with his appearances in TV series "I Am Sam" and in the blockbuster smash hit "IRIS," where he played an assassin.
