Jimin also had shown interest in working with the BIG BANG member since his debut as a member of BTS in 2013.
Long-awaited return
Taeyang’s new digital single comes six years after his last solo album ‘White Night,’ before heading off in 2018 to complete mandatory military service in South Korea. In April of last year, the multi-faceted artist dropped the track ‘Still Life’ alongside his bandmates.
It’s also his first release after signing with The Black Label, a subsidiary of his former agency YG Entertainment run by Teddy Park. Other BIG BANG members T.O.P and Daesung left, except G-Dragon.
Taeyang — born Dong Youngbae — has been a household name since making being part of the trailblazing K-pop group BIG BANG since its debut in 2006. He released various solo hits such as ‘Only Look at Me,’ ‘Eyes, Nose, Lips,’ ‘Ringa Linga,’ and ‘Wedding Dress.’
