With G-Dragon and T.O.P’s unit debut well underway, many have been wondering as to whether the duo would be making their appearances on variety shows.

At their “World Premiere“, held on December 14th, the two revealed that they had plans to appear on variety programs in order to thank their patient fans. ”This album is important to us, and we’re planning on making appearances on either variety programs or radio shows, so please anticipate it,” they said.



Unlike the other Big Bang members (such as Seungri and Daesung, who have already appeared as either fixed cast members or frequent guests on variety shows), G-Dragon and T.O.P focused entirely on their personal solo activities or acting.

Addressing the high interest in their variety show appearances, a representative of YG Entertainment stated, “There is nothing confirmed on which variety program G-Dragon and T.O.P will appear in just yet.”

Industry representatives have revealed that the possibility of the duo appearing on MBC’s “Knee-Drop Guru” and SBS’s “Strong Heart” are high. Should they appear on “Knee-Drop Guru,” representatives revealed that the effect of their appearance for other broadcast companies will be massive. Since the program focuses on ‘confessions,’ only senior celebrities are cast on the show and idols have always been avoided (the Wonder Girls appeared only with Park Jin Young as the focus); thus, the duo’s appearance will be a breakthrough first for the show.

The duo has certainly set the industry abuzz with their return, and the spotlight now remains fixed on their future variety show appearances.
