Big Bang's Seungri Spotted with Businessman, Continues to Surface Online

Former Big Bang member Seungri's recent activities have once again come to light.

A photograph of Seungri posing with a businessman recently surfaced on online communities, drawing considerable attention. The picture shows Seungri looking cheerful alongside an individual identified as the CEO of a Malaysian jewelry brand, who is believed to have met Seungri during his visit to Korea.

Seungri's whereabouts have been sporadically reported. In July, a photo of him alongside a woman claiming to be a cryptocurrency trader and luxury appraiser was shared. Back in March, he was seen with a female companion at a restaurant in Songpa District, Seoul.

Last January, he faced criticism after attending an event in Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, where he mentioned G-Dragon and danced to the song 'GOOD BOY,' a collaboration between G-Dragon and Taeyang. Seungri effectively exited the entertainment industry in 2019 following the Burning Sun scandal, departing from Big Bang and YG Entertainment.

He was indicted on nine charges, including procurement of prostitution, habitual gambling, and embezzlement, receiving a prison sentence of 1 year and 6 months. He was released in February 2023.

Seungri debuted as the maknae of the iconic K-pop group Big Bang in 2006, achieving massive global fame. Beyond his group activities, his solo music career and appearances on variety shows were also highly popular. Following his departure from the group and the legal issues, he has ceased all entertainment activities.
