Seungri has announced his retirement from the entertainment industry and BIGBANG:
Amid current controversies, BIGBANG's Seungri has announced he is retiring from the entertainment industry.

In a statement shared on his Instagram on March 11 he stated:

"At this point, I think it would be best if I retire from the entertainment industry. I decided on retiring from the entertainment industry as the issues that I caused a societal disturbance with are too major. Regarding the issues that are being investigated, I will be investigated diligently and reveal all the suspicions.

Receiving criticism and hate from the public for the past month and a half, and with all the investigative agencies in the country currently investigating me, I am even being cornered as a traitor of the nation. I personally cannot tolerate causing harm to everyone around me in order to save myself.

I sincerely thank all of the fans in and outside of Korea who have given me lots of love for the past 10 years, and I think this is where I stop, even if it’s at least [to protect] the honour of YG and BIGBANG.

Again, I am sorry and apologise once again. I have been thankful to everyone until now."
