The youngest member of Big Bang is planning for a solo career over in Japan starting in September.

Seungri and Daesung made an appearance on a Japanese radio program called "All Night Nippon" on June 19th, where Seungri revealed his future plans. He said that while the other members will be pursuing solo activities in Korea, he will be staying in the neighboring country from July to September to work on a variety of his own solo works. He added that he hoped to be making appearances on many Japanese programs.

A Japanese media outlet spokesperson did state that there were no final decisions on which programs Seungri would be appearing on, but he indeed was prepping to show up on variety programs. However, he will not be performing solo on music programs.

A Big Bang rep confirmed this saying, "There have been no confirmations. Seungri will begin his solo activities by starting on a variety show".

After Seungri's solo stint, he will be rejoining his group to continue the Big Bang world tour in Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
