T.O.P of Big Bang has finally regained consciousness after overdosing on anti-anxiety drug called benzodiazepines earlier this week. The 29-year-rapper was spotted leaving Ewha University Hospital on Friday afternoon, June 9. T.O.P also publicly apologized for his marijuana scandal after previously releasing a handwritten apology letter.
T.O.P was sitting on a wheelchair as he was being taken out of the hospital. The "Zutter" rapper appeared to have lost some weight following his hospitalization. When asked about his illegal drug use, T.O.P simply said, "I apologize." He was then carried into a car by several people.
The "Bang Bang Bang" rapper will be transferring to a different hospital where he will receive further treatment. "T.O.P will be moving to a different hospital to continue treatment and is currently going through necessary procedures to move," a representative of Ewha University Hospital stated.
T.O.P's family decided to move him to a different hospital because Ewha does not have private rooms. Information regarding which hospital T.O.P will be transferred to remains classified. "Due to [T.O.P's mother]'s request, we cannot reveal which hospital he will be moving to," the representative stated.
The "Tazza: The Hidden Card" star will attend his court hearing on June 29. If he's not sentenced to jail, he will have to re-enlist in the military as a public service worker in order to fulfill his mandatory military service.
