BIGBANG

Lee Seung-hyun, better known by the stage names Seungri and V.I, is a South Korean former singer-songwriter and was a member of the South Korean boy band BigBang formed by YG Entertainment. A key figure of the Burning Sun scandal, he was convicted in 2020 for prostitution mediation and embezzlement. In the mid-2000s, Seungri rose to prominence as a member of the South Korean boy band BigBang. With the release of the group's second studio album Remember, which included a solo performance by Seungri, he began to adopt a more mature image as an artist. Seungri furthered this image with the release of his chart-topping EP, V.V.I.P. It yielded two singles: "VVIP" and "What Can I Do". His second Korean EP Let's Talk About Love fared better, becoming his second number one album with 80,000 copies sold. It was supported by "Gotta Talk to You", which was later re-released in Japan as his first full Japanese studio album, with re-recordings of his previous songs in Japanese. He then released his first Korean studio album, The Great Seungri.
