BIGBANG perform on the stage during a concert at the K-Collection In Seoul on March 11, 2012 in Seoul, South Korea.

BIGBANG seems to be getting on with life without their lead rapper T.O.P. It has been confirmed that the boy band will continue with their activities as a four-member group.

Although T.O.P enlisted in the military last week, BIGBANG will be going on a Japan dome tour, which is scheduled to kick off in May, with the remaining four members of the group; G-Dragon, Taeyang, Daesung and Seungri. As part of the tour, the idol group will be stopping over in three cities; Fukuoka's Yahuoku Dome on May 27, the Tokyo Dome on May 30 and 31, and Osaka's Gyocera Dome on June 3, and 4.

The group members desires to meet their fans as soon as possible, Soompi quoted them as saying. There are reports claiming that the boy band has also prepared a series of new performances for the upcoming dome tour.

BIGBANG has had several successful dome tours since their first tour in 2013 and has attracted a total of more than 780,000 fans over the years. Fans are already waiting for ticket sales to open up for the upcoming tour.

T.O.P, who is BIGBANG's main rapper and the oldest member of the group at 29, started military training along with JYJ's Junsu at the Nonsan Army Training Center on Feb. 9, according to the same publication. Both K-Pop idols will serve as conscripted policemen during their mandatory military service.

Both artists will be discharged from military service in November 2018. T.O.P is the first among five BIGBANG members to enter the military. G-Dragon and Taeyang will enlist in 2017 and will then be followed by Daesung and Seungri in 2018 and 2019, respectively.

T.O.P wanted to keep his enlistment quiet and low-key but fans turned up in thousands to greet him and Junsu before they started their training. Check out the video footage below:
