Former BIGBANG member T.O.P and actress and singer Nana have officially confirmed that they are in a relationship.
On October 2, 2026, both stars’ agencies confirmed reports that the two had been dating for several months. T.O.P’s agency, Top Spot Pictures, said that they first met while filming his music video, grew closer afterward, and developed a romantic relationship around June. Nana’s agency, Sublime, also confirmed that the two are currently dating.
How T.O.P and Nana Met
T.O.P and Nana first became acquainted while working together on T.O.P’s music video earlier this year. Nana appeared alongside T.O.P in the music video for “Studio54,” the lead track from his first full-length solo album, Another Dimension, which was released in April 2026.
According to reports, the two continued to stay in contact after working together. Their relationship later developed into a romantic one around June.
The relationship became public after Korean media reported that the pair had been seen together on dates. Their agencies subsequently confirmed the relationship rather than denying the reports.
T.O.P’s Career
T.O.P, whose real name is Choi Seung-hyun, debuted as a member of BIGBANG in 2006. Alongside his music career, he established himself as an actor through films and television projects.
He later expanded his solo career and released his first full-length solo album, Another Dimension, in 2026. He also returned to acting with an appearance in Netflix’s Squid Game 2.
T.O.P announced his departure from BIGBANG in 2023 and has since focused on his individual career.
Nana’s Career
Nana, whose real name is Im Jin-ah, debuted with the girl group After School in 2009. She also became known through the group’s sub-unit Orange Caramel before expanding her career into acting.
She gained recognition for acting roles including The Good Wife, Mask Girl, and other television and film projects. In 2026, she also appeared in the Netflix series The Scandal.
A New Relationship Between Two Second-Generation Stars
The relationship has attracted significant attention because both T.O.P and Nana rose to fame as members of major second-generation K-pop groups before developing careers as actors.
T.O.P became known internationally through BIGBANG, while Nana built her career through After School and later established herself as an actress.
Unlike earlier dating rumors involving members of BIGBANG or After School, this relationship was directly acknowledged by both sides’ agencies.
The confirmation has made T.O.P and Nana one of the most talked-about celebrity couples in Korean entertainment in October 2026.
