Big Bang's agency YG Entertainment recently made a surprise visit to an exhibition held in Japan claiming, 'Big Bang will release their new album this summer and fans who have waited so long will finally be able to see the group altogether."

On the 21, Big Bang, with the exception of TOP, had made a surprise appearance at the 'YG Exhibition in Japan' at Mitsui Outlet Park in Kisarazu, Chiba, Japan.

Included in the exhibition is a '3D live hologram theater' in which audiences are able to watch YG artists such as Psy, Big Bang and 2NE1 in live action. The hologram displays various videos and media facades of the selected artists.

In addition, another section called the 'YG Collection' displays the various outfits that YG artists had used on their on-stage live performances as well as valuable possessions of each individual artist. A section named 'Live Photo Service' allows fans to simulate taking photos with the artists. To celebrate the exhibition, a wide selection of prizes and gifts as well as food will be sold.

Japan's top music chart website Oricon, who became aware of the exhibition through the news, made an appearance and conducted short interviews with the members. Seungri said, "Since we all sweat a lot during our performances, we smell like sweat all the time". Taeyang joked, "That's just him", causing laughter in the scene.

In addition Seungri claimed, "We want to release an album this upcoming summer. Through the TV and various events, we want to show ourselves as a group."

Big Bang had first made their desire to comeback as a group during the January 26, '+a In Seoul' concert. Leader G-Dragon had announced that the group would be making a comeback as a complete unit by the summer of 2014 and added, "We are preparing extensively for it."
