K-Pop star Seungri has retired from entertainment following weeks of allegations made against him.
The pop star is part of the BIGBANG stable, but recent media reports linked Seungri to procuring sex for investors.
The allegations became widespread a few weeks ago, with South Korean police now stepping in to investigate.
