Big Bang Special Event is a series of fan meeting events by Big Bang, which began in 2016 with 8 shows in Japan and South Korea, held alongside their 10th anniversary tour 0.TO.10. All members attended the first leg of the tour, however T.O.P missed all shows of the second leg, due to his two-year mandatory military service in South Korea.
