T.O.P (Choi Seung-hyun), a former member of K-pop group Big Bang, and actor Nana were spotted together at a birthday cafe within a month of publicly confirming their relationship.

On Monday, the operator of a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, posted a video on social media showing the couple's visit. The cafe had been specially decorated by fans to celebrate T.O.P's birthday, which falls on Wednesday.

The video shows T.O.P walking through the cafe and looking over the decorations and photos fans had prepared. Nana accompanied T.O.P during the visit.

The cafe operator tagged both of their social media accounts when sharing the post. The appearance drew considerable online attention, as it marked the couple's first public outing together since they confirmed their relationship last month.

T.O.P and Nana acknowledged their relationship on Oct. 2. The two met while filming a music video and began dating in June.

After the news broke, Nana told fans she felt a little embarrassed but said she intended to continue the relationship well. Their subsequent public appearances together have offered glimpses of the couple's life since going public.

Meanwhile, T.O.P recently issued an apology to fans who have supported him for years.

The fan site "Choiseunghyun.com" announced it was shutting down, citing communication issues, and T.O.P took to social media on Sunday to express both gratitude and regret toward his fans.

T.O.P acknowledged the fans who had encouraged him to return to music during a difficult period and apologized to the fan site operators and supporters who had been hurt by his actions.
