Big Bang's Seungri readmitted to hospital after fainting
Big Bang's Seungri is back in hospital, but this time it's for a high fever.
The singer reportedly fainted after his body temperature to 40 degrees celsius.
A representative for YG Entertainment confirmed today (Sept 30) that Seungri was "readmitted due to complications from a high fever," reported Kpop Starz.
It was only last week that Seungri was discharged from hospital following his car accident before he and the band were set to head for Singapore for the big YG Family concert.

A representative from YG Entertainment stated, "Seungri was hastily discharged from the hospital early on Thursday (Sept 25) in order to prepare for the Incheon Asian Game's closing ceremony, as well as the police investigation," the publication added.
He stayed in hospital for about two weeks for injuries he sustained after the accident on a Friday (Sept 12) earlier this month.
According to Kpop Starz, South Korean authorities are still investigating the cause of the accident but the singer's management have already ruled out drunk driving despite Seungri leaving from a party before the accident happened.
In the statement YG Entertainment released to Newsen, they admitted that Seungri may have left the hospital too prematurely.
It said: "We think that getting discharged from the hospital prematurely has caused this problem. He will be receiving treatment at the hospital and (we will) watch his condition."
