This is a song from the MADE SERIES that began in 2015, and it feels like the last activity with all the members together before enlistment.

I think many fans listened to this while hoping for the day all the members would safely complete their military service and return.
It’s a beautiful ballad.

A track packed with the allure of BIGBANG, who reign as K-POP legends.
Its striking, innovative expression likens the intensity of love to a “beautiful hangover.” Released in August 2010, it made a powerful impact on Japanese fans as well.
The up-tempo beat and passionate lyrics are perfectly matched, vividly conveying the feeling of being intoxicated by love.
Recommended for those who want to savor the thrill and afterglow of romance.
The music video is also a must-see, offering a visual feast that immerses you in the song’s world.

BIGBANG is a male artist group that has been active since the 2000s.
They are a global music group recognized not only across Asia but also in Europe and the United States.
“Still Life” was released in 2022.
It’s an epic rock ballad that embraces a wide range of emotions.
The lyrics about life pair beautifully with the warm band sound, and their pure, soulful vocals are sure to soothe you.

The lyrics seem open to various interpretations depending on the listener.
It’s simple, yet a masterpiece that gently lingers after you’ve listened.
Flower RoadBIGBANG
It was released digitally in Japan on March 15, 2018.
At the time of release, four members were serving in the military, and the song was created with heartfelt thoughts toward their enlistment.

I still can’t forget the shock I felt when I first heard this song.
G-DRAGON’s voice—making you wonder, “Where is that coming from?!”—is striking, and it shapes the rhythm and vibe of the track so perfectly that all I can say is it’s amazing.
A stylishly crafted song.

Let me hear your voice.BIGBANG
This is a song included on the 2011 album BIGBANG 2.
It’s a gentle ballad that soothes the heart and is extremely popular at concerts.
The members’ flawless Japanese singing is dazzling to see.
BIGBANG’s members are exceptionally skilled at immersing themselves in a song’s emotions, which makes heartfelt tracks like this all the more special.
LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVEBIGBANG
This is a track from BIGBANG’s fourth release in the MADE SERIES, the album “E,” which marked their 2015 comeback.
The title means “Let’s Not Fall in Love,” and the song portrays the cute, conflicted feelings of a man and woman just beginning to fall in love.
In the music video, each member plays one half of a couple, which might leave fans breathless with envy.
It’s a very cute song.
HaruHaru -Japanese Version-BIGBANG
Released in 2008, this is a ballad whose Korean title means “day by day,” featuring a dramatic sound themed around heartbreaking breakups and partings.
It’s a signature song that became extremely popular in Japan as well, with a Japanese version released later.
Since it’s sung by five members, some parts have overlapping melodies, but the main melody line is very easy to follow, so even first-time listeners should find it easy to learn.
However, because it’s such a sorrowful song, adding too much expressiveness might actually lower your score.
For scoring, try singing as plainly as possible at first, then adjust little by little if your expressiveness ends up being too low.
