LAST FAREWELLBIGBANG
From the MV’s opening, which feels like the start of a drama, I can’t take my eyes off it.
Then the high-energy sound kicks in and grabs my heart all at once.
It’s an upbeat track, yet never noisy—perhaps that’s thanks to their vocals.
It’s a song I want to listen to on a nighttime drive.

It portrays the feelings of a loving couple through vocal back-and-forth with Bom.
A romantic piece.
FXXK ITBIGBANG
It’s a track included in the complete version of the album released as part of the MADE SERIES, the 2016 release MADE.
When you fall in love, your heart races, you can’t speak well, and so many things don’t go your way.
This song expresses those feelings with a “Damn it, whatever” attitude.
The music video is heartwarming, showing BIGBANG as their natural, close-knit selves.
TELL ME GOODBYEBIGBANG
It was the fourth single, released on June 9, 2010, and was used as the theme song for the TBS Korean drama “IRIS.” It is also known for having received the Excellence Work Award at the Japan Record Awards.
Despite its slow tempo, it is a masterpiece intricately interweaving rap, vocals, and chorus in a crosswoven style.
VIPBIGBANG
This track is included on the single “BIGBANG Is V.I.P,” released in 2006 shortly after their debut in Korea.
It’s a dance song that emphasizes their rap skills.
The lyrics convey the determination of the members who, after their trainee days, finally debuted, and you can feel their strong resolve and momentum—like “We’re going to make it big in the K-pop scene!” Their youthful edge is endearingly fresh.
It’s impressive how they went on to maintain their position at the top in the fast-changing world of idols.
HaruHaru～Japanese Ver.～BIGBANG
HARUHARU, which can be considered a signature song of BIGBANG, a pioneering presence in K-POP, was released in their home country and later in a Japanese-language version as well.
The song first drew attention with its original domestic music video.
In the story, the girlfriend of the man played by G-DRAGON, who has been told he has only a short time left to live, hides the truth from him and informs his friends instead.
The direction in the scene where she asks them to keep it from G-DRAGON as much as possible is so moving that it is impossible to watch without tears.
