BIGBANG’s “MADE” Album Tops Gaon Chart For Two Consecutive Months

[OSEN=선미경 기자] BIGBANG’s album took the No.1 spot on the Gaon Album Chart, proving that it is indeed the No.1 K-pop group.

According to the Gaon chart results announced in the morning of February 9, BIGBANG’s regular album “MADE THE FULL ALBUM” ranked first place with 142,652 sold copies.

In December last year, BIGBANG’s “FXXK IT” took the top spot on Gaon’s monthly digital chart and download chart. By topping January’s monthly chart, BIGBANG has succeeded in sweeping the chart for two months in a row.

BIGBANG debuted eleven years ago, but the group’s singles and albums are still doing well on the charts.

Billboard Announces T.O.P’s Ten Best Songs as He Joins the Military


[스포츠조선=조윤선 기자] US Billboard announced the top ten memorable songs of T.O.P.

On February 9 (KST), Billboard announced that T.O.P will begin his mandatory military service and announced his 10 most memorable songs.

The songs are “D.I.S.C.O” by Uhm Jung Hwa; “Friend” with TAEYANG; “Hallelujah” with TAEYANG and G-DRAGON; his first solo single “TURN IT UP” and solo single “DOOM DADA”; “HIGH HIGH”, “KNOCK OUT”, and “ZUTTUR” as GD&T.O.P; “FANTASTIC BABY” and “LAST DANCE” as BIGBANG; and “Don’t Leave Me Alone” by Pixie Lott, in which he participated as GD&T.O.P.

Billboard praised T.O.P’s single “DOOM DADA” and wrote, “No other T.O.P performance can really compare to his latest solo effort… it is “Doom Dada” where T.O.P revealed his true artistry.”

About “FANTASTIC BABY”, Billboard commented, “…the rapper’s meme-worthy tagline in “Fantastic Baby” deserves a shout out as one of his defining career moments. The 2012 banger was BIGBANG’s first hit to garner international attention and T.O.P was one of the primary reasons.”

Meanwhile, T.O.P started his training course at the Korea Army Training Center this afternoon. He will be serving as a conscripted police officer after finishing the course for his mandatory military service.
