[OSEN=??? ??] Group BIGBANG’s only rival is BIGBANG themselves. The team took the No.1 on monthly charts for three months in a row since May this year, with “MADE” project. The new songs released this month are also sweeping music charts.

BIGBANG is a group who has strong fandom and popularity. Every song the team releases takes the No.1 on charts and draws a keen attention from foreign fans, too. Notably, BIGBANG is thought to be a musician, rather than just an idol group. The members write their own songs, so BIGBANG always maintains their unique color and always entertains fans with fresh and new trials every time they release a new song.

BIGBANG began “MADE” project in May and has released two songs every month until this August. “LOSER” and “BAE BAE” released in May, “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” released in June, “IF YOU” and “SOBER” released in July, and “LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVE” and “ZUTTER” released this month have all dominated all the top rankings on charts. As such, BIGBANG is boasting a formidable power for four consecutive months. To the extent that people even say “The only rival of BIGBANG is BIGBANG”, the music scene for this summer season which had been expected to be swept by girl groups is actually dominated by BIGBANG.

Most of all, it is notable that BIGBANG has stayed in the No.1 on daily, weekly, and monthly charts for three months in a row. In the current music scene that is ever-changing at a very fast speed, it is difficult for a singer to maintain a long run even though he tops the chart upon his comeback. There has been no such case like BIGBANG who is achieving a great success for every song they release despite the rush of new songs released almost every day. That proves how big power BIGBANG’s music has.

BIGBANG is creating sensation not only in Korea, but also in foreign countries. As BIGBANG has already established themselves as a leading K-Pop star who is standing under a big spotlight of major foreign media outlets, every album the team releases draws a keen attention from American Billboard, FUSE TV, and other major media outlets. It is only natural for BIGBANG to be ranked on foreign countries’ iTunes chart and Billboard world digital song chart. That indicates that foreign music fans also have a deep trust in BIGBANG’s music.

BIGBANG has now completed “MADE” project by releasing new single “E” with “LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVE” and “ZUTTER” on August 5. While the team has been staying in the No.1 on charts for four consecutive months, member G-DRAGON and TAEYANG are also performing in the music festival of MBC TV’s “The Infinite Challenge”. So, it is expected that August will also be “the month of BIGBANG”.

[?????=??? ??] BIGBANG seems to be eating up the whole music scene for this August.

BIGBANG released last single “E” of “MADE” series on August 5, to unveil “LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVE” and “ZUTTER”. The two songs’ power is larger than expected. The two songs swept all major music charts upon their release, and such record is being maintained for three days.

Plus, as BIGBANG has said that they will do a lot of TV performances with “E” album, the popularity of the new songs is expected to continue for a longer period of time. BIGBANG will unveil the first new song for this month in SBS “INKIGAYO” on the 9. Since BIGBANG always shows well-organized performances, the performance to be unveiled is expected to create another sensation.

BIGBANG will be the one to succeed their own popularity drawn these days. BIGBANG’s G-DRAGON and TAEYANG are performing in the music festival of MBC’s “The Infinite Challenge”, which is drawing a keen attention. Because the songs of the music festival are released on music-streaming websites, it is expected that BIGBANG will be the one to succeed the team’s own popularity.

Of course other teams of “The Infinite Challenge”’s music festival are the ones who are always ranked on high places on charts, but as music fans’ expectations for the harmony to be created by GD and TAEYANG together with Kwanghee have already grown, the focus of the attention is put on the GD, TAEYANG, and Kwanghee team.

A music industry insider said, “BIGBANG could not do that many TV performances because of their world tour in June and July, but in this August, they are performing in a very popular TV show and doing TV performances for the new songs, their power will be even bigger. Other singers have even adjusted the schedule of their comeback, to avoid confrontation with BIGBANG and the music festival of “The Infinite Challenge”.

BIGBANG has been dominating music charts, releasing new songs at the beginning of every month since May. Even though they have not given that many TV performances, BIGBANG drew big popularity from not only Korean but also overseas fans.

Such big popularity is shown by “ZUTTER” which took the No.1 in the iTunes single chart of 10 countries: Brunei, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Macao, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Mongolia, and “LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVE” which is in the second place on the same chart of five countries: Macao, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand, on the third day of their release.

Meanwhile, BIGBANG who is carrying out world tour along with new release, will hold concert in Shenzhen in July, and then continue with the tour to have 70 concerts in 15 countries including the United States and Canada.
