“big bang’s only rival is bigbang”… no.1 on charts for 3 months in a row
Quote:
group big bang’s only rival is big bang 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.
Big bang 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, big bang is thought to be a musician, rather than just an idol group. The members write their own songs, so big bang always maintains their unique color and always entertains fans with fresh and new trials every time they release a new song.
big bang 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, big bang is boasting a formidable power for four consecutive months. To the extent that people even say “the only rival of big bang is big bang”, the music scene for this summer season which had been expected to be swept by girl groups is actually partially dominated by big bang.
most of all, it is notable that big bang 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 big bang 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 big bang’s music has.
big bang is creating sensation not only in korea, but also in foreign countries. As big bang 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 big bang 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 big bang’s music.
Big bang 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 big bang”.

OMG at the non event and totally filler BB tracks dominating the charts. When will SNSD and their summer masterpiece, or Wonder Girls and there album of the Century.
I can't wait for this entire MADE era to end and Big Bang all go to military! Only the M and A singles were worth it. Everything else was filler!
Wonder Girls' Reboot is one of the best things to happen this year. I hope they do a follow-up single before doing the solo activities again. At this point, I wish to have yearly WG comebacks. They have grown into real artists, and the music has been amazing too.
T-ara's only way to gain back the public's affection is through music. They just need to release those infectious tunes again - tunes that the public could not resist. They're one of best girl groups K-Pop has ever had, and it is such a pop injustice that they are doing badly now because of Hwayoung-gate.
No other girl group can pull of the likes of Wae Ireoni, YAYAYA, Roly Poly, Lovey Dovey, Day By Day and more. If any other girl group did those songs, a lot of personality and appeal would not have been present.
