Revolutionary South Korean boy band that reshaped K-pop globally through genre experimentation and trendsetting artistry.Formed by YG Entertainment in 2006, Big Bang debuted with members G-Dragon, T.O.P, Taeyang, Daesung, and Seungri. They pioneered K-pop's global expansion with hits like 'Lies' and 'Fantastic Baby,' becoming the first Korean act to top Billboard's World Albums chart. The group faced major upheaval after Seungri's 2019 retirement amid criminal investigations. Following military enlistments, the remaining quartet resumed activities in 2022.

• G-Dragon composed 90% of the group's discography, breaking industry norms where idols rarely wrote their own music.
• Seungri permanently left in 2019 after being implicated in the Burning Sun scandal involving prostitution mediation and embezzlement, receiving an 18-month prison sentence.
• Their 2015 MADE album series made history as the first K-pop album to sell over a million copies in China.
• T.O.P's 2016 overdose incident and subsequent police investigation caused temporary hiatus during peak popularity.
