[????=??? ??] BIGBANG (G-DRAGON, T.O.P, TAEYANG, DAESUNG, and SEUNGRI) expressed how they feel after hearing that they took the No.1 spot on an official music chart for three months in a row.

At an interview with Starnews before the shoot for SBS’s Inkigayo in the afternoon of August 6, BIGBANG told how they felt about topping Gaon’s monthly digital chart for three consecutive months.

BIGBANG ranked first on Gaon’s monthly digital chart in May with “LOSER” of their “M” album, in June with “BANG BANG BANG” of their “A” album, and in July with “IF YOU” of their “D” album.

Hearing the news, BIGBANG said, “This is something that is totally unexpected.” They went on to say, “The first and second singles came out as almost we expected, but we had a slight change of plans for the third single.”

The members added, “We kicked off to a good start, and that’s was probably the main reason why our fans anticipated our next singles.” They also said, “All the singles had different colors and that’s mostly why they were all able to top the charts. We thank all those who listened to our music.”

BIGBANG also commented, “We focused on making our own music, the best of our music.” The members raised expectations for the next album by saying “Our “MADE” album, which will come out in September, will also be great.”

Meanwhile, BIGBANG released their “E” album – the fourth singles album of their MADE series- at 12 AM (KST) of August 5. The tracks of the album, “LET’S NOT FALL IN LOVE” and GD& T.O.P’s “ZUTTER” are sweeping the charts yet again.
