The k-pop powerhouse BIGBANG is topping both domestic and international charts with their latest single, "Still Life." At 8:30 KST on April 17, "Still Lifeachieved its 82nd Perfect All-Kill

With "Still Life," BIGBANG extends their record as the k-pop group with most songs with Perfect All-Kills (6 songs), only coming second to the soloist IU. BIGBANG achieved their first PAK in 2012 with "Blue."

In the first eleven days, the song had also surpassed +31,4 million streams and 2 million unique listeners on MelOn, being the fastest song to reach this milestone in 2022.

Upon release, "Still Life" also achieved the highest daily streams in Spotify South Korea's chart history (129,437 streams).




With this new release, BIGBANG also extended their records as the k-pop group with the most No.1 songs on Gaon Digital Chart history (11) and most cumulative weeks on MelOn Top 10 (223 weeks).

Outside of South Korea, "Still Life" premiered at #1 on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart and at #3 on the Billboard Global 200 (excl. the US) with just three days of tracking.

The song was also certified Golden Diamond on QQ Music and became the fastest-selling digital single in China this decade. "Still Life" is also the first-ever single to sell 1 million copies after the "No More Mass Buying Rule" in China. It achieved this milestone in 30 minutes. 

Congratulations to BIGBANG for these great achievements!

Meanwhile, YG Entertainment had to do some damage control after member T.O.P's emotional letter to fans on Instagram, as well as the new song's serious tone, led many investors to believe that the legendary group was disbanding. This speculation caused the agency's stocks to plummet. On April 8, YG issued a lengthy statement in an attempt to alleviate these fears, assuring investors that this was not the end of the group but a new beginning.

Kings doing all of that without single promotion, they didn't even mention the song on their IG for 2 weeks now, and they still achieved all of that. Organic success as usual.

The Kings of K-Pop. You have to remember that Big Bang doesn't make a comeback 2-3x a year like most groups do and they've had a couple of hiatuses, the lengths of which would make the public forget about most groups. Some of their songs before the PAK age like Lies, Last Farewell, and Haru Haru would extend their list of PAK songs also.
