[NEWS] BIGBANG is always different… World tour that has drawn 1.5 million fans ended in great success

BIGBANG has proven their excellence as an unrivalled artist, drawing total 1.5 million fans to their 10-month-long world tour.

Group BIGBANG’s world tour “MADE” marked its grand finale in a concert held from March 4 to 6 at Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Bangi-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul. Total 39,000 fans visited the three concerts.

In the final concert on March 6, BIGBANG presented performances of total 19 songs including encores for fans. The team performed a variety of songs including the songs released last year, all-time hit “HARU HARU”, each member’s solo tracks, as well as songs of unit teams of the members.

The concert began with a powerful performance of “BANG BANG BANG” and built up the heat with “HARU HARU” and “LOSER”. At the very end of the concert, BIGBANG expressed their special love for fans by saying, “Korean fans sing the best” and “You are the most beautiful”. Fans responded by singing along “BAD BOY” and IF YOU” all together.

Then, SEUNGRI’s solo performance of “STRONG BABY”, DAESUNG’s “WINGS”, T.O.P’s “DOOM DADA”, TAEYANG’s “EYES, NOSE, LIPS”, and G-DRAGON’s “CROOKED” demonstrated artistic achievements that each member has made so far.

Then, the performance of “BAE BAE” with witty lyrics was finished and fans presented an event for BIGBANG, holding up paper that reads “BIGBANG is my everything”. SEUNGRI responded by saying, “Fans are BIGBANG’s everything”. Plus, the news about BIGBANG’s 10th anniversary concert to be held in this summer was like a big gift for fans.

When BIGBANG went down from the stage after performing “FANTASTIC BABY”, fans requested encore, singing “HEAVEN”. BIGBANG’s encore performance of “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” seemed to be the last song of the concert, but fans kept shouting “LIE”.
