BIGBANG claimed their first music show trophy for their latest single "BiiiG" on the September 6 episode of SBS's "Inkigayo." According to Soompi, the group beat out ATEEZ's "BAD" and ALPHA DRIVE ONE's "BORN DIRE" in a competitive three-way race for first place.
BIGBANG pulled in a total of 5,351 points to secure the win. The victory came through music critics' votes, digital streams, and broadcast voting.
The group has been one of the most influential acts in global K-pop history. Their recent output had not dominated the weekly music show circuit the way it once did. This "BiiiG" victory shows their pull with voters remains active, even in a landscape crowded with younger acts like ATEEZ who are building their own legacy.
The September 6 "Inkigayo" episode also featured performances from MONSTA X and Chungha. BIGBANG's win is the headline from the show, it proved a group that debuted nearly two decades ago can still compete and claim first place.
For BIGBANG's Indian fanbase and international followers who have remained engaged through hiatuses and project gaps, this is validation. The group remains competitive with the new generation despite younger acts pushing harder than ever. Whether this sparks a full comeback era or remains a single victory remains to be seen.
