Meanwhile, Big Bang's G-Dragon has explained the meaning behind their new hit single "Loser," which he has co-written with band member T.O.P and producer Teddy. K Pop Starz has quoted him as saying,  "What we wanted to say was that, not only Big Bang, but also all the famous people who stand under the spotlight in front of the public are just human beings."

Released on May 1, "Loser" and "Bae Bae" are the two songs from Big Bang's new album "Made." It was announced in Feb. this year that the top South Korean idol band will be returning as a group with a new album, "Made," after more than 1000 days since the release of their last album.
