BIGBANG still holding on to 4th in the digital singles ranking despite being a barely promoted ballad is something I'll always be proud of. Other songs are catchier and are more viral especially on social media like TikTok, yet Still Life's greatest asset is the fact that the Korean public loves its message. Only shows how BIGBANG can come back once in a while compared to others, but when they do, their music is celebrated.
