BigBang's debut studio album was released in December 2006.^[1] It spawned several singles, including "La La La" and "A Fool's Only Tears". The group achieved commercial success with "Lies", the lead single of their first extended play, Always (2007), which topped the Melon Chart for six consecutive weeks. Their second and third extended plays followed their predecessor's success; Hot Issue (2007) yielded "Last Farewell" while Stand Up (2008) spawned "Haru Haru", which topped the Melon Chart for eight and seven consecutive weeks, respectively.^[2][3] Their second studio album, Remember (2008), was also a commercial success and yielded two hit singles in South Korea, "Sunset Glow" and "Strong Baby", with the latter being performed solely by member Seungri.^[4]

The group ventured into the Japanese market with two extended plays, For the World (2008) and With U (2008),^[5] as well as two studio albums, Number 1 (2009) and Big Bang (2009).^[6][7] The latter was promoted with two singles: "My Heaven", which debuted at number three on the Oricon Chart,^[8] and "Gara Gara Go!", which was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ).^[9][10]

They resumed their activities in South Korea in early 2009, with the release of the song "Lollipop" with their labelmate 2NE1, which was used to promote the LG Cyon's Lollipop phone.^[11] The song topped various online charts in South Korea and became an instant viral hit.^[12] In February 2011, BigBang returned to the Korean music scene after two years of hiatus with the release of their fourth Korean extended play, Tonight, which became their first number-one album on the Gaon Album Chart, which was established one year prior.^[13] The EP spawned a chart-topping single of the same name and was reissued as a repackaged album under the title Big Bang Special Edition, which spawned "Love Song", their second number-one hit. Later in the same year, BigBang released their second Japanese studio album, Big Bang 2 (2011), which topped the Oricon Albums Charts and was certified gold by the RIAJ. Two singles from the album, "Koe o Kikasete" and "Tell Me Goodbye", also received the same certification.

In 2012, BigBang released their fifth Korean extended play, Alive, which made the group the first ever Korean act to chart on the Billboard 200 with an album purely in the Korean language, debuting at number 150.^[14] The EP's lead single, "Blue", quickly topped all major music charts in South Korea while the next two singles, "Bad Boy" and "Fantastic Baby", charted at number two and three on the Gaon Digital Chart, respectively.^[15] All three singles from Alive charted separately at number three on the Billboard World Song Sales chart. The EP was later reissued under the title Still Alive (2012), which spawned the single "Monster", their fourth number-one hit on the Gaon Digital Chart.

After a three-year hiatus, BigBang made their comeback in mid-2015 by releasing four single albums from their first studio album in eight years, Made (2016).^[16] All songs from the album charted within the top three positions on the Gaon Digital Chart and Billboard World Digital Songs chart (with the exception of "Girlfriend"). BigBang's final release as a five-member group, "Flower Road", topped both the Gaon Digital Chart and the Billboard World Digital Songs chart in March 2018. It was eventually certified platinum by the Korea Music Content Association. In 2022, BigBang released the single "Still Life" as a four-member group, which topped the charts in South Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.
