5 guys 1 sound - Big Bang. K-pop's new idol group consists of the members G-Dragon, Tae Young, Sung Ri, Tae Seong, and T.O.P. Belonging to the YG Entertainment label, they can not only sing in harmony, but also write and arrange music. It's no wonder then that the band members were responsible for the composition of their debut single. Bandleader G-Dragon composed the principal track We belong together, while he and other group member T.O.P. penned the song lyrics. It presents a rhythmic up-tempo tune with rap passages. As for the song This Love, it can be traced back to the same-titled smash hit by American rock group Maroon 5, with G-Dragon responsible for the new version's composition, lyrics and music arrangement.

Big Bang is a Korean hip hop group comprised of five members, as one was dropped in the ninth episode of their documentary episodes. The members of the band are all talented performers; from vocals and rap to dance and songwriting, Big Bang filled its debut album with music created by the members themselves. G.DRAGON and T.O.P wrote the lyrics of their debut single. All 5 members of the band will not take part in each song; each member of the band will choose the songs that best showcase their talents. G.DRAGON and T.O.P., who both excel in rap, will perform "We Belong Together" and the R&B ballad "A Tearful Fool" will be performed by Tae-yang, Dae-sung and Seung-ri. They are considered the new face of YG family.
