"Lies" was the breakthrough hit that redefined BIGBANG’s sound and changed the landscape of K-pop.

With its addictive hook, electro-pop beat, and emotionally raw lyrics, "Lies" topped charts for weeks and became a generational anthem.
📖 What It's About
The song portrays the painful aftermath of a breakup. The narrator confesses that saying goodbye was a lie—that he’s still deeply in love and regrets letting go. The repeated refrain “I’m so sorry but I love you” captures the emotional contradiction of hurting someone while still loving them.
💬 Why I Love It
"Lies" feels timeless. G-Dragon’s songwriting blends vulnerability and coolness in a way that’s rare in early K-pop. The electronic beat was ahead of its time, and each member’s voice and rap adds a different layer of emotion. It’s the kind of song that hits you immediately—and stays with you.
The song earned BIGBANG their first major Daesang (grand prize) and helped define the late 2000s K-pop sound. Many still consider it one of the most iconic K-pop tracks of all time.
