On social media, G-Dragon, a prominent figure in the K-Pop scene, recently stirred up discussions with a post on his Instagram account.
In this post, he featured BIGBANG’s track “Still Life”as the background music, leading fans to speculate about its significance.
Celebrating a Milestone
The timing of G-Dragon’s post coincided with the second anniversary of “Still Life’s”release, adding a layer of potential celebration or commemoration to the message.
However, what truly caught the attention of netizens was the visual element accompanying the post-a piano with three white keys and two black keys.
This seemingly innocuous image sparked a flurry of interpretations regarding BIGBANG’s current lineup.
Implications of Tagging
Adding fuel to the speculation, G-Dragon only tagged the accounts of fellow BIGBANG members Taeyang and Daesung, omitting any reference to former member Seungri or the group’s original five-member lineup.

Many fans and observers interpreted the piano keys as a metaphorical representation of BIGBANG now functioning as a trio, with only three active members remaining in the group.
Netizens’ Reactions
The online community buzzed with various reactions to this interpretation:”It’s true actually…”
- “It’s not the album artwork but he added the image from somewhere?”
- “Why some people are still insisting on the group having four members?”
- “But having the three of them is good enough… They can do everything well”
- “The metaphor using piano keys is unbelievable…”
- “The three are actually the most talented members”
- “BIGBANG with three members is the best”
In recent news, BIGBANG member G-Dragon was spotted attending CES 2024 in Las Vegas, accompanied by the CEO of Galaxy Corporation, the agency he is currently signed with.
G-Dragon’s attendance at the event raised speculation about his solo comeback in 2024 after being cleared of drug allegations in December 2023.
