BigBang was the first idol group formed by YG Entertainment, whose previous roster included hip hop groups Jinusean and 1TYM. The quintet held their official debut on August 19, 2006 at the Gymnastics Arena in Seoul Olympic Park during the YG Family 10th Year Concert, which was broadcast the following month.[4] Their first single "Big Bang", released shortly thereafter, contained the songs "We Belong Together", featuring label mate Park Bom; "A Fool's Only Tears" (Korean: 눈물뿐인 바보; Revised Romanization: Nunmulppunin Babo); and "This Love", an adaptation of the American rock band Maroon 5 song, rewritten and performed by G-Dragon.[5][6]

The first single released for the album went on to sell nearly 40,000 copies.[7] The second single, "Big Bang Is V.I.P", was released in September, eventually topping 32,000 copies sold.[8] Their last single, "Big Bang 03", followed, with final sales nearing 40,000 copies.[7] The group held their first concert, The Real, that December, followed by their debut album, BigBang Vol. 1 – Since 2007; it sold over 48,000 copies by the end of February 2007[7] and eventually over 110,000 copies total.[3]
