“Ringa Linga,” a solo track released by Taeyang in November 2013, features powerful dance choreography and catchy hooks that differed from his previous solo songs.

Previous music videos for his solo tracks, such as “I Need a Girl” and “Wedding Dress,” focused mostly on Taeyang’s mellow voice and had edgy choreography that showcased his dance skills.

In contrast, the music video for “Ringa Linga” highlighted Taeyang and backup dancers’ powerful moves, filmed in black and white.
With the new milestone, Big Bang has become the first K-pop group with a record 15 music videos topping 100 million views on YouTube. Their record-setting music videos include “Fantastic Baby,” “Blue” and “Bae Bae.”

All the members of the veteran boy group, except Seungri, are currently serving their mandatory military duty.
