Unforgettable Memories

‘TONIGHT’ which swept away all crowns from various music programs, fans have been concerning whether Big Bang will continue to promote their follow-up song or ending their promotional activities soon.

As counted on Mnet’s MCountdown, KBS 2TV’s Music Bank and the last performance on SBS’s Inkigayo, Big Bang’s 4th mini album title song ‘TONIGHT’ had its continuous victory for the full 3 weeks. But having to win the 3 trophies, it seems that the chances of promoting the other songs in the album are slim.

Even though ‘Cafe’ and ‘What is Right’ had been receiving good response from the fans, according to the usual style of promoting, It is possible that they are rounding up their promotional activities and preparing for their ‘recharge’. Because of this, Big Bang’s agency are carefully choosing whether to continue promoting their subsequent activties.

According to a staff of YG, they said, “Whether they want to stop their activities or continue with a second title song is all up to how the members are feeling about it. Because of the interest they’re receiving from the fans, we’re thinking of ways to repay the fans for it,” and ended with the possibility of continuing their activities.

After 2 years and 3 months of waiting, Big Bang member units and solos were not enough to fufill the fans while they expressed their interest in bringing back ‘BIG BANG’ on stage in the future once again.

Antarctica is Earth's southern most continent, encapsulating the South Pole. It is situated in the Antarctic region of the southern hemisphere, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle, and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. At 14.0 million km² (5.4 million sq mi), it is the fifth-largest continent in area after Asia, Africa, North America, and South America. About 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice that averages at least 1.6 kilometres (1.0 mi) in thickness.

Antarctica, on average, is the coldest, driest, and windiest continent, and has the highest average elevation of all the continents.^[2]Antarctica is considered a desert, with annual precipitation of only 200 mm (8 inches) along the coast and far less inland.^[3] There are no permanent human residents, but anywhere from 1,000 to 5,000 people reside throughout the year at the research stations scattered across the continent. Only cold-adapted plants and animals survive there, including penguins, seals, nematodes,tardigrades, mites, many types of algae and other microorganisms, and tundra vegetation.

Although myths and speculation about a Terra Australis ("Southern Land") date back to antiquity, the first confirmed sighting of the continent is commonly accepted to have occurred in 1820 by the Russian expedition of Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen andMikhail Lazarev. The continent, however, remained largely neglected for the rest of the 19th century because of its hostile environment, lack of resources, and isolation. The Antarctic Treaty was signed in 1959 by 12 countries; to date, 46 countries have signed the treaty. The treaty prohibits military activities and mineral mining, supports scientific research, and protects the continent's ecozone. Ongoing experiments are conducted by more than 4,000 scientists of many nationalities and with various research interests.

Jay Chou (traditional Chinese: 周杰倫; simplified Chinese: 周杰伦; pinyin: Zhōu Jiélún; Wade–Giles: Chou Chieh-lun; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chiu Kia̍t-lûn; born January 18, 1979) is a Taiwanese musician, singer-songwriter, music and film producer, actor and director who has won the World Music Award four times. He is well-known for composing all his own songs and songs for other singers. In 1998 he was discovered in a talent contest where he displayed his piano and song-writing skills. Over the next two years, he was hired to compose for popular Mandarin singers. Although he was trained in classical music, Chou combines Chinese and Western music styles to produce songs that fuse R&B,rock and pop genres, covering issues such as domestic violence, war, and urbanization.

In 2000, Chou released his first album, titled Jay, under the record company Alfa Music. Since then he has released one album per year except in 2009, selling several million copies each. His music has gained recognition throughout Asia, most notably in regions such asTaiwan, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and in overseas Asian communities, winning more than 20 awards each year. He has sold more than 28 million albums worldwide up to 2010. He debuted his acting career in Initial D(2005), for which he won Best Newcomer Actor in both the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Golden Horse Awards, and was nominated for Best Supporting Actor by Hong Kong Film Awards for his role in Curse of the Golden Flower (2006). He produced the theme song for the filmOcean Heaven starring Jet Li. His career now extends into directing and running his own record company JVR Music.

The Niagara Falls are voluminous waterfalls on the Niagara River, straddling the international border between the Canadian provinceof Ontario and the U.S. state of New York. The falls are 17 miles (27 km) north-northwest of Buffalo, New York and 75 miles (121 km) south-southeast of Toronto, Ontario, between the twin cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York.

Niagara Falls is composed of two major sections separated by Goat Island: the Horseshoe Falls, which today is entirely on the Canadian side of the border, and the American Falls on the American side. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the main falls by Luna Island.

Niagara Falls were formed when glaciers receded at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation (the last ice age), and water from the newly formed Great Lakes carved a path through the Niagara Escarpment en route to the Atlantic Ocean. While not exceptionally high, the Niagara Falls are very wide. More than 6 million cubic feet (168,000 m³) of water falls over the crest line every minute in high flow,and almost 4 million cubic feet (110,000 m³) on average. It is the most powerful waterfall in North America.

The Niagara Falls are renowned both for their beauty and as a valuable source of hydroelectric power. Managing the balance between recreational, commercial, and industrial uses has been a challenge for the stewards of the falls since the 19th century

The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in northern China, built originally to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire against intrusions by various nomadic groups. Several walls have been built since the 5th century BC that are referred to collectively as the Great Wall, which has been rebuilt and maintained from the 5th century BC through the 16th century. One of the most famous is the wall built between 220–206 BC by the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang. Little of that wall remains; the majority of the existing wall was built during the Ming Dynasty.

The Great Wall stretches from Shanhaiguan in the east, to Lop Nur in the west, along an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge ofInner Mongolia. The most comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technologies, has concluded that the entire Great Wall, with all of its branches, stretches for 8,851.8 km (5,500.3 mi). This is made up of 6,259.6 km (3,889.5 mi) sections of actual wall, 359.7 km (223.5 mi) of trenches and 2,232.5 km (1,387.2 mi) of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers.

Kota Terlarang (bahasa Inggris: The Forbidden City; bahasa Mandarin: 紫禁城; pinyin: Zǐjìn Chéng yang dapat diterjemahkan dengan "Kota Terlarang Ungu"), sering disebut juga dengan "Istana Terlarang", terletak persis di tengah-tengah kota kuno Beijing, merupakan istana kerajaan selama periode Dinasti Ming dan Dinasti Qing. Dikenal sebagai "Museum Istana" (bahasa Mandarin:故宫博物院; pinyin:Gùgōng Bówùyùan), lokasi ini memiliki luas sekitar 720,000 meter persegi, 800 bangunan dan lebih dari 8.000 ruangan. Kota Terlarang, oleh UNESCO disebut merupakan koleksi terbesar struktur kayu kuno di dunia, dan terdaftar sebagai salah satu Situs Warisan Dunia UNESCO pada 1987 sebagai "Istana Kerajaan Dinasti Ming dan Qing". Lokasi istana kerajaan berada di utara dari lapangan Tiananmen dan dapat diakses dari lapangan tersebut melalui Gerbang Tiananmen. Lokasi tersebut dikelilingi oleh suatu wilayah luas yang disebut Kota Kerajaan.

Walaupun tidak lagi ditempati oleh kalangan bangsawan, Kota Terlarang tetap merupakan simbol dari kekuasaan Tiongkok. Gambarnya sendiri muncul pada lambang negara Republik Rakyat Cina. Museum Istana sekarang ini merupakan salah satu lokasi yang paling menarik wisatawan di dunia.

Kota Terlarang memiliki banyak nama. Di Tiongkok, lokasi tersebut umum dikenal dengan nama Gu Gong (故宫), atau "bekas istana". Nama yang sekarang dikenal secara umum sebagai "Kota Terlarang" merupakan terjemahan dari Zijin Cheng (紫禁城), yang berarti "Kota Terlarang Ungu".
