Hello, this is YG Online Friends^^
Though the time seemed to be slowly passing, a year has already gone by and it already seems like a promising 2013! I'm sure you can't hide the anticipation of what kinds of songs and performances you're waiting for in 2013. I know I'm excited for the Big Bang activities in 2013! 2012 was a year that we had time to organize many Big Bang activities! We couldn't participate in every opportunity so we had to choose the ones that would leave the most memorable impression.

We couldn't participate in every opportunity so we had to choose the ones that would leave the most memorable impression.
In order to see what kind of image Big Bang showed us in 2012, let's take a look at the memories we had with Big Bang^^.
Healing Camp---Aren't they happy
February 20th: Healing Camp Episode airs! This was the first hint at Big Bang's activities! In the midst of big and small matters, this was the first time that they were able to talk about them. After G-Dragon and Daesung's talks, the rest of the Big Bang members gathered to share a meal and show their affection towards each other and left a lasting memory for fans. Perhaps that's the purpose of the show.^^
5th mini album ALIVE release
February 29th: The long awaited 5th mini album ALIVE finally released. Each song had an all kill as soon as it hit the charts! A star featurette on the Naver music apps, early preview, Big Bang thoughts on their comeback as daily teasers to the comeback date are the happy memories from this~^^
2012 BIGBANG Concert BIG SHOW
March 2-4: 2012 Bigshow was the first Live performance of the songs from the 5th mini album! From those three days in Seoul the ALIVE TOUR was born and January 15- 27, the FINAL concerts will return us to Seoul again~^^
Sunday is good—Running Man
March 4, 11: A two-part episode of Running Man!
From the awesome arrival via helicopter to the end with “the strength of five rings joined we shall dominate space!' cry. It was embarrassing but in order to give us laughter that now famous phrase was created on Running Man. :D

Inkigayo First Broadcast
March 11: Inkigayo! The 5th mini album songs were introduced on a music program for the first time!
In order to match the lyrics “Falling deeply my image is beautiful” from the ALIVE intro, Big Bang fell from the sky on wires! In a background of water, they performed BLUE, and the performances for Bad Boy and Fantastic Baby were so on point that the audience shouted, “of course, it's Big Bang!”

Jung Jae Hyung and Lee Hyori's You&I

Recapping all the activities that Big Bang was involved in during 2012, seeing all the images they gave us as we anticipate their comeback in 2013, it would be so nice if Big Bang and the VIPs could be one^^ May it be a bountiful 2013!
