- BIGBANG
  Big Bang (Korean: 빅뱅) is a South Korean boy band formed by YG Entertainment. With members G-Dragon, T.O.P, Taeyang, Daesung, and Seungri, they are often cited as one of the most influential acts to shape the K-pop industry, helping spread the Korean Wave internationally and dubbed the "Kings of K-pop" by the media.Their experimental blend of hip hop, EDM, and rock elements in their music, personal involvement in producing their own records,[9] and stage performances have been admired by music critics and served as influence to several K-pop and international artists.Despite their debut album, Bigbang Vol.1 (2006), receiving lukewarm receptions, success followed with a string of notable hits credited to the quintet, including "Lies" (Korean: 거짓말; Revised Romanization: Geojitmal), which topped major Korean music charts for a record-breaking six consecutive weeks, and won Song of the Year at the 9th Mnet Korean Music Festival, "Last Farewell" (Korean: 마지막 인사; Revised Romanization: Majimak Insa), "Day by Day" (Korean: 하루하루, RevisedRomanization: Haru Haru) and "Sunset Glow" (Korean: 붉은노을; Revised Romanization: Byulkeun Noeul).

The number one EP Tonight (2011) lead to their emergence as the inaugural Best Worldwide Act winner at the 2011 MTV Europe Music Awards. The Korean EP Alive (2012) earned their second Artist of the Year Award at the 2012 Mnet Asian Music Awards, and also became the first Korean album to chart on the Billboard 200, with the group embarking on their first world tour that concluded in early 2013.Their widely acclaimed third album Made (2016) was preceded by several chart-topping singles, winning the group their third Artist of the Year award at the 2015 Mnet Asian Music Awards and their first at the 2015 Melon Music Awards. The supporting world tour gathered 1.5 million people in attendance, making it the most attended concert tour headlined by a Korean act in history.Big Bang has a record eighteen number one songs that have remained atop South Korean's biggest online music service Melon for 51 weeks, more than any other act.

  Two-time world champion Lee Dae-hoon secured at least a bronze medal at the ongoing taekwondo world championships on Monday.Lee, competing in the men's under-68kg, was one of two South Koreans to reach the seminfinals at the World Taekwondo Federation World Taekwondo Championships at Taekwondowon's T1 Arena in Muju, 240 kilometers south of Seoul.Kim Jan-di also made the final four in the women's under-67kg.There is no bronze medal contest at these championships, where the two losers of the semifinals will each earn a bronze.Host South Korea is currently leading the competition with two gold medals.Lee, the top seed here and also No. 1 in the WTF rankings, won the world titles in the under-63kg category in 2011 and 2013, and will try to add a third in a new weight class this week. The semifinals and the final will take place Tuesday.Lee opened his day by beating Lakchai Hauihongthong of Thailand 34-10 in the round of 64. Lee then took down Yerassyl Kaiyrbek of Kazakhstan 39-27, and beat Edival Pontes of Brazil 25-7 to reach the quarterfinals.Iran's Abolfazi Yaghoubijouybari gave Lee all he could handle in the quarterfinals. The Iranian actually led 11-10 after the second of three two-minute rounds. But Yaghoubijouybari looked gassed in the final frame, as Lee picked up five unanswered points for the come-from-behind win.In Tuesday's semifinals, Lee will face Vlaimir Dalakliev of Bulgaria.In the women's competition, Kim beat Victoria Heredia of Mexico 17-6 in the round of 32, and then defeated Polina Khan of Russia 14-8 in the next round.The South Korean then blanked Farida Azizova of Azerbaijan 7-0 to advance to the semifinals, where she will take on Nur Tatar of Turkey on Tuesday.Tatar is the 2015 world silver medalist who also won an Olympic bronze in 2016 and silver in 2012.This is Kim's second world championships.

- ACTRESS AND TAEKWONDO ATHLETE TAEMI AIMS FOR FIR
  Korean ceremonial first pitches: Where the real war of skill takes place on a baseball mound.Taemi (also known as K Kim and Tammy which just makes google searching much too difficult) must have seenrhythmic gymnast Shin Soo Ji’s first pitchand decided to challenge her for the What-Kind-of-Fuckery-is-This Title by fighting her way onto the mound for a Doosan Bears game (pun entirely intended). Once there, Taemi stared down the catcher, arched her back and then unleashed a Street Fighter cheat code on the baseball world:I’m not even sure which one is more impressive, the girl who bent her entire torso around her leg like a loose windmill, or the girl who launched herself into an in-the-air somersault to deliver a pitch near home base without throwing up everywhere.All that I know is that both Shin Soo Ji and Taemi have done the impossible and made baseball actually entertaining to watch.I am eagerly awaiting the next athlete to try and up the ante in ceremonial first pitches. It will probably be done by somehow incorporating pole dancing and twerking in the routine, while actual baseball players slowly die inside knowing that their life long ambitions have now been reduced to being a much too lengthy epilogue to the new main event.

- (LEAD) S. Korean Lee Dae-hoon wins gold at taekw
  MUJU, South Korea, June 27 (Yonhap) - South Korean Lee Dae-hoon captured gold at the ongoing taekwondo world championships at home on Tuesday.Lee easily defeated Huang Yu-Jen of Chinese Taipei 26-8 to claim the men's under-68kg title at the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) World Taekwondo Championships at Taekwondowon's T1 Arena in Muju, some 240 kilometers south of Seoul.Lee now has three gold medals at the world championships. He previously won world titles in 2011 and 2013 in the under-63kg category.This wasn't exactly the matchup that fans clamored for. Ahmad Abughaush of Jordan, who upset Lee in the quarterfinals of last year's Rio de Janeiro Olympics en route to taking the gold, was on the opposite side of the bracket from Lee. The two were on a collision course to meet in the final here, but moments after Lee won his semifinals match over Vladimir Dalakliev of Bulgaria, Abughaush fell to Huang in the semis, 9-4.In the final, Lee led 9-0 after the first of three two-minute rounds, with an array of kicks and punches. Huang, a 20-year-old ranked 42nd in the world, was badly overmatched against the top-ranked South Korean.The score was 17-4 after two rounds, and Lee put up nine more points on the board in the final frame to close out Huang."I am so happy to win the title at such a great venue," Lee said. "And I think I was able to get the gold thanks to the support of so many Korean fans here." As for the tantalizing final that never materialized, Lee said he had mixed feelings about it."I was a bit disappointed it didn't happen," Lee said. "But at the same time, I would have been nervous facing Abughaush, and it would put some pressure on me. So I was also relieved that he didn't make it to the final." This is also South Korea's third gold and fourth medal overall at this competition. South Korea won two gold medals on Sunday, and earlier Tuesday, Kim Jan-di got the bronze in the women's under-67kg.jeeho@yna.co.krドラゴンクエスト10 RMT Source: Internet

  The Korean Tigers Taekwondo Demonstration Team (K Tigers, k타이거즈) is one of the world's leading taekwondo demo teams. The team was established by Hak Sun An in 1990 in Seoul, South Korea. Their main practice studio is still located in Seoul. The team includes a men's team, a women's team, and the "Little Tigers" children's team. In total, there are over 60 members of the team. When originally founded, the team's demonstrations tended to focus on just taekwondo and acrobatic tricking. Over time, the team has incorporated more dance and music into their routines as well. In recent years, the musical selection has tended towards K-Pop style music.TrainingThe primary avenue for joining the K-Tigers is via audition, with auditions open to a wide range of ages and belt levels. In other words, you do not need to be a black belt to join the K-Tigers; auditions are open to both children and adults.

- 漫画の形式
  漫画は、現時性と線上性とが複合した一連の絵である。現時性とは「その全てを一望して把握できること」、線上性とは「流れの中で部分を辿り、把握していくこと」である。法隆寺の落書きのような卑俗な笑いから、フランス革命前夜のビラのような体制への嘲笑であったり、また時に、ゴヤのような人間存在を揺るがす鋭いブラックユーモアであったりする。その歴史は長く、時代・地域・社会層によりさまざまな形で存在してきた。形式は極めて多様であり、厳格な定義は殆ど意味をなさない。漫画は、簡略化と事象の抽象化が特徴とされる。現代漫画は、映画などの影響を受けて20世紀に世界的に発展した、ストーリーのある「コマ割り漫画」の comics （コミック）と、「一コマ漫画」の cartoon （カートゥーン）に分類できる。定義[編集]視覚情報を絵として提示する（文章による説明ではない）。絵は話の展開を動的に描写し、情報の本質部分を占める（挿絵とは異なる）。聴覚情報は人物のセリフは文字として、音が擬音として表現される。ただし、音楽は擬音ではなく絵やコマの行間のようなもので表現される場合が多い。コマやフキダシなど独特の形式に沿っている。漫画では情景や人物の動作などは情報伝達の際に、その絵を提示する事で表現されることがある。視覚芸術の一分野に位置付けられるが、1つの画面で完結しない「時間の継起性」において、時間の一瞬を切り取った（近代以降の）絵画とは区別され、1つの画面（フレーム）がコマを指すのか紙面を指すのか不確定なところに、フレームが1つしかない映画との区別がなされる。本記事においては漫画と表記されているが、「マンガ」や「まんが」と表記される場合、これらの表記は意図的に用いられている場合もある。個々の評論家や研究者によって定義は異なる。https://www.iimy.co.jp/rmt/c-218.html

- Taekwondo Is Not Karate
  Taekwondo is a Korean martial art system with its own name, own ranking structure, chosen techniques, and its own style. Taekwondo came from various influences of martial arts with the most heavy influence being from Japanese Karate. In this way Taekwondo is not Karate, yet Taekwondo is Karate. But one point that needs to be made: It is time to stop advertising Taekwondo schools with the word Karate and stop trying to make it synonymous with Karate. Some examples of this issue is how people now talk, “Oh my son is at Karate he will be done at 3.” But in reality you drive by and the gym is a Taekwondo gym with Korean flags everywhere. How often do Karate gyms that actually teach Japanese or Okinawan Karate claim to teach Taekwondo? Not many if any at all. So why do so many Taekwondo organizations advertise with Karate and use Japanese terms for everything like, “Sensei” and “gi.” This is annoying. These are signs of mcdojangism and a fake Taekwondo style that has absolutely no historical significance to Korea or proper Taekwondo. The year is 2014 and it is time to move on and stop using the term Karate for Taekwondo gyms! In the late 80’s and early 90’s Taekwondo at that point became the world’s most popular martial art and still maintains an extremely high degree of popularity worldwide. There are Taekwondo gyms with Korean flags in every town. People know the difference between Karate and Taekwondo now. The Taekwondo masters have had over 2 decades to educate the ignorant public about Taekwondo as its own style and there is no excuse to keep using the term Karate. Not only does using the term Karate piss off actual Karate masters and Karate school owners and takes away from their Japanese and Okinawan arts, it also disgraces Taekwondo by portraying the idea that one must hide the term Taekwondo, or that one is actually training in Taekwondo in order to look better to the public. It is as if Taekwondo gyms are admitting Karate is superior to Taekwondo and they wish they were Karate. It is offensive to the martial artist who loves Taekwondo and should also offend Korean masters who worked hard to get Taekwondo spread worldwide. Did they do this in order to pretend they were a Japanese style? No way! Korean nationalism does not allow for this! Yes Taekwondo could be said to be a kind of Karate and was known as Korean Karate for a very long time. One of its predecessor styles called Tang Soo Do which literally was Korean Karate with the exact same forms and movements as Karate does exist, but Taekwondo is far beyond just being a Karate style and has totally developed into its own unique style with its own theories and applications. It is time to just call it Taekwondo. Yes Taekwondo is Karate, yet Taekwondo is not Karate. Taekwondo is Taekwondo and has progressed beyond Karate even if they use a belt system and uniforms much like Karate fighters. Mcdojangs have got to stop using the word Karate on all of their advertising. Both the ATA and Tiger Rock are notorious for committing this crime, yet they are not even real taekwondo anyway so it is not crazy to understand such fake systems would use incorrect terms, but I have seen actual Kukkiwon gyms and ITF gyms still using the word Karate. Now if this was from decades earlier and it is too expensive to change a sign I understand, but not in current advertising please!

- Our 10 Top Taekwondo Sparring Tips Will Help You
  1. Start Sparring Early In Your Taekwondo JourneyStart taekwondo sparring classes as soon as your instructor says you're ready.It might seem daunting......but as a white or yellow belt - no-one expects anything of you!And in a good martial arts school the instructor will not let anyone bully or over-power you.A good taekwondo instructor will put you against someone who will take care of you- very possibly a taekwondo black belt.A good teacher will then increase the pressure slowly as you show you can handle it.If you start tkd sparring classes as a green belt and you've never done it before you can look a bit daft!Especially if you come up against lower grades who spar regularly!2. Understand That Fear Is Normal - And Don't Let It Stand In Your WayDo top taekwondo competitors feel scared before a bout?......of course they do!Everyone feels fear in taekwondo sparring. It's very intimidating to go into a ring and face someone intent on kicking and punching you.The answer......is to decide that you will not let your fear beat you. Force yourself to get into the ring and do your best. In reality it never seems to be as bad as you think it's going to be.And when you conquer your fear......you feel fantastic!3. Footwork Footwork FootworkIf you remember only one of our taekwondo sparring tips remember what Mohammed Ali said'float like a butterfly sting like a bee'In taekwondo sparring (like in boxing) footwork really is the key.It's hard to believe... but in taekwondo sparring what happens between your kicks is actually more important than kicks themselves.Learn to slide forwards and backwards keeping your weight on both feet and your body over your legs.Learn to switch quickly on the spot.Learn to step forwards and backwards quickly and accurately.And learn to move sideways in a balanced way.So another of our great taekwondo sparring tips is... take your time, listen hard when your instructor teaches you footwork. Practise it. And pay attention to every tiny detail.It will pay off!4. Start To Understand Your Kicking DistanceWhen beginners start tkd sparring they often kick in front of the opponent- their kicks don't reach the target.One of our top taekwondo sparring tips is that you need to start to understand your kicking distance.Start to learn where you can reach with a turning kick- and don't kick until you are at the right distance to make the point score.Too close or too far out and you miss and waste effort.You have to use your footwork to get the distance just right.You also need to look at your opponent. Are they taller or shorter than you? If they're shorter keep them out and take advantage of your long legs.And if they're taller than you - you need to rely on your speed and footwork. Move inside their kicking range. Score. And get out again.5.Think About Ways To Relax Your BodyTaekwondo sparring is frantic and busy. Your brain has to cope with multiple signals and stresses and it's easy to get overwhelmed and panic.This is usually when the mistakes happen and you lose the bout.So one of our top taekwondo sparring tips is something you can do outside the dojang......take some time to think about how you can best calm your mind.Maybe taking a deep but short breath in then a long breath out while you shake your shoulders will work for you. Or perhaps you can smile inside and shake your legs.Practise this outside the ring.And then next time you are sparring and you feel the pressure mount......skip away from your opponent and watch them carefully while you calm yourself down. Then go re-engage in the bout with a clear head. Source:http://www.taekwondo-information.org

- Korean Martial Art of Taekwondo
  TaekwondoThe origin of Taekwondo traces back to the three kingdoms of Koguryo (37 BC-668 AD), Paekche (18 BC-600 AD), and Silla (57 BC-936 AD). Mural paintings on the royal tombs of the Koguryo dynasty, the stone sculptures of pagadas of temples of the Silla period, and documents written in the Paekche dynasty showed fighting stances, skills, and formalized movements similar to today’s Taekwondo styles and forms.All three kingdoms indulged in growing national strength with trained warriors. Therefore, the Korean history tells that there were military personalities among the well-known prominent national leaders of the three kingdoms, which proves the military tendency of ruling hierarchy.Although Taekwondo first appeared in the Koguryo kingdom, it is the Silla’s Hwarang warriors that are credited with the growth and spread of Taekwondo throughout Korea. Silla was the smallest of the three kingdoms and was always under attack by Japanese pirates. Silla got help from King Gwanggaeto and his soldiers from the Koguryo kingdom to drive out the pirates. During this time a few select Sillan warriors were given training in Taek Kyon by the early masters from Koguryo.TaekwondoThe Taek Kyon trained warriors became known as the Hwarang. The Hwarang set up a military academy for the sons of royalty in Silla called Hwarang-do, which means “the way of flowering manhood.” The guiding principles of the Hwarang warriors were loyalty, filial duty, trustworthiness, valor, and justice. The makeup of the Hwarang-do education was based on the Five Codes of Human Conduct written by a Buddhist scholar, fundamental education, Taek Kyon and social skills. Taek Kyon was spread throughout Korea because the Hwarang traveled all around the peninsula to learn about the other regions and people.The modern period of Taekwondo began with the liberation of Korea in 1945 after World War II. Korea wanted to eliminate Japanese influences (in martial arts) and began to unite the various martial arts schools and styles into a single style and national sport. In 1965, the name Taekwondo was chosen to represent this unified style of Korean martial arts.

- 韓国のTEAKWONDO
  Taekwondo (RP: /ˌtaɪ kwɒn ˈdəʊ/[1] or /ˌtaɪ ˈkwɒn dəʊ/,[2] GA: /ˌtaɪ kwɑːn ˈdoʊ/;[3] Korean: 태권도, Korean pronunciation: [tʰɛ.k͈wʌn.do] ( listen)) is a Korean martial art, characterized by its emphasis on head-height kicks, jumping and spinning kicks, and fast kicking techniques.Taekwondo was developed during the 1940s and 1950s by various martial artists by incorporating elements of karate and Chinese martial arts with indigenous Korean martial arts traditions such as Taekkyeon, Subak, and Gwonbeop.[4] The oldest governing body for taekwondo is the Korea Taekwondo Association (KTA), formed in 1959 through a collaborative effort by representatives from the nine original kwans, or martial arts schools, in Korea. The main international organizational bodies for taekwondo today are the International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF), founded by Choi Hong Hi in 1966, and the partnership of the Kukkiwon and World Taekwondo Federation (WTF), founded in 1972 and 1973 respectively by the Korea Taekwondo Association. Gyeorugi ([kjʌɾuɡi]), a type of full-contact sparring, has been an Olympic event since 2000. The body known for taekwondo in the Olympics is the World Taekwondo Federation.
