In addition to its ocean views, sunset scenery, night vistas, and romantic ambiance, as well as being Taiwan’s only lover’s wharf named after love, Xingda Port now has a new highlight — Mayday’s “Future Colossus” has reappeared at Lover’s Wharf. The city government’s Marine Bureau specially completed the installation just before National Day, and it is expected to become a new topic of conversation during the National Day holiday, attracting a large number of fans to visit.

The Future Colossus stands 3.5 meters tall, is 6.2 meters long, and weighs 1 ton, making it a massive installation artwork. When asked about the meaning of the colossus, Mayday’s lead vocalist Ashin once said, “Looking back on the journey, every step has been tough, but I’ve never doubted, because I’ve always felt that there was a steady, huge, kind friend by my side, accompanying me every step of the way.” The Marine Bureau specifically contacted the management agency of the Mayday band and obtained their agreement to donate the “Future Colossus” to Kaohsiung’s Xingda Port Lover’s Wharf, conveying the message of safeguarding eternal love and happiness. It will leave the shared memories of 170,000 people at Lover’s Wharf in Xingda Port.
