In Korean, my lyrics are witty and have twists. But translated into English, it doesn't come over. I've tried writing in English, just for me, but it doesn't work. I've got to know everything about a culture, and I don't.

If a Korean artist reaches to the top, we're all ready to stand up and applaud for him or her.
