During shows and interviews, I want to tell people exactly how I feel and I thought that if I am honest and straightforward, then people will accept my words for what it is, but that's not how it works. My way of thinking is too naïve.

Japanese movie "Be With You" served as inspiration for "Love Box." I couldn't fill up the album with just my experiences.

I watched and learned about music as a member of Big Bang. Of course it's important to show my charms as an artist by showing my abilities but that's what our solo activities are for.

I wanted to deliver the emotions a man feels when he's in love. For example, through song "GG BE," I wanted to the express the feelings of being deceived by a woman (the song also contains the woman's counterargument).

I'd like to do music in the same way - in a witty way. People think of YG artists as rarely appearing on TV but I'd like to make Big Bang fans happy through various mediums.

Growing a moustache wouldn't really coordinate with the group dynamics.

I want to show people my appeal through my simplicity rather than being 'I'm good looking; I know how to dress' that kind of way.
