I told myself I'd do well by using the experience I gained during my seven years as Big Bang. In my mind, the executive producer is the person that is in charge of everything up to the point that the album comes out. So not just the music but also the music video, album artwork, photographs, and even the material the album itself would be made out of.

I don't like to collect music. I don't want it if only I liked it.

I wanted to do things that had never been seen before so a lot of research went into it. Oh, even though I like Justin, but during Strong Baby I did more research on Craig David Daniel Craig for reference.

I wanna try being a waiter at restaurant or work to introduce Korea to other people!

When I do something wrong, members will think it's because I'm the maknae and things will be ok.

I want to make music that lots of people will love.

Challenges aren't frightening, defeats aren't terrifying either. A principle that I now insist and persist on is the understanding that you can fulfill your dreams when you work hard and don't give up.
