We made our debut in Japan about few years ago and when we went on a morning show there to promote our album, I did a brief interview in Japanese using simple expressions such as "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu." But one of the members of our group said, "Stay quiet if you can't speak Japanese! It's embarrassing!" So that's when I told myself that I'd show how good I am by studying Japanese hard.

All the songwriters that I worked with said they'd like to work with me again. Such things serve as much inspiration for me. I regard myself a melody maker so it made me happy to be recognized for my work.

There's nothing I can do about looking short. I'm born this way. And my face is on the long side so I look even shorter on screen. It's not an issue that can be solved by inserting extra heels into my shoes.

If the majority of people said I did something wrong, then I must be wrong, and I will think 'I didn't even mean it like that, why are you treating me like this?' But if a lot of people say that I'm wrong and it's not good, then it must be not good. I will say, 'Okay' and then tell myself that this cannot happen again. I have to grasp it and change it for the better.

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.

Our styles [with G-Dragon] are too different. I like simplicity so it's.....too different.

I'm the maknae. All my clothes are picked by my stylist because I don't have an eye for fashion.

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.

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.

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 wanted the song to contain various meanings, and what I wanted in particular was to appeal to the audience with my charms as a man.

When asked, "What do you think love is?" a lot of people speak of things that are painful or lingering. I wanted to talk about various sides to love. Things such as the excitement, happiness, parting, pain, regret regarding love.

If I had more time, I could've utilized the stage more and turned it into my own but since I used all my energy writing and producing songs, my mind was blank when it came to my performances. That's what I regret the most.

Everyone's talking about insoles nowadays, saying that it's a male necessity. To tell you the truth, I always use it because for people like me that started dancing at a very young age, it's more stable for me if my heel is pushed back a little. I wear it because it can make me dance better. But of course, since I wear it, my legs look longer too.

Daniel Craig is the new James Bond. I did a lot of research on him too but during the promotions, I focused mainly on Johnny Depp. There's a mysterious charm about him just by the way he looks, talks and moves.

Reality is that even if you come out with a really good song, all will go to waste without good promotion.

I put in the sounds of instruments such as the guitar and piano, which everybody hears often, and tried to go with melodies that would sound familiar. Rather than trying to do music that I want to do, I focused on doing music that I want my fans to hear.

Nobody in Big Bang receives vocal lessons anymore. We're impossible to teach because we already have very distinctive colors.

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