“I have legs that will stand up even after falling 8 times” [~ Pt.Thirteen~]

-This was the title of a diary entry I once wrote on my homepage.-

To be honest, behind the luxury of being a celebrity, the self-regulation needed surpasses your imagination. A celebrity works under the public eye, so it’s very easy to be buried under negative press or rumors. In Big Bang’s case, the members are more thorough when it comes to self-control. We don’t go out often, and barely have any close relationships with other entertainers.

When I was an underground rapper, my name was TEMPO. Life’s tempo is so important, so to say, I slowed it down from its originally fast pace. When I debuted with Big Bang, I shortened the initials to TOP. So the name TOP partially stands for TEMPO.

Our killer schedule pushes our bodies to the limit, so I feel like I should be greedy and something. If I don’t do anything, I feel like I might not get the chance.

The world’s most fragrant perfume comes from the roses on the Balkans mountains. In order to make the best perfume, they must go during the coldest weather and pick the flowers at 2am. This is because the scent of the flower is the best at the time. Just like how the roses give off their scent at night in the cold weather, in life, we must go through many experiences to be able to give off our own scent.

While others my age were studying hard to enter college, we gave up our studies in order to pursue music. While others are enjoying their youth on campus, we are in the practice room practicing to our heart’s content. We are what we want most in this world, we don’t even have time to contemplate about how different our lives are from others.

When I first dreamed about becoming a rapper, rather just stopping at the thought of “becoming a singer”, I wrote down the reason why I wanted to be a rapper in my lyrics and thought deeply about it. To just rap without worrying is just babbling with adjectives. Rap helps express what’s on my mind to the public.

I like when I have many opinions. After much thought before coming to a conclusion, it was only then I courageously rushed out. “where does this path end?” This endless curiosity and anticipation led me to this day to be deep in thought.
