Find out what he had to say…

On fame and hardships in the spotlight:

“It would be a lie to say that nothing was difficult. But I think one of the best things that happened in my life is that I met such great people and I have our members right by my side. Thanks to them I could overcome hardships and become a better person.”

On whether he deletes his songs he doesn’t like:

“I used to delete songs I worked on if I didn’t like them the next day, but members kept telling me I shouldn’t do that but keep it for later. So now I don’t delete songs right away as much anymore. But if I still don’t like it after a long time I just delete it.”

On what’s in his big backpack on tour:

“Toothbrush, toothpaste, cologne, charger, tablet, face mask, lip balm and what else. I usually carry those necessities.”

On his last concert memory:

“I really liked Harry Styles’ and Bruno Mars’ concerts. But I missed Bruno’s concert in Korea as I was shooting something at that time.”
