While being interviewed for a recent photoshoot with fashion, beauty and lifestyle magazine ALLURE Korea, Daesung revealed his thoughts on BIGBANG.
Daesung is focusing on his solo activities. Confessing heartfelt thoughts during his first live tour in seven years, he said, “I think performing is the most valuable thing a singer can do. It’s stressful during song preparation, but the happiness when I start singing and performing on stage is irreplaceable. After all, performance seems to be the driving force behind all my activities.”
When asked the reason for his great affection for performing, Daesung said, “Thanks to BIGBANG’s activities, I was able to naturally experience the liveliness of the performance. Those experiences inspired me a lot.”
Daesung said he was a little scared when he first launched the “ZIP Daesung” YouTube channel, but now he is proud of it. He shared, “When I first received the offer I was very worried. I think the YouTube market is already very developed and there are so many interesting channels. But I’m happy that my channel is doing well. Above all, the fans have a lot of fun. Taeyang and G-Dragon also like them.”
Daesung debuted as a member of BIGBANG in 2006 and celebrated his 18th debut anniversary this year. When asked if he felt these feelings after traveling in silence on a long journey, he replied: “When I go out I meet so many people who say ‘I was a VIP!’. In these moments I feel that I have been active for a long time.” Revealing his mindset, Daesung said, “I feel touching every time I remember those moments. But you shouldn’t get drunk on that feeling. Let’s not exaggerate. The past is the past and we still have the future ahead of us. I’m grateful to be able to sing for so long.”
