One part of the interview that stood out to me was TOP’s comments about his future as a musician and releasing music, something he hasn’t done in a long time. At the beginning of the article, he revealed that he would be sharing music for the first time in a decade.
What I hope to do currently is share with the TOPs of the world – me as a musician – why I will share my music [for the first time] in almost a decade. TOP musician would be the character I want to play 1737627636.

He then added his regrets and reflections on himself over the years, adding that this has allowed his “musical universe” to change and influenced the music fans may soon hear.
Over the years, I spent a lot of time really thinking about and regretting what I had done, and I also spent a lot of time in self-reflection. I think those years allowed my musical universe to change a lot. I feel like my music has gotten richer and expanded in size too, so I’m pretty confident that my fans will feel that I’ve matured musically.

When the article was published, netizens surprisingly couldn’t stop sharing their excitement over the possibility of new music from TOP after so long.
