  1. 1:30 in and I'm thinking, "This guy was born in America or Australia or something"

    I know a ton of Asian artists study English to boost their careers, but the little English he'd spoken thus far was better than what I expected for the average, native Japanese

    I was about to Google him but then he started singing even more English…

    But as I started googling his name, i was like, 'wait, that's a Korean looking name"

    And it turns out he was actually born in Korea. Good on him for seemingly learning English so well. It's difficult to learn foreign languages. I always respect the effort and admire the person

  2. これLIVEで聞いたら絶対もっとかっこいいんだよな~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!
    ツアーで聞けるの楽しみにしてます🥰
