Quotes

“I am a believer in fate. If good things happen, I think it’s meant to be. On the other hand, when bad things happen, I tell myself that it’s the hardships now that will lead to a better future, instead of nitpicking at the cause and effect.”

“I’ve developed confidence at what I do, but I still fall into a rut occasionally. At such times, I picture my future and visualise the things I want to do, and my initial thoughts and feelings will go away.”

“It hasn’t been easy, both physically and mentally, to do my best on all three fronts (singing, acting and modelling). Going all in on one made me feel like a bad person in another. I personally think I’ve done pretty good so far.”

“My original personality shows when I’m around people I am comfortable with. There are areas where I’ve become more careful; looking three times before I leap and being more cautious with my words.”

“I feel like there’s a difference between desire and ambition. In my mind, the bigger the desire, the better; but the bigger the ambition, the more reckless it becomes.”

“I want to break out of the judgment that I can only play cool-looking characters. I really want to try new things […] I have confidence that I can do a role that would break [my image] into pieces.”

“Only last year, I had the thought that I wanted to turn 30 soon. However, now I think 25 is also good. That’s because this time right now won’t ever return again.”

“My greed for work is greater than anyone else. Honestly, there are times when I feel like I’ve lost my way, or I feel like I can’t see right in front of me very well. When I’m like that, I imagine and paint my future, and as I find things I want to do one by one, I begin to wonder when I even thought such things.”

“I feel that managing my mind and emotions is really important. That’s why I think more about making decisions and concentrating. In other words, I go back and forth.”

“We won the prize [as Astro] six years after our debut, during which we’d gotten a lot of junior colleagues. I want to seem a bit dignified. Honestly, I was really happy on the inside.”

“I’m not trying to be humble on purpose, even if you were to compliment me all I’d say is ‘thank you’. I think it’s been ingrained in me because of how my mum raised me since young.”

“I like to show people a new side of myself, so I want to keep trying out new activities in the future.”
