“For example, when we practiced dance, some of the members would instantly master a move I would need several repetitions to get. I would get dejected. 'Wow, those guys are so talented. We're in the same classes, but how could they be so much better?”

“What am I going to do, except accept it. Our schedule was so packed that it was a matter of, 'Is my body going to break first, or my mind?' And my body was so tired, my mind did not have the strength to be anxious, even.”

“On what he was like as a trainee, V remembered himself less as a person who did his best unconditionally and more as someone who had to "like" something to do it. He needed, therefore, the leisure to recharge and take stock just as much as he needed practice to improve. He referred to this as "the adolescence of the mind," which could be interpreted as the determination to attain personal happiness over material "success." I tell myself a lot that I will become a better person. But I think I have to become happy myself first or somehow receive a kind of energy in order to take a step closer to becoming that better person. It's the same when I'm inspired. In the beginning of the pandemic, when our entire schedule was canceled and we could rest a bit, I suddenly had this craving to see the ocean at night. So I went with an old school friend to Sokcho in the middle of the night. We lit sparklers, recorded the sound of the ocean, and tried writing songs over the recordings of the night waves. Seeing the ocean at night when I really wanted to see it as opposed to when I really didn't was incredibly different. When my heart is satisfied this way, I take note of the emotions that come to me and write them down.”

“Whether you're under pressure or not, what you really need to prepare is your heart. Thinking about this and that will only make you too anxious to do even the things you're good at doing. Let go of the pressure, put behind yourself all that you've done before, and get up on that stage with just one thing, your heart.”

“The stages and performances were something we really wanted to do and now we were doing it, but our schedule was just so harsh...Afraid our affection for the work would diminish, that it would become simply "work," we all decided, "Let's take a little time for ourselves.”

“If I'd had to find the answer to every question on my own every time, it would've been a really hard path to follow, but I think I was always influenced by the people around me. Who likes me, whom I get onstage with, who will lead me, who will support me. These are what's really important to me.”

“I'd relied so much on him and the members of BTS, which I suppose meant a part of me had always sought his approval. So hearing him say that did put my feelings in order a bit...In any case, I'm surrounded by good people and beloved by our fans, so how could I ever fail?”

“I think that's how I became conscious of how to think. As I began to have favorite artists, I found new ways of communicating with myself. A work of art is the visual result of an artist who had thought long and hard about things, right? With so much trial and error put into it. Which is why I feel such a catharsis in seeing the results of an artist putting out a piece of art as if they were saying, "This is what I think," after going through all that processing.”
