Sungkyu is here. Welcome.
Hello, everyone.
I'm Sungkyu. Good to be here.
It's been 3 years since you came out
as a solo artist not as part of Infinite.
How have you been?
Well...
I did musicals and...
I did variety shows as well.
I promoted with Infinite.
I've been pretty busy.
While he was busy,
there's something we should congratulate him for.
You turned 30, Sungkyu.
- Goodness... / - I should be congratulated for that?
Of course. You really should be.
Thank you so much!
Whenever I see Sungkyu,
he doesn't change.
I think he ages backwards.
So I prepared something with the staff.
You didn't have to.
I always want to prepare something for you.
I actually saw it.
- You did? / - Down there.
You weren't supposed to see it.
I'd like to show you
how Sungkyu has been aging backwards.
He really doesn't change over time.
Look...
Who is this?
How old were you here?
- That's me? / - Yes.
When was this?
I was in elementary school.
How about this?
Middle school.
And this one?
High school?
Yes, high school.
And this was from Infinite?
I'm not sure who this is.
If you take a look...
I only see changes in the hairstyles.
They all look the same.
I don't see many differences
between this one and this one.
We put a hole in the last photo
because if you stuck your head in here...
- Oh, I put my head in there? / - Hold on.
You'll look the same.
Put your face in.
Face forward.
He hasn't changed.
What happened to you in middle school?
In middle school and high school.
My middle school photo...
Really...
Looks like an old photo.
That's why...
I've seen a character like this in a drama.
No. Don't look for him.
I think I've seen this guy on "Prison Playbook."
- What's your next question for me? / - No?
- This is a gift. Hang it up at home. / - Oh, this?
Our staff worked very hard on that.
- You can put it down. / - Thank you.
As of this shoot, it was yesterday.
He deserves applause for this.
Sungkyu put out his first official solo album.
- This is... / - Thank you.
For a singer,
an official album is very meaningful.
And it's a solo album.
Please tell us about it.
The album is called "Ten Stories."
That's what it's called.
10 stories.
I'm sure you all know what that means.
So that's what it means.
My official album
was produced by Kim Jongwan of NELL.
The title track is called "True Love."
I hope many people listen to it.
When I look at Sungkyu...
I feel mixed emotions.
Whenever he does an interview
and he's asked how he became a singer,
he always says Kim Jongwan inspired him.
Is he like your hero or role model?
How did Kim Jongwan become your role model?
I just loved his music...
Not so much when I was struggling
but when I was tired.
And when I
moved to Seoul to become a singer...
- It was really... / - It gave you hope.
- You worked part-time jobs back then. / - Right.
That's when his songs gave you strength?
Very much so.
Which song?
NELL has the song "Limit."
- "Limit?" / - Yes.
The song...
I...
When I gave something my best effort...
But it didn't go as I planned.
That's when I listened to that song a lot.
Which line consoled you the most?
The line...
"With a few words and a few gestures..."
"And a few looks with a flowing heart."
I should sing this to remember it. How does it go?
Sing it then.
I'll give it a shot.
♪ With a few words and a few gestures ♪
♪ And a few looks with a flowing heart ♪
♪ I'm just a weak person that cries and laughs at those ♪
♪ What more do you want from me? ♪
If I was Kim Jongwan...
I'd feel like I found my purpose in making music.
You need to please the people
and sell a lot of albums...
But to have someone say that
one of my songs gave them hope
and made them continue to pursue their dream...
And sang it in front of me...
I'd be so glad that I got into music.
I actually told this to Jongwan and sang for him.
What did he say?
"Oh, great."
He sounded so nonchalant.
"Oh, great."
That cocky punk.
Really?
- For him... / - I bet he was thrilled.
I'm sure he was inside.
- He doesn't express himself. / - He doesn't show it.
Right.
So when he made the song
and wrote the lyrics...
He was thinking of the people
that criticized him for his music changing...
Even though he hasn't change.
He wrote the song to tell people that
he wasn't going to try to appeal to them anymore.
But to me...
Music is funny like that.
That was the intention of that song
yet I interpreted it differently...
- When I was struggling. / - You're right.
And those lyrics really uplifted me.
Sungkyu writes lyrics too.
For this album...
I tend to look at the credits
as I listen to a song.
I thought you'd be mentioned a lot.
I thought so too.
But I saw Kim Jongwan's name more.
You're talented enough to write your own songs.
What happened there?
Well...
For my last album...
I even sang the song I wrote here...
- Right, right. / - On this show.
And I wrote a few songs afterwards...
So when we were working on this album,
I showed him the lyrics I wrote
as well as 2 songs that I made.
And Jongwan said...
What did he say?
To me...
After he heard the songs I wrote...
"Do what you're good at."
That's what he said.
- What is that? / - I asked him what he meant.
"You're a singer. You shouldn't try to compose.
Just sing.
I'd like you to focus on your singing."
- That's what he said. / - He thinks you're being greedy...
When you're good enough already?
Yes, so...
I figured I should focus more on singing.
I showed him some of my lyrics
and my writing too.
He read them and he said
he wanted to make songs with a lot of them.
So I wrote the lyrics with him for one song.
And he referred to my writing a lot
when making the other songs.
I can understand this.
Let's say I'm a movie director
and he's a top actor
but he keeps complaining about the script.
He keeps asking for changes in the script,
so I tell him, "Just focus on acting."
I think it's exactly like that.
I guess you could say that.
As you said, your title track is called "True Love."
What's it about?
This song...
Anyone that's had a crush on someone...
On someone very close to you.
Like a friend...
Or a colleague.
Anyone that's had a crush like that
should relate to this song.
It's kind of like...
My feelings for this person have gotten so big
that it's become too hard to hide.
So I should be brave and tell them.
That happens.
That's what the song is about.
I'm sure everyone's had a crush on someone.
So please listen to my song.
I see.
You'll sing "True Love" for us next.
Is this your first time performing it?
This is my first TV appearance
since my album was released.
So it's my first time performing it on TV.
