Congrats! SOLO activities ♥
Which faction is Bigbang’s D-LITE from?!
D-LITE, member of Bigbang who made the world crazy. D-LITE who possesses voice
that can attract fans will be releasing his Japanese debut solo cover album.
From his stories of the production process to his bare face private Q&A is
a must read!
Q: Did you encounter any difficulty being a MC for live shows in Japan?
YES OR NO
D-LITE: Yes! Whenever the audience
can’t seem to laugh (laugh). Majority of the MC is prepared by V.I, being
requested to do jokes the Japanese shows did, but when we see the blur
expressions in the front row, I will think of “just move on to the next song!!”
like this. However, when V.I is not around, our MC-ing becomes very boring
(laugh). It is because we have good teamwork!
Q: If you can choose a job and work only for a week, what will you choose?
A: Bigbang’s manager
B: 2NE1’s manager
D-LITE: A! With an objective point of
view, Bigbang in private is very interesting. If I become the manager, the most
troublesome person will be T.O.P san (speaking softly). He prepares slowly and
likes to drink red wine so I think I will have to drink red wine with him every
night (laugh). 2NE1 are all girls so there are many areas that I do not
understand, I will just feel like protecting them! I might even become
neurotic!
Q: Which type will you choose as a girlfriend?
A: Very good in being a listener
B: Good talker
D-LITE: Someone who can talk well.
Although I like to talk too, it is good to answer “mmm, mmm” when the other
person is talking ♥
Q: Which type of girl will ignite something in your heart?
A: Good at taking care of people
B: Girl who is rushed or rough
D-LITE: A. I like girls who can grow
with me together. Rushed/rough girls are cute but I don’t think I like it
(laugh). Me? I am not oh!
Q: If your girlfriend requests to wear a couple teeshirt?
YES OR NO
D-LITE: ….. Yes (looks very unwilling).
To be honest, I am very shy so I don’t really like it~. If I really have to
wear it, it doesn’t need to look obvious. Ring or socks are fine. If it is
socks people can’t see it (laugh).
Q: If you debut in Japan with another profile other than a singer?
A: Comedian
B: Actor
D-LITE: Actor. An actor’s charm is
being able to change into another person. A happy guy can change into a dark
character. I am not an interesting person so I am not confident with comedy.
Q: What type of smiles do you like on females?
A: Having a smile often
B: Occasionally having a shy smile
D-LITE: If it’s B there will be a warm
feeling eh~. However as long as it is a smile I will like it all ♥
Q: In your company (YG), are there any female artists you would like to date
with?
YES OR NO
D-LITE: No (in Korean)! There is a cute
girl… but I only think that she is cute!! (confirmed that there are no
feelings)
Q: If Doraemon takes something out for you?
A: Anywhere Door
B: Torchlight that can be reduced in size
D-LITE: A! If I have superpowers, I
want to be able to teleport. The place I want to go now is Japan’s ski resort
and hot spring! I came to Japan so many times but I have never been there
before…
Q: I am the best singer in YG.
YES OR NO
D-LITE: NO!! The male who sings the
best is Se7en san. I think Se7en san sings very well even in the morning
(laugh). For females it would be Gummy san.
Q: The hairstyle for cute girls should be?
A: Double ponytails
B: Hair with a bow
D-LITE: A. For B, the cuteness seems
too much. For A it would be “I am very cute right” (low pitch) type of feel.
And for B it would be “I am very cute right” (high pitch)(laugh). But
basically, anything is good but I still prefer natural.
I hope to respect the memories of the original songs you guys had and create a
new world with my voice
Q: Bigbang’s D-LITE who always leaves deep impression for others because of his
smile on his face will be releasing his gem cover album “D’scover”. “Every song
seems to be sung by a different person?” is what people will think. Listeners
will feel something different after listening to D-LITE san’s “7 color voice”
and his expressive performance.
D-LITE: The rhythm and melody is all
different, so it is important to match the atmosphere. Trying different voice
to express the song, searching for the perfect tone for recording, but the
female artists key is too different so I met an obstacle. Also, the pronunciation!
I can’t pronounce “TSU” and “N” so I did many practice (laugh).
Q: I think what you have tried the hardest is not to spoil the mood set by the
original song.
D-LITE: The original songs are all very
famous, so everybody has their own impressions in their mind when listening to
the songs. There are times where people were being encouraged while listening
to the songs either previously or now. I want to respect everybody’s memories
in their hearts. Then I want to mix my colors in. The proportion of the
original song and my color will be 5:5, or 7:3 changes depending on the song,
but searching for the balance is really difficult. I want to highlight my
special side. Only the melody and song cannot be expressed. It also means I
want to create a new perspective from my voice. The song that underwent the
most changes was “Joyful”, I personally like music like brass band, so I
discussed the re-arrangement of the song with my staff. The song I love the
most is “Singer’s Ballad”! This is a song that I came upon accidentally and
fell in love with and decided to add it into my album!
Q: Starting from 23rd March, you will be having your first solo live tour
already.
D-LITE: It is the first time being
alone so I am worried and burdened and also feeling stressful. But a concert is
where I can see my fans, and that is the happiest time for me. Now I am doing
all sorts of preparation so please wait for it ♪
BTS of Interview
D-LITE tried answering all questions using Japanese! When he received the
strawberries he said happily “everybody, let’s eat together!!”, then he put the
plates at the center of the table carefully. Even with the editor’s amateur
Korean, D-LITE smiled and gave a Good! He is supposedly a superstar yet he did
not do anything to cover his natural side. It is a relaxed interview that
allows us to know the reason why he is so loved by his fans and staff.
