[Interviews] Daesung @ Oricon Style ~D-LITE STYLE Vol. 2

:: 8 March 2013

Vol.2 I am actually very timid…. I am afraid of ghosts


OS: Previously we talked about serious topics like “D’scover”, for today we will talk about lighter topics.

D-LITE: Because I am D-LITE (LIGHT) (laugh).



OS: Ahahaha. So, we will continue on with this type of feel.

D-LITE: Eh? Is it really ok like this?



OS: Half serious and half playing…

D-LITE: Ah~ It became difficult (laugh).



OS: No no, we will just follow D-LITE’s gut feeling. How is D-LITE, just talk about some experiences or stories that allows us to know your character.

D-LITE: Ah~ Ok, I understand. I will try. (Do it over again) Please guide me through.



OS: Yes sure. Then, for “Love” lyrics, there is a line that says “I can’t see it with my naked eyes so I don’t believe in love”, things that cannot be seen by our naked eyes like ghosts, do you believe it?

D-LITE: Yes, I believe. Ghosts… are very scary… (laugh)



OS: During Bigbang’s tour, you have to stay in hotels all around the world; did you ever experience not being able to sleep due to any weird movements or horror?

D-LITE: That I didn’t experience. The truth is, I did not see anything with my eyes at all… Precisely like this, all the horror images are conjured up by my own heart, which makes it scarier (laugh). But up till now, there has not been a case where I could not sleep, but when I was younger I will be afraid to sleep alone.



OS: Might as well say that you are sleeping better now?

D-LITE: Yes. When I sleep I don’t play music, I will let my room be pitch dark and I wouldn’t think of anything and just sleep. The feeling when I wake up is also good. What I mean is, I will wake up naturally after 6 hours of sleep. However, if I can continue to sleep, I will also fall back to sleep immediately (laugh).



OS: You can’t go to a haunted house?

D-LITE: I really really can’t make it (laugh). Last time as I was filming a TV program with Bigbang members, we had to enter the scariest haunted house in the world at Fuji-Q Highland. If not for the need for work, I will never ever step in! Now that I think of it again, sigh~ it is so torturing (wry smile). I really never expected myself to be so hardworking. It has become a good experience!



OS: So, from this line “Even if it is a minute I will make it last longer than forever just like magic”, if you know how to use magic, what magic would it be?

D-LITE: I want to be able to teleport.



OS: D-LITE who is currently traveling around the world does need a teleporter. So, if you can teleport now, where would you go too?

D-LITE: Now? Hmm~ (thought for a while)… I want to go to a skiing area. It has been 3 years since my last ski. I would like to go there and ski even for a minute, just to rest. 



OS: Then, for this line of lyric in “Singer’s Ballad”, “To blow the shadow with the arm holding the building”, D-LITE suddenly had some minor movements, is that some sort of habit?

D-LITE: I was projecting my voice from my gut. Also, I will suddenly go “Hey Hey”, to prepare my throat frequently.



OS: Is that something you do before Live?

D-LITE: It’s not only before live, I will do it anywhere…. If it’s too exaggerated I do it when I am sleeping previously too (laugh). To be honest, when asked if it is good for the throat, I do not have proof, but doing this allows me to relax and soothe my nervous mood.



OS: So I can say that the moment you do a lot of throat exercises is when you are feeling a lot of stress.

D-LITE: Yes Yes! (suddenly made noises from his throat)



OS: Is that to say you are at your maximum nervousness level now?

D-LITE: Yes Yes! (cough cough)



OS: You are at the point where you have started coughing, it seems serious (laugh). I am sorry for being rude. D-LITE san, in the first glance you look easygoing and happy, but you have a higher level of sensitivity than others about the people around you.  You must be the type of person who gets more nervous when there is more people around you right?

D-LITE: The me last time will think of many redundant things, thus I will become negatively nervous, I brought burden to myself but now, I am learning how to face things positively from V.I (laugh).I am trying to change to positive thoughts in my own heart, including the stress I receive, I am able to happily enjoy everything now. With regards to people around me, because I notice them sub-consciously, I did not bring nervousness to myself. Someone who makes me nervous is ultimately myself. The me now feels good (suddenly sang) “despite blowing the shadow with the arm that holds the building~ the melody we are riding on never ends…”!!



OS: It’s perfect!

D-LITE: Is it really ok like this? (laugh)



OS: Yes. In the next issue, we will talk about D-LITE’s center, please continue like this.

D-LITE: Yes Yes! (cough cough)… Ah I’m joking (laugh). For a period of time after this, I will still have continued projects, so I hope everybody will wait for it! Please help me out for album “D’scover” too!
