How do they recognize me by looking at my hands?
Hello, everyone.
Long time no see.
It's JIMIN time.
Wait a moment.
Long time no see.
Right. I've come back to see you.
We haven't seen each other for a long time, right?
Is my hairstyle beautiful
Great.
I was thinking about which color I should dye my hair this time.
It was Seoul Music Awards, right? It's when I first showed this?
I wanted to change my hair color into purple at Seoul Music Awards.
So I did.
I'm happy that you like it.
I think I've made a right decision.
My hair color changed many times recently, right?
I've had many different colors in the recent few months.
I was tempted to
change my hair color.
What's the name of the movie in which the hair color changes frequently?
Something like the movie.
I'm in the hotel now.
I've come back after the concert.
I've had a meal.
I had a meal when I got here.
When I performed so passionately on stage, I get so hungry.
So, I had a meal and
I also had spicy chicken noodles.
I like it so much.
My face might be red now.
Today...
Probably, it's been 4 years since we last came to Singapore.
We've come here after a long time.
I was so surprised that
we were able to perform on a large scale stage.
I had so much fun today.
We had a very heated concert today.
There were a lot of people cheering
for us.
A lot of people at the site
encouraged and touched
us while we were performing.
And literally we could feel the heat.
When I stretch my head like this on stage,
my face gets heated.
So...
I was worried when I had a rehearsal.
Because the place was very heated.
I've seen many fans who
got fainted while cheering so eagerly for us
at a very hot atmosphere.
I was worried that something similar might happen today.
That's how I thought today.
But I had so much fun today. I was very thankful.
I think it will stay in my memory for a long time.
It was so hot today.
"Are you feeling good?" Yes, I'm feeling good.
"ARMY never falls."
I feel so thankful but you should take care of yourself.
I've had a meal a while ago.
Hanging cabbages to avoid heat in Busan?
Does it help?
Cabbage?
If you eat cabbage,
you don't feel hot?
Cabbage?
What is it?
Isn't cabbage good for stomach?
That's what I know.
It's good for stomach.
Please eat cabbage if you have an inflammation in the stomach.
It's not tasty but
it's very effective.
You put cabbage on your head?
I should search it.
I can't bear it when I get curious.
I'll search it.
Should I search "Busan baseball stadium cabbage?"
Busan.
Baseball stadium.
Cabbage.
What should I search?
I searched "Busan baseball stadium cabbage."
What should I write in the search engine to get the information I want?
Oh, I've found it. Cabbage cap that keeps you from heat.
If you put a leaf of cabbage inside your cap,
it will help you feel less hot.
It will decrease your body temperature.
That's what it says.
You body temperature drops if you put cabbage on your head.
Interesting.
I should put cabbage on the heads of
members after performance.
Right. My hair grows fast.
My hair designer is tired of it.
My hair is very thick and
my hair grows very fast.
I need to dye my hair very often.
Don't worry about my hair. It is alive.
When I was in Korea,
I released "Promise."
When "Promise" was revealed,
I wanted to turn on V LIVE to
talk with you.
But I missed the timing.
So I thought that I should turn on V LIVE
when I arrive in the hotel in Singapore. So I'm here now.
Thank you for listening to the song
very often.
Are you enjoying listening to the song?
Thank you for loving the song.
Thank you.
I was planning to
tell you how I started making the song
"Promise."
Can I say it now?
I'm confused what to
say now.
Wait a moment.
I feel like I'm doing a video call now even if
I can only see my face.
My little finger is short.
I didn't stretch it out.
"Promise..."
It's been so long since I started
working on the song.
It's been about 7 months
6 or 7 months.
I think it's been 5 or 6 months.
When I first started working on the song,
it was not a comforting song.
Originally...
It was orginally...
It was a song that scolds myself.
So I was thinking of
a dark song.
That's how Istarted.
I had many things to add into
this song but I couldn't think of
the right word that fits the song.
So I spent 3 or 4 months thinking of the right word.
I didn't know what to do.
I think I've made a dozen chorus for this song.
I've made too many.
I've adjusted the song many times.
And I had to go back to the beginning.
So almost half of the song
has the melody that I thought of at first.
I didn't have enough time
when I first started working on the song.
So...
I was trying to find the solution.
I used to talk with NAM JOON and
he would say that
the music was his solution.
We had a long conversation about it.
So I wanted to do something similar.
I wanted to find the solution by making the song.
So...
I started working on the song.
I was feeling
so down and my mindset was dim.
So I was fixated on
dark songs.
When you look at the lyrics,
"What's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong with you?"
I wrote lyrics that could almost be seen as bad words.
That's what I can recall now.
And then...
Something...
I think things got better.
Members and the atmosphere got better.
The dark feelings that
I had first disappeared.
I felt okay.
I couldn't think of the dark feelings that I had.
So it was difficult to compose the song.
But I had to finish working on the song.
When we were having a concert at Citi Field
in America, I could think of the word
"Promise."
So I told NAM JOON that
I wanted to work on the
song.
He asked me "What is it?"
I said it's "Promise" and I explained on it.
He told me to start working on it right away.
That's when I started working on it.
I finished it within
one or two months.
I could make progress after I thought of the word "Promise."
NAM JOON also helped me a lot.
This is the first song that
I made both lyrics
and melody.
I made the melody and
the lyrics.
If you listen to the song,
you will know that there is a lot of "you."
For example, "you made me sick."
Or "you don't even know it."
Actually "You" is me.
This song was actually a song for me.
I think it was NAM JOON who
changed from "me" to "you."
That's what NAM JOON did for me.
And he also made all the English lyrics.
Because I can't speak English well.
I asked him how to translate some
lyrics into English.
NAM JOON helped me a lot.
Actually about the chorus,
I told NAM JOON that
I wanted to say "I want you to love yourself."
But it was
too long.
He said he doesn't know what to do.
I think NAM JOON is a genius. This is what he answered.
He thought about it for 2 or 3 minutes.
And he gave me the lyrics.
The lyrics were so beautiful and contain
a very good meaning.
So I said thank you to him.
That's how I composed "Promise."
I actually wanted to
tell you why I started composing the song.
I'll tell you what made me so tired and sad that
I had to start composing this song.
I'm not
not honest.
That's my personality.
I hate it so much. That's why I started composing this song.
Why can't I say something honestly?
I should say that I'm tired when I feel tired.
But I can't be honest with myself.
That's what made me feel so suffocated.
And that's the reason why I composed this song.
But things got better.
At first I wanted to write negative lyrics but
after meeting friends and
talking with members and
meeting fans at a concert, there was something
that I realized.
When you feel tired, you are the one who suffers.
The same applied to me.
I think I was wrong.
I thought that I was tired and lonely.
But after meeting and drinking with
friends and members,
I realized that
there are just
a few people that you
can be honest with.
There are a lot of people who would
feel more tired than I do and can't be
honest with themselves.
That's how I felt.
And when I was performing at the
Citi Field, I realized something.
Let's make a resolution and a promise.
Situation can be miserable but
let's not make myself miserable.
Let's not insult myself.
That's how I felt.
That's how I thought of the word "Promise."
And I wanted many people
to listen to the song.
I wanted to comfort as many people as possible.
That's the mindset I had when I worked on the song.
And I could think of what I really want to say,
and the song "Promise" was born.
I was so happy that many of you liked it and listened to it.
It's the first song that I composed.
I had so much fun and
there are a lot of episodes.
When I was working on it,
the chorus
sleep 3 days straight
to make the chorus.
I spent most of the time at at a workroom.
I often thought of our members.
When we start working on our album,
You know, it took 7 months for me to finish working on one track.
On the contrary,
other members finished several tracks in one to two months.
That's amazing.
And what I'm doing know is what they used to do.
I should spend all the time at a workroom.
I respect them.
And thought that they worked really hard.
Also I was thankful that our members wrote good lyrics and melodies for our team.
I thought about many things.
Amazing thing.
Creating something is... really difficult.
Maybe I'm not so talented.
It took so long for on song, as long as 7 months!
But I really enjoyed working on music.
I wish,
I could work on more songs and have you listen to those songs.
You have me know about what you think and feel,
through letters and postings on our website.
Albums, of course,
can describe what we feel and think,
at the moment of preparing them,
but I thought there are other routes,
through which we can express our feelings in a more honest way.
So I'll try hard to make more opportunities,
to express myself to you through music that I worked on.
Anyways, thank you for loving "Promise".
RM helped me a lot.
Other members also supported me.
RM told me...
Wait.
His words were so impressive.
I want to tell you what he told me.
While writing some lyrics in English,
he told me something and I wrote it down.
I really loved the last part.
I want you to be your night.
You could be the... be your...
You could be your night.
I want you to be your night.
He told me this.
I want you to be your night.
I want you to know that darkness and brightness are all part of you.
He wanted to add this message in the lyrics.
Well, your hope and darkness are all part of you,
but you can lose yourself,
when you don't recognize it and admit it. He told this to me.
That was... I was impressed.
He said that.
And,
there's another thing.
There are "be your light" and "be your night".
When the sun goes down, the night comes and when the night goes, the sun rises.
All the pain and sorrow will pass by.
He told me that he also wanted to send out this message.
That's...
It's really cool. How could he come up with such a fantastic phrase.
I learn a lot from our members.
Amazing.
How can he write such lyrics.
I was so impressed,
so I wanted to tell you that RM wrote the lyrics,
which these ideas and attitude.
He's amazing.
What's this?
"Who made a cough sound"?
"Who did that"?
It's not cough, I've just eaten spicy chicken noodles,
so my throat is dried up.
"Who did that"?
"I want to watch your live, but mom told me to go to bed".
You should listen to what your mom says.
There's no one like mom.
And like dad.
Go to bed.
Anyways, I started this live to tell you about "Promise".
It's the end.
I've done with it.
I wrote this song through this process,
and thank you for listening.
The end.
I'm going to bed.
"Happy birthday Seongwon".
"My boyfriend hates you, but I can't live without you,
if I can live without my boyfriend".
Stop it!
Your boyfriend will come to beat me.
Oh, glasses.
"Did you find your glasses at Seoul Music Festival?" No, I didn't.
I wanted glasses,
that's how I got those glasses.
And hairstyle, I did this hair that day.
I loved my decisions.
During a rehearsal, when I threw the glasses,
I saw them just in front of me.
I thought that I could pick them up after finishing the stage.
But during our real performance,
I was so distracted,
so I even forgot to pick my glasses.
I returned after our stage,
and nothing was there.
So I don't have glasses now.
I loved those glasses but they left me.
I was not scolded.
I asked my stylists to get me another.
When I get another one,
I'll put them one.
Midnight is just 10 minutes away.
In Korea, it's already 1 am.
1 am.
Other countries?
I think other members just took shower and got into their bed.
Maybe they're taking the same position with me.
I go to bed late.
Last night, I fell asleep almost in the morning.
I started this live because I had something to tell you,
I finished it,
so I have no idea what to say.
Oh,
I'm not sure I should tell this to you,
JIN talked about heartbreaking story at MAMA.
That...
I wanted to say thank you to you.
"Promise",
When I decided to write that song,
I wasn't in a good mood,
and other members,
they didn't have enough room to think about other things.
We kind of successfully pass through that time.
We could do that,
all thanks to you,
thank you.
We, our members and I,
get a lot of energy from you.
That's why I wrote this song, I wanted to be your energy.
Yes.
And...
It's 2019.
New year.
It's January.
A new year has started,
and do you have any plan for this year?
It's new year.
I have many plans for this year.
First of all...
I want to...
travel.
And I never went out to find some good restaurants.
I want to go around for good foods.
I want to try.
And,
I want to write songs,
and show them to you.
We're working on our new album,
so I want to improve my voice for that album.
And,
anything else...
I want to see you more often,
and have more concerts.
Oh, you talk about SUNG WOON.
He...
We have a lot in common.
So we felt that we could be good friends when we first saw each other.
Oh, you are I and I am you.
For years,
we've been close friends.
Haven't V told you?
He's been working on a song,
he's doing it,
V already talked about it, right?
I shouldn't mention it before he does.
I'm really looking forward.
I didn't have an opportunity to listen to the song.
I asked him to have me listen to it after the song is completed.
Let's wait for it altogether.
Okay?
Is there any problem?
It's a new year,
so I want you to do whatever you want to do.
You should enjoy your life.
I told you,
Pleasure and happiness, that's all what we should enjoy in our lives.
No matter what you're doing.
What matters is whether you're happy or not.
Being happy is the most important thing.
I learned it from JIN.
JIN is so innocent.
JIN and SUGA talk a lot about happiness.
I learned things about happiness from JIN.
At first, JIN and I used to be really different persons. You saw it?
I...
I used to be so serious on everything.
I tried to find meanings out of everything.
And I thought that I should always be busy.
I pushed myself to live busy.
JIN was totally the opposite.
What matters for him is being happy,
and enjoying the moment.
Nothing seems to be a huge problem, but there used to be so many clashes between JIN and I.
I told him "Hey, that's wrong, I don't understand why you do that".
But I felt,
with age,
I'm still young but, with age,
I realize that many things that I heard from JIN were right.
I could belatedly understand what he told me,
and realized that he said things for me.
But I just denied and refused.
We talked about this a lot last year.
I told him that what he had said was right.
I told him.
JIN...
He taught me a lot,
about how to be happy and how to enjoy life.
I have a younger brother, you know.
I told him to prepare for the future.
Because, even when I was little,
I had this dream,
to be a singer. I started dreaming about it when I was 2nd grader at elementary school.
Oh, singer.
I told my parents that I wanted to have this kind of job.
I was so young that everyone thought it was one of dreams.
But I continued talking about,
so my parents allowed me to become a trainee.
So,
I wanted my brother to start something early.
I used to scold at him.
You should do something...
I said this to my friends, and I was harshly scolded by them.
What does it mean not to work hard?
Not to work hard.
Anyways.
My friends told me that I should not do that to my brother who's still so young.
I was scolded.
I recalled what JIN and other members told me,
I apologized to my brother.
Do whatever you want to do.
Things that you want.
No, no, not in a sarcastic way.
Sorry.
I want you to do what I want to do and to be happy.
You,
can see me, but it's hard for me to see you one by one.
So I want to have conversation with you through this channel.
I'll do everything I want to do, I've been doing it.
It's midnight.
Midnight.
It's too late.
I'll come earlier and
Thank you for loving "Promise".
Thank you for coming to your concert.
Borahae!
Borahae!
V made this pretty word. Borahae.
I said Borahae while doing this gesture,
and I was laughed at by my friends.
They tease me.
Do it again!
They tease me every time they see me.
Borahae.
Good night.
I'll take a shower.
And go to bed.
Have a good dream,
and listen to what your parents tell you,
good night.
I'm going to bed.
Congratulations on your graduation.
"I give born to a baby who's smaller than you", what does this mean?
Thank you for existing.
Thank you mom and dad.
Thank you for giving birth to me.
I'm leaving.
Bye.
What should I do to turn it off?
Okay.
Watch my face until I learn how to turn it off.
I'm leaving.
Oh, here's it.
Good night.
