00:00I think it was a good choice. I hope it worked out.
00:07Well, the EP is really just an introduction of myself.
00:10My first song was Kilala Kita and then the other songs were reflections of who I was.
00:16Because these songs, there are about six songs.
00:19That was two years in the making, mainly.
00:22It's been one year since I got the label.
00:25And that's a way different me from when I wrote it.
00:29Because I wrote those songs two years ago.
00:32So yeah, an introduction of myself, but mainly myself from two years ago.
00:37There's no sense or no care in terms of what people think of me.
00:44I'm just being really transparent about what I feel.
00:48No matter how childish, how petty those emotions are.
00:53I express it in my writing.
00:55When it comes to music, no matter what you write, it sounds good.
00:59It's like a base.
01:03When it comes to acting, it's like I'm wearing masks.
01:06I'm portraying different characters that people don't really know who I am.
01:11And it comes out in my music.
01:13Because no matter how many press calls or interviews as an actor,
01:18I can't really bring out the essence of who I am, my identity.
01:22When it comes to music, there's no fear in writing what I feel.
01:28Because I've been writing it for a long time.
01:30Actually, we were coming up with a title for so long.
01:34We've been looking for a title for a long time.
01:36At first, it was like, Be Mine, then Love Song, and so on.
01:39Then when we released it late last year,
01:42Tiny, who came from UMG Label, one of my bosses there, suggested,
01:48he said, what if Love Song?
01:52So we have our title.
01:54Technically, I wrote it three years ago, I think.
01:58That song, yeah, yeah.
01:59I didn't really plan to release it officially to be a music artist.
02:03I just wrote it at the time when it was all happening.
02:08So, Love Song.
02:09The song is a past tense.
02:11Because I'm in a different state of my life now.
02:14I'm in a different state of my mindset.
02:17It's speechless.
02:18It's not expressive or anything like that.
02:23But I think it was heard.
02:25I hope it worked.
02:26It was a monthly gift at the time.
02:28So, I gave the song to the sky.
02:31Maybe it was heard.
