When asked about his thoughts regarding YG Entertainment’s future as a businessman, the singer-entrepreneur answered, “I’m a person who has loyalty. I have never once thought about leaving YG and I like YG.”

He continued, “I’m an agency singer who loves YG. You asked me about YG’s future and YG has diverse businesses in food, cosmetics, sports, and more. I think the center of all of these businesses is Hallyu and I think there is great value in the globalization of Hallyu.”

Seungri concluded, “YG hasn’t revealed it yet, but the junior singers to follow in the steps of WINNER, iKON, and BLACKPINK are really diverse and impressive. You can say that the future I foresee for YG is very bright.”
