Akdong Musician’s Lee Soo Hyun introduced Seungri as their agency’s busiest singer and Seungri replied, “I do not wait for work. I bring work. The reason why I came on today is because I spoke with the manager for the first time in a while and asked what Soo Hyun was up to. He said she’s a DJ and I couldn’t just sit still. I asked if I should send flowers and he said to appear on it, so I came. I’ll try to raise the trending search.”

On his upcoming solo album, Seungri said, “It will be released in the beginning of July. BLACKPINK’s album is finally coming on June 15. Will I hit a home run or a double play this year at YG? If I hit a double play, I won’t be able to release an album for a while. The album is 98 percent ready.”

The BIGBANG member also hinted at the album concept. He said, “They call me ‘Seung-stby,’ but if you listen to my unique energy, power, and music, then you’ll become energized. I think I’ll be able to give energy to many people. It’s full of songs that will help this hot summer burn up.”

He continued, “I want to work hard on my solo promotions so that fans won’t feel the vacancy of BIGBANG. I don’t know about my solo promotions, but I want to quickly do team promotions. But I’m still going to do well this time.”

KBS CoolFM’s “Soo Hyun’s Raise the Volume” airs every night at 8 p.m. KST.

After the two enjoyed a pool party, they went to have dinner together. Park Soo Hong was impressed by the fancy dinner and said to Seungri, “You’re really a celebrity.” Seungri replied, “If you’re having fun, I’m also having fun. You know Yang Hyun Suk, he was born in 1969. You don’t look like you were born in 1970. You look so much younger.”

Park Soo Hong then suggested, “I’ll take care of the money and the time, let’s hang out together.” Seungri agreed, saying, “Do you have a friend who’s my age? The trend is to have friends of all ages.”

After Park Soo Hong complimented Seungri that he had a lot to learn from him despite Seungri’s younger age, the two began to share honest stories about themselves. When Seungri asked Park Soo Hong what he got from his five years of clubbing, Park Soo Hong answered, “Fleeting relationships.”

Seungri revealed why he enjoyed spending time with foreign friends. He began, “Things like enjoying parties abroad and being with friends from abroad, I think it all began when BIGBANG started going on world tours.”

“Actually, they’re all my friends, but these friends don’t know how famous I am,” Seungri continued. “They just think I have a lot of followers on social media. They don’t even know how I got famous; they’re simply not interested. They’re busy living their own lives and enjoying themselves. While doing so they met me, and they liked how this person called Seungri has good energy, how he’s fun to be with, and that’s all.”

Seungri concluded, “So when I’m with my foreign friends like this, I really feel free. I feel myself become free.”

“My Ugly Duckling” airs every Sunday at 9:05 p.m. KST. Check out the latest episode below!
