A: Growing up I was a really big fan of anime and manga. I'd always seen really cool pictures of Japan. Thanks to my career, I've been able to go to Japan and I've been able to look around. Also, I had the opportunity to go to Singapore right after my debut and I want to go back. But even before my debut, I went to India for about a month. India is one of my favorite places to ever go to. I've had the opportunity to go to so many wonderful places thanks to the career that I'm pursuing.

Q: Some people love traveling for work in the beginning and then grow tired of it. How about you?

A: No, I'm enthusiastic about it. I’m a Sagittarius and we want to roam and travel the world. So any opportunity I get to go, even if it’s to a different part of Korea, I want to go. I went to Pohang one time and saw different facets of the country. I like to travel.

Q: Where have you not been to that’s on your bucket list?

A: I really want to do a tour of South America, if at all possible, because the K-pop scene is so huge down there. And I feel like it's almost largely ignored. I feel like (countries like) Brazil and Argentina have big K-pop fans there. Why not give them some performances? It just sounds really fun.
