JHOPE: “i was a middle school senior when i passed the jyp open audition. from there, i auditioned for bighit and i was very lucky, the timing was right.”
IU: “but it’s not all luck! i’ve tried it, you can’t cheat. you must have had skill from a very young age.”

: “i know you’re very good, and i chose iu’s palette because you’re good at drawing out sincerity from an artist. i heard you sing each other’s songs. that requires respect for each other. considering such aspects, i thought wow this is a good program to appear on.”
“My fans were crying ‘IU IU’ at Cannes, and I thought it was a prank cam. How do I have fans in France? I think that was more…more than the red carpet. I think that was quite impressive. Everything that happened today feels like a dream.” —
