GOT7's JAY B Shares The Importance Of Honesty And How He Wants To Live The Rest Of 2021

Jul 27, 2021

GOT7’s JAY B recently posed for Dazed Korea’s August issue!

The interviewer asked JAY B if honesty is an important factor for a new beginning, and the idol shared, “I think it’s very important for people who are starting afresh to be honest with themselves. Honesty can sometimes become rudeness, but I’m talking about being honest with oneself and not being rude. Before I joined H1GHR MUSIC, I honestly thought about the seven GOT7 members more than I thought about myself. I’m still thinking about them. I said I’d work hard to keep GOT7 going as a group, so I still think I should take responsibility. Saying it’s a responsibility might seem like too much, but I think it’s right to put it that way.”

Then he added, “But it suddenly occurred to me that I should think more about things for myself. I also thought that I should love myself more. Now, I want to be honest while also being relaxed with myself. At first, I thought GOT7 had to be active no matter what. Now, I think that if we can’t do something even if we try our best, there’s nothing we can do about it. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll feel really sorry to our fans, but I hope they know how hard we tried. Right now, I need to do my best for my album and pay more attention to it.”

When asked what kind of story he wants to make for the rest of 2021, JAY B commented, “People who know me might look at the rest of my year and say, ‘You worked this hard?’. I might not be able to do that, but I need to try to make it happen. What I’m saying is that I’ll be exerting myself. I’m still in a period of adjustment after entering H1GHR MUSIC, so I’ll faithfully spend my time adjusting to it and building a strong base.”
