“I think JYP adores his musicians so much that he wants to teach them from A to Z. I’m incapable of doing that…I never stayed longer than 5 minutes at BIGBANG and 2NE1’s recording sessions. I never told Taeyang how to sing, I have no qualifications to do such thing when he’s a better singer than me.”

“[On his image at KPOPSTAR] It’s true that I told him (JYP) to explain comfortably in detail, I said I would be the bad cop. But I became a father recently, and everything has changed since then. It seemed like the contestants were my own children.”

KPOPSTAR’s Lee Seunghoon, “YG Entertainment….a very mystical place”

‘K-Pop Star‘ contestant Lee Seung Hoon participated in an interview in which he compared Korea’s “big three” agencies (SM, YG, and JYP Entertainments) to movie categories.

Lee Seung Hoon stated, “At first, I thought that I wouldn’t fit well with SM but after experiencing training under them, I realized it really fits well with me. So I would call it a movie with an unexpected turn of events.”

“YG is a company I really admire and after experiencing life at the company, I found it to be a very mystical place, which is why I would compare it to a ‘Sci-Fi fantasy movie.’ (*NOTE: Seunghoon spent most of his training under YG during the competition)

“JYP’s warm atmosphere gave me strength when I was going through my most difficult time, so I would call it a ‘family movie.’”

When asked about the most memorable advice he had received on the show, Lee Seung Hoon recalled,“Judge J.Y. Park said during my ‘I Am the Best‘ performance that I should feel the song in my heart first and then create ideas, but I came up with my ideas first and then followed with my heart. I realized then that my performances should be created out of sincerity.”

In related news, Lee Seung Hoon will appear at the ‘Youth Festival‘ in Yeouido, Seoul on the 19th.
