2007: Debut in Japan with his single album “Kokoro“ (=Heart)
2007: 1st career as actor in BOF
He participated in DATV’s charity event, “Smile Project” which many top stars from Asia joined.
Interview:
This charity event is to contribute to the disadvantaged children in Asia. It is just a small project but it will give hope for them. I hope that there will be more and more projects with good objectives like this in future. I would like to have another opportunities to join.
Question: What is your impression of Tokyo Dome?
Leader: It was an honor to be on such a huge stage of Tokyo Dome. I have been dreaming of performance at Tokyo Dome, and therefore, my dream came true.
I would like to do my best so that I will be able to have an exclusive concert there in the future. (While he was talking about his dream about Tokyo Dome, his eyes sparkled)
**Please Be Nice To Me performance **
Question: What kind of impression about Japanese fans do you have?
Leader: I am impressed that they became so passionate. When we had a Concert in Japan, they just quietly applauded. But with growing popularity of Kpop here in Japan, they are now passionate as much as Koreans. As I felt such drastic change directly, I was able to enjoy the performance by myself. (*Many Japanese fans screamed “Leader!” each time he was on a stage. Actually, the majority of lightsticks was green!)
Question: What made you to decide to join this project ?
Leader: I have been recently interested in charity event and I happened to hear about Tokyo Dome charity event. For me, it was a good opportunity as I have been dreaming of stage at Dome.

I would like to follow YongJoon-hyung who have implementing many charity events, and will work harder so that I will be able to have some events by my name in the future. It will be nice if I could have an event to invite not only Asian but also world-wide artists there.
Question: Any episode with Bae Yong Joon-ssi ?
Leader: He told me in joke that he would like to challenge for singing and dancing the next year. I said that I would help him then as a senior in singing (laugh). In 2011, I am going to release solo albums, I would like to show you much powerful perfful and various performance.

The real Indian curry use many spices, which are not palatable to Koreans.
We, Koreans rather like Japanese curry.

Leader: Singing a song at stage as well as acting, and learning about acting.
I enjoy all of this and feel happy. Happiness is not something special.
If I do something I like, I feel happy. Also, in order to achieve my goal,
I work hard together with my fellows, and that’s the moment I feel happiness.

I am going to release my first solo album in May or June which includes a Japanese title song. Please give it your support. After promotion activities of the solo album, I have a plan to act again.
Question: Message for Japanese fans, please!
Leader: I will continue to work hard as singer and actor. I appreciate your support. Also, I can assure you much expectation for the first solo album. Thank you!
