"Crosswalk" was the first song he wrote the lyrics to since making his debut.  Regarding this, he said, "'Crosswalk' was not a song that I created from the get-go as the title [track], rather it became the title track through the agency family's unanimous [vote], so I did feel burdened, but I was also happy.  J.Y. Park personally called me and complimented me.  I think the saddest and most regrettable part of dating is when the other person's love cools and you feel that.  I wanted to try expressing through the lyrics the feeling of uneasiness about how long the love can last."

Since his debut was eight years ago, he was asked how he felt about there being more juniors than seniors now.  "I no longer concern myself with the title of being an idol," he simply replied.  "You could call this a transformation, too.  See, I was very sad when I was a rookie.  I wanted to always appear sparkling and pretty, but now, if anything, I want to hear more that I'm an artist than an idol."

As talented as you are, the title "idol" tends to stick, I'm afraid.  Just keep at it!
