The idol shared the heartfelt message via his Instagram on September 18. He stated,�

"A lot fans came to see my first North America tour, and I was amazed to notice many parents that came with their children, couples that bought tickets for their anniversary, and some really young fans whom I wondered how they even knew me.�I was surprised to know that there were so many people in different generations that grew up listening to BIGBANG music and waited until now to see my concert.�

I also grew up listening to someone's music and started to build my dream,

and the fact that I had become that SOMEONE to other people was absolutely exciting and overwhelming.

For those people, it made me think that I must become an artist that creates even better music and lives a splendid life."
