In continuation of his lengthy interview with a media reporter, G-Dragon told that he became a close friend with TVXQ members during Big Bang’s activities in Japan.

GD said, “I became close with singers from other management companies. I recently became close with TVXQ members. TVXQ’s Hero Jae-Joong came to us (Big Bang) first while we were both active in Japan. Gradually, we became close to Micky Yoo-Chun and Xiah Joon-Soo along with Hero.”

“I use to be uncomfortable with singers from different management company. But now I ask them to buy me a lunch.  I respect TVXQ for their many years of experience  and hardship in a foreign country. Now I realized that regardless they are SM or JYP, they must have experienced hardship. We (Big Bang) are beginning to open up too and we would like future singers to easily become friends with us.”

Regarding Big Bang’s future activities, G-Dragon stated, “Solo albums of Tae-Yang and TOP will be coming out within recent future. Big Bang’s new album will come out at end of the year. We need to move forward with Big Bang’s next album. Since none of us are under the legal age now, we will probably reveal more maturity in our next album.”
