“I don't cry that much, and if I do, it's for a really big thing.”

“I'm always in the studio working on music and dancing.”

“I think, in the end, we are all our own individual person.”

“I'm really scared of everything. I'm very, very emotional. I'm extremely soft!”

“I know when I was growing up, I was always lost and just thought I was alone and that I needed to find where I belonged.”

“We're all fighting for the same thin,g and I hope that the fight for equality, the fight to help people get over their anxiety or depression, whatever thing they're going through, I hope that we can all come together more as a community.”

“I definitely went through this whole phase of seeing what my seniors or friends would be wearing and just copying that.”

“Sometimes, when I do certain looks, I don't want the intention to be taken out of context or expressed in the wrong way.”

“In f(x), when I'm doing K-pop, that's cool - that's our concept. But me, as a solo artist, I'm just me. I'm gonna wear my jeans, my Jordans, and I'm just gonna be a little stupid on stage.”

“I'm comfortable with myself now, and I understand how goofy I am, how stupid I can be, how emotional I can be, or how focused I can be.”

“I just love music. Every genre of music: country, rock. I originally first loved punk rock. Pop punk. I don't know, just rock in general. And getting to rap. And now K-pop. Different types of music. I love everything.”

“If I can give something to the next generation, I want to give a message of positivity, to believe in themselves, because I think the world has just a lot of unnecessary stresses to be a certain way, look a certain way, do certain things.”

“I'm from Los Angeles, and we have 24/7 sun pretty much all year round.”

“I worked at a school supply store as a cashier.”

“And what I love about music and art in general is that you can take something so negative or positive - any emotion, no matter how sad or happy - and turn it into art.”

“I love songwriting, and rap is part of my songwriting, but I'm not a rapper.”

“Always SPF! The sun is trying to eat you, pretty much.”

“My Mandarin is slowly getting worse.”

“People assume a lot about me. Some people come up and think I'm hard. I'm actually very, very shy. I'm bubbly in the right circumstances. But I'm a big introvert.”

“I think us humans are just so cruel to each other. We just want to keep judging each other on our looks.”
