211029 KAI Interview With ELLE

Q: The phrase of “Kai does everything”, which was the title of the first video on your personal YouTube (content) “KAIst” is become a hot topic these days. How does it feel to accept and start a new job?

: Actually, I can just rest. I can just take care of myself and work on music freely. But the biggest feeling of the fans is that when they turn on the TV, they can see me a lot. I also started YouTube because I thought I need to do something to the fans. Really, that’s 90% of my heart.

Q: That’s much higher percentage than I expected (laugh)

: I haven’t been able to meet various people for a while since my debut. I get a lot of feeling that “those people are actually live like that” through appearing in variety shows. Since I’m mostly at home, on the day of the recording, I say it to myself “today is the day I meet people” and I enjoy it. When I appeared in “Honeymoon Tavern”, my mother was more excited. She is a longtime fan of Kim Heesun noona.

Q: When dealing with people, you look natural and confident. Are there any attitudes or methods you have developed over the years?

: I don’t have an attitude that I wish to be seen in any way. However, there is something I realized as the range of relationships I have widened compared to the narrow relationships that I had when I was young. There is also synergy that comes from returning as much as I do and working happily with each other.

Q: There was also a lot of news related to fashion, such as Kai Gucci Collection and Seoul Fashion Week ambassador. Channel Full Moon’s “The Devil Wears Jungnam Season2” must have been more enjoyable in that, it was the interface between fashion and entertainment.

: Thanks to this, I developed an interest in vintage fashion. If I think about it, there are some clothes I have been wearing for over 10 years, it makes me wonder why I have a high barrier to my mind. I also bought vintage furniture. As I stayed at home for a long time, I naturally drew attention to furniture. It’s good to see traces of time in the furniture.

Q: I guess the landscape inside the modern house shown in “I Live Alone” has changed a bit.

: These days, I’m decorating a veranda that wasn’t shown on the TV. I saw the prefabricated flooring and spread it by myself, and filled the space with colorful and pretty vintage furniture. It’s the only space with colored furniture.

Q: For artists, the body is also a tool for expression. Self-management isn’t just about external things, but Kai is especially good at it. What kind of motivation or satisfaction do you have?

: It could be professionalism, or it could be a longtime habit. It’s easier if you have an exact goal, like I hope I have a lot of muscle this time, I want myself to look like this when I do this dance. In that sense, this year was not a year that I was strict with myself. During that time, food has developed a lot. Were these ingredients originally included? Why is the taste of tteokbokki different from the tteokbokki I’ve eaten before? It’s a whole new world (laughs). Now, I have to seriously control my diet again. Because I have the next goal.

Q: It’s already been nearly 10 months since your first solo album “KAI” came out. Will there be a side you can finally see?

: I personally thought about a lot of things after the album promotion. I looked back on myself. As those thoughts continue, 2021 feels like a special year for Kim Jongin. I think I can develop more if I organize it well. As a singer and a human being.

Q: It was good to hear various stories of Kai as an artist through the video of “Film: Kai”, which contains the mood of the six songs in the album and related interviews. Do you still have a lot you want to express?

: A lot. There are still a lot. Anyway, what I always want to do is reflecting a story. Whether it’s someone else’s story or mine.

Q: It was completely filled with Kai’s voice without a featuring artist. What emotions do you want to touch through your music?

: The fact that there are no featuring is probably the same for the next album. What I learned while working as a singer for nearly 10 years is that even if I say “This is what I think. Feel it” in the end, interpretation is up to each other. I want to raise people’s various interpretations and questions. In fact, from my point of view, I already have primary satisfaction just by putting my story into it.

Q: Are you afraid that the day will come when you feel like you will no longer have anything you want to express?

: There was a time when my body was so tired and exhausted that I had no particular motivation. In fact even until now, I’m still like, “What else can I do? What am I?” I keep thinking like that. I think those thoughts will naturally be reflected in the next album.

Q: Even though I am like the way I see myself, but we also recognize our existence through the eyes of others. What do you think of finding yourself that way?

: In the past, I tried very hard to understand that mind. But these days, I don’t really care. As I care about how I look, even a small mistake can cause a lot of stress, and it eventually caught my ankle. No matter how other people see me, in the end, I am the person in charge, so I have a stronger mindset than before to do what I want to do well.

Q: You said, “My fans have high standards.” I’m also curious about Kai’s fans’ reactions to that expression.

: I think it was a reaction like, “Of course.” I didn’t mean, “You guys who like me, who are so great, have high standards.” However, I think fans who like me have different perspectives and high expectations. I was interested in people’s interpretations because I actually felt the reactions of the fans during the “Overdose” activity. It was a performance and concept that could be difficult, but I thought it was great that people liked it at the time.

Q: It is interesting that the EXO members have different genres for their solo activities.

: I also thought of that while looking at D.O. hyung’s first album, which was released most recently. It’s so good when I hear other members’ songs, but I also think I would never have chosen the song as my solo song, the same goes for the opposite case. I think it’s really fun and good to see that each one’s colors come out clearly even after we’ve been together for a long time with EXO.

Q: It’s the time to be focused on dancing. Wouldn’t it be nice to see this trend as Kai, who has always expressed his gratitude for the roles of dancers?

: People’s interest in dance has always existed.However, as the interest has become more prominent, I would recommend you to dance by yourself. I started dancing as well, but I ended up dancing for nearly 20 years. If you try to go to the end with greed, it takes a lot of effort, but I don’t think there’s a big difference if you starting by liking it, whether it’s a job or a hobby. First of all, I hope you start with a meaning to have fun.

Q: Gucci Chairman Marco Bizzarri described you as “very unique and modern”. Do you agree?

: I’ve never thought I was such a person. However, I am a person who lives in the present. After seeing that aspect, a few encounters, and my performances, wouldn’t it be that I felt my own uniqueness?

Q: Is there a starting point in life that Kai, who lives in the present, often talks about and looks back on?

: No, I don’t have. Actually, I may not think about it next year about what I’m thinking this year. When I thought about writing a diary, my sister said she doesn’t write it, because if she writes it, she’ll keeps looking back. It sympathized me. I’m trying to focus on the emotions and situations in every moment.

Q: “I feel Gucci” means “I feel good right now”. What is the moment you felt “Gucci” today?

: Actually, my condition was really bad. I felt that I was a little weak but it seemed to be reflected in the photo, so I was happy inside again (laughs). I felt good at this moment when we were talking, and I liked the video interview that I did first. I was able to think about how the fans sent the questions.

Q: The relationship between fans and artists changes systematicly, right?

: At the beginning of our debut, I don’t know what fans mean. To get my job to be done fast, I say “thanks” and “thank you” but at the time my heart was cluttered, but now I know exactly how to be thankful for and say it to whom. In the process of giving and receiving, we develop together. Just as the fans think of me and act, I have become a person who thinks and acts for someone else.

Q: Do you believe in the existence of soulmates? Do you have the belief or expectation that “I will find someone who fully understands me”?

: Wouldn’t it be nice to believe that there is? I don’t think we know each other just by looking at each other’s eyes. You have to say it to know. In the end, it would be myself who knows the best about me. Nevertheless, it’s enough to have someone who can express my feelings and someone who feels comfortable when talking.

Q: Kai, who is always received a lot of questions, do you have a story you would like to share more with people?

: Since I tend to speak casually during interviews, I can feel my choice and mindset at that moment when I look at the previous interviews. I can see some trajectories. We talked a lot about happiness for a while. At first, “I want to be happy,” and then “I need effort to be happy,” and then “So I’m trying to relieve what makes me unhappy,” and I thought, “This thought made me who I am today,” and these days, was it best to relieve it? What would it have been like if you ran into that situation? It’s like biting your own tail. Maybe this is like a diary to me (laughs)?

Q: I wish you could stay like that today.

: I will turn twenty-nine next year. As we are approaching the 10th anniversary of our debut, I think I have more thoughts. This may sound funny, but everyone lives because they are born. However, if possible, I want to live a fun and happy life. I hope you see the world warmly and live a life full of love. I live like that these days.

211027 OP Blog Update From Meeting Kyungsoo

도경수 오신날

If I could express today in one word is the BEST. I was going to work and suddenly uh?? Doh Kyungsoo?? It’s really the real Doh Kyungsoo.. a couple days ago I thought that I hope Doh Kyungsoo come here just once hahahaha and today he’s really come. But I never believed it until I saw it with my own eyes, but I become sure that it’s actually Doh Kyungsoo after I saw the company he came with..☺ How long was that 20 minutes has passed? As I kept checking, Kyungsoo passed in front of my eyes. Wah~ I can’t say anything else. Really it was the real EXO’s Doh Kyungsoo that I like. I was like no way but really those people who came with Doh Kyungsoo are really amazing people, but I can’t see anyone else but Doh Kyungsoo.. After Doh Kyungsoo passed by, I waited for him to come back. Please come back here againㅠㅠ I don’t know what was I thinking while I work. Is it three hours? It’s about 2 hours 40 minutes until he passed by again. I was like no way, but he really didn’t come to the restaurant. At times like this, I really hate Corona, I really hate winterㅡㅡ I explained everything and bragged to the chief and aunty about this person who appeared on the movie and drama from the morning. When I’m fluttering alone, he just passes in front of me. I thought I understood now why and how to use the expression that time to stops. Wah.. there were only compliments for real. He doesn’t have much time so I packed a bunch of drinks and gave it right away, and I barely talked to him and asked for an autograph. He gladly accepted it and it makes me scream inside like 100 times. My hands were shaking while I asked for his sign on my phonecase. My introverted personality doesn’t work in front of Doh Kyungsoo. I think this will be the most memorable day of the year. The phone case he signed and the pen he used to sign I’ll keep it as a family treasure forever… btw guys, I didn’t shake my hand. It just touched slightly…

211018 Lyricist Jo Yoonkyung Mentioned Kyungsoo on Her Recent Interview

Q: In D.O.’s recently released solo album, I feel like I can read another feeling. It’s been a while since I’ve been comforted by the beautiful literary lyrics. It felt like I saw the next champion of a lyricist named Jo Yunkyung.

A: I don’t think I’m a lyricist with a clear signature. However, it is true that he likes to build up emotions step by step in beautiful letters and pronunciations. I thought it would be nice if D.O.’s new album was a story told by actor D.O., not EXO’s D.O. or idol D.O. I think actor D.O. is like a boy to me, he’s not an adult yet, but I like his face who has a strong heart that I could feel it. I thought about it for a long time because I wanted to tell a warm story told by such a person, a story with sympathy. I wrote “Dad” while recalling a picture of the relationship between a father and a son. Far but close, hate but look similar. In “It’s Love”, I wanted to talk about the love of people in their twenties and thirties. The song starts like this. “Giving love is like a luxury, and receiving it is far more difficult.” It is not a love that comes true, but a love that hesitates, a feeling of giving up on a relationship. I think that feeling is the shape of love that we can empathize with.

[TRANS] Big Issue magazine October Issue about Doh Kyungsoo.

The Magnitude of Gravity - About Doh Kyungsoo

He was born with a fate that deserves attention. When I look at Doh Kyungsoo, I feel that way. My first impression for him as EXO member D.O. was, “There is idol like that in the world…” The most famous episode about D.O. at the time of EXO’s debut was when he was so nervous when introducing his first debut stage MAMA that he changed “elegant orchestra” with a shaky pupil and said “su… superior orchestra”. Whenever the incident –which made fans laugh out loud – was mentioned, he seriously blamed himself for not doing well in what he should have done well. If you were looking at D.O., you might be thinking “why did you decide to become a celebrity in the first place?” who was standing behind the members and quietly reading the situation rather than doing anything. I was also curious about how SM Entertainment prepared an idol group. However, when he was given the opportunity to sing alone on a radio program, he sang without hesitation with a voice that we had never heard of among idol singers. What is it? A criminal like me couldn’t understand why a person with such charm and talents wouldn’t showing off in front of people. So, D.O. was a character who was always concerned about where he was and what he was doing even though he didn’t have the energetic and naughtiness of an idol. But when a smile suddenly spreads across D.O.’s face, I feel so relieved. A charm that makes viewers care even if he doesn’t do anything noticeable, we call this a starline.

From the first moment, he’s perfect.

Now is the age of idol-turned actors will be judged strictly by the public. But when D.O. first started acting. Even in the case of an idol group that is managed by a large agency like EXO and receives enthusiastic support from teenagers, it was a time when they had to go through a harsher gateway. However, D.O.’s unique bluntness became his own personality when he became actor Doh Kyungsoo. He was a rookie actor born with a self-deprecating atmosphere who acts as Kangwoo, who reflects the trauma of childhood domestic violence of Jang Jaeyeol (Jo Insung) in the drama “It’s Okay, That’s Love”. He’s strained as if he’s about to collapse, but he doesn’t show it easily, he has a face that makes you want to know what’s inside that box. So, Doh Kyungsoo was able to become a complete actor from the first moment in front of the camera. Since then, many people are aware of Doh Kyungsoo’s journey. In particular, as the face of a boy who faced the world he would not have known yet, he was the perfect fit as Taeyoung of the movie “Cart” is precocious enough to work part-time at a convenience store instead of putting a burden on her mother (Yeom Jeongah), who goes on strike against unfair dismissal. Taejeong, who works part-time in a DVD room to pay off student loans in “Room No.7”, also gets involved in drug crimes when he doesn’t get a salary from the boss (Shin Hakyun) and suffers from hardships. On the other hand, a psychopathic criminal who lacks empathy in “Remember You”, a country boy passing through his first love in “Pure Love”, a judo athlete who lost his sight in “My Annoying Brother”, Won Dongyeon, a soldier who full of concerned in the “Along with the Gods” series. On the other hand, he proved his flexible learning ability as a new actor, crossing the comedy unique of director Lee Byunghun in the web drama “Be Positive”. Therefore, the character variation of “100 Days My Prince,” who lost his memory as a cold crown prince and became a “Useless Man” who was criticized not being able to cut trees, gained convincing from many people and achieved great success (14.4% highest ratings, 4th highest TVN drama ratings at the time of airing). “Swing Kids”, his first one-top leading masterpiece, was a work that had to be played with his gestures and the pure passion that was only possible in his youth. Since he is a talented singer in dancing and singing, Roh Kisoo of Swing Kids shows that he is an unrivaled competitiveness that cannot be replaced by anyone else. (In addition I will always looking forward to singer D.O.’s future filmography who surprised a lot of people with his singing ability on his early debut day).

Kyungsoo’s Eyes

Doh Kyungsoo is an actor with eyes like no matter how old he gets, his boyishness will not completely vanished. However, his eyes that don’t break easily and his tightly closed lips gave him a surprisingly precocious feeling, so he always looked more mature than his peers, even at his age when he was actually close to a boy. He is an actor who is found to be unexpected the more he opens himself to various characters and acts, he updates the freshness that exceeds the primary surprise that the top idol group members are more stable than expected. An actor born with a star quality, unique character, and talent has been born. After serving in the military, Doh Kyungsoo’s fans say that he has changed a lot. In fact, people who have met him through interviews or worked with him say that he is the same as he used to be, but showing a more active image in communication with fans or releasing a solo album filled with only his own voice is definitely raises expectations for celebrity Doh Kyungsoo’s flexible activities. His first acting comeback after being discharged from military service is director Kim Yonghwa’s blockbuster sci-fi movie “The Moon”. Doh Kyungsoo plays the same situation as Matt Damon in “The Martian”, an astronaut who is left alone in space by an accidental accident waiting for rescue. His character was inspired by Johnny Kim, a Korean-American who became the first NASA astronaut and was in charge of the Artemis project, a lunar and Mars exploration project. Which resembles Doh Kyungsoo’s strong image. Rumor has it that Doh Kyungsoo, who is good at using his body, is filming on the filming site, considering the movement according to gravity of the earth, the gravity of the moon, and the zero gravity conditions. (Coincidentally, his superpower in “EXO Planet” is “Power/Force”. In other words, it is natural that he can do well in works such as “The Moon” when it comes to gravity.)

Another next project is a remake of the Taiwanese film “Secret”, starring Jay Chou. A youth romance with a time travel fantasy is also a project in which his teamwork with the opposite actor is important, a high-level piano performance is required, and above all, comparison with the original works is also a burden. Doh Kyungsoo will evolve once more when a precocious boy is old enough to be in charge of the nation’s space project, and a fresh face that will still suit him in a school uniform is added with dense emotions. Doh Kyungsoo is an actor who makes viewers concerned and always wonders what kind of project he will have as he has done so far.

Google fixes Translate tool after accusations of sexism

“Flawed algorithms can amplify biases through feedback loops,” professors James Zou and Londa Schiebinger wrote in a paper titled “AI can be sexist and racist - it’s time to make it fair.” “Each time a translation program defaults to ‘he said,’ it increases the relative frequency of the masculine pronoun on the web - potentially reversing hard-won advances toward equality.”

Can AI be sexist? Yes, it can be as sexist as people who created it and as sexist as the corpora it learns from.
