Big Bang's Seungri Opens Up About His Romantic History In Anticipation Of His New Solo Album 'Let's Talk About Love'

"Let's Talk About Love" is the name of Big Bang singer Seungri's second EP, scheduled for online release on Monday, and that is exactly what the star did earlier this week in a Facebook post to his fans.

"I'm 24," Seungri wrote. "This is the perfect time to have a good conversation about love. Yes, love. I don't know whether it was love or not, but I've been happy and been hurt too. Perhaps it was love." 

The Big Bang singer also discussed why he wanted to make the love the center of the songs on his new album.

"It wasn't too hard for me to come up with this theme," Seungri wrote.

"The topic that fans and public find most approachable is love. So I wanted to fill my album with songs about love."

The singer enlisted the help of two of his Big Bang bandmates, Taeyang and G-Dragon for one of the songs on "Let's Talk About Love."

"A love song sang by three handsome guys Seungri, G-Dragon and Taeyang," Seungri joked.

"The three names combined may sound a little awkward, but not completely unfamiliar. We were working on our own solo album around the same time, so it was only natural that we bumped into each other at the studio a lot."

According to Seungri, he had always dreamed of something outside of the Big Bang context with some of the other band members.

"I always wanted to work with my team members," he wrote.

"Simply imagining it made me happy. A classy beat and simple musical instruments, those were all I needed. I came up with my part, and they came up with theirs. Ji-young [G-Dragon] produced awesome rap, while Taeyang produced the bridge and great melody."

And the collaboration lived up to the Big Bang singer's expectation.

"I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Although they were my team members, I felt like I was working with some other artists. It was like the two were coloring in the picture I drew. Because these two great artists helped me, I have much confidence in this album. Hopefully this will heighten the expectations of the fans for their upcoming solo albums."

"Let's Talk About Love" will be available in South Korean record stores on Wednesday.
