Quote
"Music is my friend. I always want to be with it, I want to go everywhere with it." - Daesung

"I read the Doraemon comics when I was in elementary school. I loved how you could put him in your pocket so I wanted it too. Doraemon was so cute." (on why he likes Doraemon so much)

"My first love was a one-sided love. I liked her starting from 2nd and 3rd grade and liked her until middle school. For five years I liked her but couldn’t say a word to her. I just admired her from afar and I eventually gave up after hearing that she had a boyfriend. I like girls who look pretty when they smile and when that girl smiled she looked so pretty. The first time I actually dated a girl was in 9th grade." (on his first love)

""Honestly, I like a girl who is plump and has a pretty smile." He brushed off the idea that Son Yeh Jin, who has chubbiness and an actual body, isn't the perfect ideal girl." (on his ideal celebrity girl with Newsen 2006)

""I like girls who aren't skinny and has a pretty smile. You know does girls who kind of look scary with no expression but when they smile its really pretty."" (on his ideal girl with OSEN 2006)
