[EPN Enpinow reporter Go Nari] The YouTube channel Jipdaesung released a video on the 15th titled \”Mischief Faces — Red Red Performance, Jihoon — Green Green.\”

Singer Rain appeared as a guest and traded candid, good‑humored banter with Daesung.

Reflecting on Big Bang’s early days, Rain remembered when Yang Hyun‑suk made the introductions. \”Back then, every idol group performed tightly synchronized choreography,\” he said. \”When I saw Big Bang’s stage, I thought, ‘Can you really be that free?’\”

Daesung explained that while the group perfects precise formations in rehearsal, their trademark onstage approach is to honor each member’s individual style and feel.

The conversation turned to Daesung’s appearance at Coachella. Rain said he couldn’t clearly recall who else was on the bill, but he distinctly remembered Daesung performing a trot song — and how surprising that felt.

Daesung said he hadn’t expected the performance to become such a talking point. Rain recalled being stunned when a Korean greeting — \”Hello, I’m Daesung\” — flashed on a massive LED screen more than 10 meters across in the middle of the LA desert.

\”On a stage like that, you’d expect an English greeting,\” Rain said. \”Seeing large Korean subtitles made me proud.\” Daesung added that the audience seemed taken aback when the Korean text appeared.

Noting Daesung’s expression onstage, Rain said, \”You looked like you were having the best time.\” Daesung replied, \”There’s a special thrill every time we prepare a set that subverts expectations.\”

Playfully referring to Daesung’s moment, Rain said he hopes to someday show the subtitle \”Hello, I’m Bi (Jung Ji‑hoon)\” onstage, drawing laughter from the audience.

To close, Rain joked that YouTube’s algorithm keeps recommending Daesung’s videos to him. \”Every time I open YouTube, your videos keep popping up — it’s a little awkward,\” he said, prompting more laughter.
