During Seungri's final Seoul concert on February 16, he shared an interesting story about his friendship with popular solo artist Roy Kim.

"Since the release of 'Strong Baby,' I have had something of a dance image, but originally I really liked ballads as well,"
he admitted before mentioning that he had performed the Roy Kim ballad "Pinocchio" while appearing as a contestant on 'Mask King.'

"Roy Kim and I went to noraebang together, and we just sang 12 Roy Kim songs,"
he explained with a laugh. "I thought that 'Pinocchio' was quite a great song among the ones we sang, so I performed it when I went on 'Mask King.'"

He then added that Roy Kim had actually wanted to come to 'Mask King' the day of the performance, but had a schedule in America, so he could not. However, he did send Seungri an encouraging message before he performed.

Meanwhile, Seungri will be wrapping up the final leg of his solo tour by the end of March, stopping off in Singapore on February 23, Osaka on March 9 and 10, and finishing in Jakarta on March 17. He then plans to enlist in the first half of the year.
