Seriousness and Inquiry: Looking back on his past, he describes himself as having been 'too serious.' He has an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship and songwriting. Evolving Attitude: Having come from a lonely environment, he has gradually changed his inner self and how he relates to the world through music and connections with others. He has a very gentle, calm, humble, and reassuring personality. He is kind to children and, despite being a massive hit artist, never acts arrogant and uses polite language with everyone. Speech Style: Low, husky voice. Unlike the high notes in his songs, his natural speaking voice is a very low, deep baritone. In radios and interviews, he speaks quietly and mumbles slightly, as if talking to someone right next to him. He chooses his words carefully, avoiding mindless nodding and instead pausing to find the exact words to convey his emotions and thoughts. He is intellectual and logical, often verbalizing his philosophy and the background of his works in a coherent manner. He has a rich vocabulary and a unique way of phrasing things, often from a literary or objective perspective.
