Seungri's Diary Updates from Big Bang's Japanese Mobile Site:
JULY 3: Not bad. It's alright. Today, at Budokan, we did a fan event. The stage was 360 degrees so my head hurt a bit. But, because the fans are there wherever we look, I'm so happy^^
The other BIGBANG brothers are going back to Korea. I'll be sad. There's nothing I can do. This is my destiny. I'm staying alone in Japan. So please take care of Seungri!!

- Seung-chan
JULY 5: Today, too, after eating beef rice bowl, let's work hard!

JULY 6: "Rich Man, Poor Woman"
*Rich Man, Poor Woman is a Japanese drama starring Oguri Shun



JULY 7: Yesterday I went to visit everyone on set that stars in GTO, a FujiTV drama that’s on every Tuesday at 10PM.
It was weird to look “bad”... so I’m quite sorry about that but I’m really looking forward to it!! Akira-san and Miori-san were both so nice to me T_T Why are all my friends in Japan so friendly... I want to cry again.
Akira-san, Miori-chan, sorry to keep you waiting, but it’s all good right? Since it’s all for good fun ^^
You have to watch it okay! ON AIR! Remember to check it!

JULY 9: I look cool today, right? I had 9 magazine interviews. I talked a lot and did my best to speak Japanese! I got tired a bit.. I'm getting sleepy.. getting sleepy.. getting sleepy zzzzzzzzzzz

From Asia-Mumo's Twitter where he had an interview:

From Yuki Yamada's (actor in GTO) Blog:

Hello~ Today, I had GTO drama shooting.. and I worked hard.
During Star Festival (celebrated July 7 in Japan), they say wishes come true? Is it because of the Star Festival?
[Omitted info not related to BIGBANG]
I better explain the photo now. If not, I'll be in trouble.
Emm~ I've been a big fan of BIGBANG since their Korean debut. This is a miracle photo taken with Seungri-san. (cry) Why are we both in uniforms?
Oh firstly.. Star Festival, thank you☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ Not for Ori Hime, but for letting me meet Seungri-san (〉_〈)
It looked like Seungri-san came to the set to make a report.. and it seemed like I disturbed him instead.
Also, Seungri-san is really a kind person. Thank you so much. I'm going to liven up GTO too (T^T)
Til here. Today, too, let's belive in our own power.
Fantastic baby( ̄o ̄)/
From Sakigake's (TV Show where Seungri is a guest reporter) blog:
Update #1: Hello! Update in the middle of the night again. On next week's Sakigake! Ongaku Banzuke Eight, BIGBANG's VI will make a solo appearance.
Everyone may already know this from his blog . This will mark VI's first TV work! This is good news for Sakigake and all the staff members are really thankful.
VI is a really friendly and nice guy. This time, he will introduce Fuji TV's new summer drama so he went to the shooting location of 'Rich Man, Poor Woman'. And.. he interviewed Oguri Shun!!
It seemed like he was a bit nervous but did his everything up to the point of "It's possible because it's VI!" His Japanese is really good and I'm amazed how he can read the script in hiragana (Japanese characters) very well.
This is the photo. A nice one..

Update #2: Today, we start with a photo. He came again!! It's VI!

This time, he visited the set of GTO. He went to the shooting scene and did an interview. They are Akira and Takimoto Miori.
Pay attention to VI's clothes. Actually, this is the exact uniform the student in the drama wears. As requested by VI, the interview was done wearing the uniform.
The interview was a relaxed one and full of laughter from start to finish. VI was really in a good condition.
From Sense Magazine blog:

V.I of the popular group BIGBANG visited the office!
He told us, “SENSE is an incredibly famous magazine. I really love it!”
But he didn’t seem to be too happy saying it (laugh)
Nah, we’re just kidding. We’re absolute grateful for that.
The full details will be in the August issue
Everyone, please look forward to it.

Date: 2012-07-10 05:16 pm (UTC)Anyway, I'm sure he's so happy doing all of this solo work. He really is the me member in BB that relates to Japanese pop culture and entertainment industry best. So, he's already set up a post-BB life in SK and it looks like he's working on one in JPN, alright now VI! Get it!

Date: 2012-07-10 09:37 pm (UTC)I just love how much of a troll and try hard he is and I hear stories about him being greasy/smarmy but he doesn't care.
Plus he seems to have a good business mind.

Date: 2012-07-10 09:56 pm (UTC)but i enjoy how much of a goddamn troll he is to everyone in Big Bang. like yolleh said below, he always comes across as being really smarmy when it comes to trying to get with girls, but i also think it's hilarious that he uses the fact that he's friends with TOP and GD rather than being who he is as a way to get girls.
plus, i can't help but appreciate the balls of anyone who puts out a song like Strong Baby when they're 19.
