i dont see him as the perfect idol but as the perfect hardworking true to himself human. him getting older is him just getting more comfortable w himself which means hes more open to showing parts of himself that he might of have been more reserved to show before.

he has been the most honest while his selfless persona as much as his rawness within the music he creates show off effortlessly. that man done anything in his power to prosper no matter what. he started as something else & worked effortlessly in excelling what he is today.

him not being much concerned & more relaxed today is consequence of a self work, i believe. Def. is a living breathing proof of that too. he made Def. just outta pure love & passion for music. and he done did that on his own.

Jaebeom had fed us content regardless whether he can perform it live or not or put it on CD.
so him being here still, besides the fact he& #39;s still not given a solo debut even so his unbelievable capabilities or his continuous work on songs

that might have been taken for granted in the past or even today or some that might never be released, must be hard for him but he still here, he still does it. his quiet persona, his voice, his talents, crafts & persistence are what make him perfect.
