Se7en finally spoke out after he and YG Ent. were bombarded by accusations from fans and netizens saying that Se7en’s venture into the U.S. was all just for show….or a poor bluff.

He chronicles his life from a young boy to a famous Asian artist who has finally come to the States to fulfill his dream.

The lengthy autobiographical promo clip brings greater admiration for Se7en and a wistful hope that he may reach the elusive American Dream. Good luck and don’t give up, Se7en!

You are my Star
You light my way
you brighten all my nights and make my day

You are my star

then i call on you and you shine through
because you are…because you are my star
