Jiyong is the vocalist/rapper of the group, alongside T.O.P. He is a widely-accepted and talented songwriter, having won the ‘Songwriter Award’ in 2007 from MKMF. Jiyong has taken on an active role of composing songs for Big Bang, such as their hit song 'Haru Haru'.
He was originally supposed to debut as a child hip-hop artist in hope of gaining fame, popularity, and success like Lil' Bow Wow and Lil' Romeo did in the states. However he was unable to release an album and was limited to only appearing in YG artists’ albums. On January 2001, Jiyong debuted on the album, “Daehanmingook Hip-Hop Flex” as a rapper. He was later recruited with TaeYang (태양) to act in JinuSean’s MV as their minis, which happened on February of the same year.
Afterward he began to train for his planned debut as the hip-hop group, GDYB, with Tae Yang. During his training, he was already featured on songs and appearing in MVs by Perry, Se7en, JinuSean, Masta Wu, Wheesung, YG Family, Gummy, Swi.T, and Lexy. GDYB was allowed to release 2 songs for YG Family’s second album and appear alongside Se7en for the World Cup, but they, unfortunately, were never able to release an album nor debut. In 2004, both Tae Yang and Jiyong were listed as YG’s fresh, new faces and was scheduled that year. However, those plans were quickly cancelled by Hyun Suk, who had planned on forming a 4-6 member group. It wasn't until 2 years later, in 2006 YG Entertainment Inc. stated that Big Bang was finally able to announce their official debut. All the members of Big Bang are G-Dragon, T.O.P, Taeyang, Seungri, and Daesung.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every time I come close to you
(Every time I'm feeling you)
Feel like I'm gonna dream every time
(I get butterfly, check it)
무심코 하늘을 봐 like
네 웃는 모습을 닮아
내 하룻속 너랑 나 로맨틱한 이 drama
날 울고 웃게 하죠 no no no
잠들지 못하겠는데 (네 이름을 불러보는데)
난 수줍은 듯 고개를 돌리고 (no matter what)
이렇게 좋아하는데
좀처럼 걸음을 뗄수가 없어
(You don't know how much I love you)
Every time I come close to you
(Every time I'm kissing you)
Feel like I'm gonna dream every time
(I get butterfly, beautiful girl)
무심코 땅을 봐 like
너의 이름 세글자 너무나 설레는 걸 baby
네 작은 상처 하나 내가 아물게 해줄게
나의 사랑 그대 yeah
Yo 넌 마치 나비처럼
꽃 찾아 날아다니는 저 아이처럼
순수한 눈망울을 머금고 (no matter what) yeah
하늘하늘 거리는 몸짓
아른아른한 니 눈빛
나 어떻게 됐나봐
(You're the only one girl, one love, one life, yeah)
Every time (every time) I come close to you, yeah
(Every time I'm holding you)
Feel like I'm gonna dream every time (yeah)
(I get butterfly)
내가 약속한게 야속하게
어긋나더라 속타게
Just to now the game 다 똑같애
뭐 이렇게 복잡해
넌 남자를 못믿는데 사랑도 영원할 수 있는데
밀고 당기는건 왜 하는데
좀 더 솔직 하게 굴 순 없는데 (try)
내 눈을 봐
You see my eyes, see my lips
You! Listen to my heart
들린다면 답해줘
내 볼에 kiss and high 내 추억아 (oh yeah)
Yeah, that's be all I say
너와 내 설레임만 가득하다면은
우린 never ever no breaker, trust me
I'll make love with you
Every time I come close to you
(Every time I'm feeling you) (every day, every night)
Feel like I'm gonna dream every time

Yeah, you special to me 나비야
Hehe your turn
La la la la la la la

Everytime I had a horrible day and cried I use to play this song to relax me. I hope somehow gd knows how much he’s helped me in life. I’ve been an Astro fan for yrs and moonbin was my bias. This song was my favorite cover he did and with the recent news of his passing, it brought me back here.
Moonbin my beautiful butterfly, I hope you have now found peace🦋
