Last year, while living in South Korea, I had the opportunity to conduct an in-person interview with Lee Sang Bin (이상빈) and Kim Kyu Jong (김규종) for the Chilean magazine Revista Rocanrol. A little background: I was fascinated by Kim Kyu Jong, who first made his mark as a member of the K-pop group SS501. While continuing his music career, he also expanded into painting, the food industry, and various artistic ventures. At the same time, his close friend Lee Sang Bin began his career as a songwriter before transitioning into the world of fragrance design and perfume creation. Bringing together their different creative backgrounds, the two collaborated to create P.I.Z., a brand that blends art, music, storytelling, and fragrance into a unique creative experience. It was inspiring to hear how their friendship and shared passion for creativity evolved into a business that reflects both of their artistic journeys. I'm grateful I had the chance to sit down with them and share their story with Revista Rocanrol. https://shorturl.at/4E9Z6 Interview is translated by me in Spanish
