Jackson Wang Opens Up About Depression
Jackson Wang recently sat down with Vogue for behind-the-scenes coverage of his Head in the Clouds Festival performance.
During the interview, the 28-year-old soloist shared that he has never been satisfied with his musical work until his latest album titled MAGICMAN.
He said: ‘I have never been satisfied with myself in my entire life, no matter what I do. And I think this album (MAGIC MAN) is the first time that I think it’s right. I have never been so raw in my life.
Furthermore, the idol explained, “I’ve been in this industry for eight or nine years to the point where I lost myself and everything fell into a loop.” You know it’s thing after thing, schedule after schedule. He was so depressed.
Wang shared: ‘I felt like, ‘You know what? Whoever it was, whatever it was, I want [to] just put that behind you and start over. And I want to be me for a second.” 100% me. Being honest with my audience and letting them know who I really am.’
Furthermore, he continued: ‘It may not be perfect, you know? Not everyone likes me. But at least if you like me, if you support me, you’re supporting the real Jackson.
