According to the interview, since finishing his mandatory military service Jang Ki-yong has made his focus seeing the people he missed during that time, namely his parents and family. He also mentioned eating the food that he wanted to eat and living healthily. Jang Ki-yong said the main difference between his life before and after ilitary service was relative busyness. Beforehand, Jang Ki-yong was always busy, but afterwards, he had time to reflect on the situation.

Jang Ki-yong used this to explain to his fans why it was that he hadsn't yet committed to a new project and requested they give him time in this regard. Jang Ki-yong said that he has been using this time to eat good food but also to maintain a rigorous exercise routine and do his best to live without regrets. Jang Ki-yong claimed that he'd been planning his days in advance, and thinking to himself that he'd executed them perfectly when his days go as plans.

For personal motivation, Jang Ki-yong said that he'd been thinking a lot of Lady Gaga's song Always Remember Us This Way from A Star is Born as a motivational. Jang Ki-yong stated that he'd gone a long time without speaking to fans in part because he wanted to make sure that his return was appropriately cool, and that he needed time to think over and refine his approach. Jang Ki-yong said that he wanted to be remembered a person who believed in himself, who made his own life.
