In a special interview with natalie on the 24th, HYDE talked about producing the OP "Breaking Dawn" for 'NOBLESSE' animation and complimented Jaejoong's character as a flawless prince, check out this interview below;

-Q: The other day you produced Jaejoong-san’s song “BREAKING DAWN”. I think it’s rare for you to produce for male artists.

H: That’s right.

-The song is quite melodious & lyrics are sparkly. I’m impressed that there’s a gap between BD & HYDE-san’s own songs.

H: I originally had an idea about the song & the sound had more pop feeling. It was a good song but wasn’t really fit for my mood then. So I had no chance to introduce the song. Then Jaejoong asked me for a song. I thought it was a right song for Jaejoong to sing, because he’s a great singer & shows his respect to me. I gave it to him saying “If you like I’ll arrange it for you.” Then he really liked it, so I completed the song which would sound cool when sung by Jaejoong.

-What kind of attractions does Jaejoong-san have?

H: He’s a great singer. He’s quite serious about his work & a hard worker. He respects me. No wonder that he’s loved by his fans. His character is a so-called prince, I think. He’s almost flawless. As for the opening theme of NOBLESSE there was an offer that it should be a song about protecting one’s friends, but considering Jaejoong’s character I wrote the song to protect his fans if it’s sung by Jaejoong. It was a lot of fun for me to write a song thinking that Jaejoong’s fans would be thrilled by the song. The song has a lot of straight expressions that I can’t use for my own song.

-You mean there are some phrases you could include because it’s the song you produced (for other singers), right?

H: Yes! For example “your tears, I hate”, I never use it for my song but I assumed that it would make his fans’ hearts thump. Anyway I wanted to thrill Jaejoong’s fans. I think it has turned a good song but he sings a bit too much like HYDE.

Meanwhile, Jaejoong is set to appear on Fuji TV's "2020 FNS Music Festival" on December 2nd, he'll be performing "Firm Belief" by Kazumasa Oda, and he is also expected to hold an online concert "The Last On-Cert" for his worldwide fans, scheduled on December 5th.
