All the preparation is going well and the band is just waiting for Tim, who is now studying in Malaysia and will return home in April this year. The album is now 60% completed, in which, Lin composes all the songs and lyrics by himself.
The inspiration of Lin is from himself and one of his close friend, Bounhiep Bandith, who used to be the member of the Zest.
Lin's dream is to have his own business "CD shop" in the future. He revealed that he may not be able to rap when he gets older.
At present, the Zest joined many concerts organized by the S.D studio. Lin wants everyone to listen to his musics and he believes that everyone will love his songs as much as he does.
