ARMYs.

Check out the full translation of the letter!

“To the ARMY that I love,

The wind is very cold as it is approaching the end of November. Everyone already knows this, so I’ll try to write a little letter to you.

I will start a new journey next December. I will be leaving everyone’s side temporarily to fulfill my military duty. A part of me feels heavy when I tell this, but on the other hand, my heart feels warm when I remember the precious memories I shared with ARMY. Every moment I spent with you was the brightest period of my life. ARMYs’ smiles, support, and love compelled me to listen. I am so grateful that you encouraged my dream and walked silently with me.

I’m a little cautious about telling you to wait for me indefinitely during my service. A year and 6 months is a long time. That’s why I can’t say those selfish words, but I promise you that when I come back, I’ll be where I’ve always been, standing on stage again having grown up.

During this period, I hope that ARMYs’ lives are always filled with laughter and happiness, and I hope that their daily lives are filled with health and beauty. I will miss you deep in my heart as I wait for the day when I can meet you again to talk about new things. Don’t get sick and stay healthy.

I love you.

(Is it too early to write a letter? Eh-hem.)”
