Just as I am very grateful for our members and our members’ families. I’m grateful for the company too. There have been many events, but… it’s a bit cliché to say this, I know, all the members and I can do is just promise our fans. that we will always work hard and try our best to show the best versions of us as much as we can. All we can hope is… our fans are there to support RIIZE and our future too. to our fans. We always hope… well, our biggest hope is that RIIZE and Briize are there for each other! We just want to say thank you again for this award, we love our fans and… thank you so much!

Anton’s speech after they won the award. The feeling that made me want to cry when he said that many things had happened during the year, we know very well what he is talking about, right? But when you don’t let them say a lot of things, you just have to assume pic.twitter.com/GMDAif7i2S
