True Embodiment Of An Artist
A Farewell
Dear J,
It has been seven years since I got to know you and Shinee. It was your group that brought me to the wonderful world of Kpop. You were not my bias but you've alway had my respect. You have one of the most beautiful voices, not only in Korea, but in the world. You are one of the few that can move people through your singing. I've always admire how good you are at singing, performing, and even composing songs. You are a very talented person. You are not an idol nor a singer, in fact you are a true embodiment of an artist.
Thank you for the memories. I got to see you twice in this life of mine and I must say that those times were fun. Thank you for the music. I may not have listened to all of the songs you've written but those that I've listened to surely moved me, inspired me, and made me feel your passion.Thank you for the hard work. You have always been smiling in front of us, fans. This is to show us your gratitude. Thank you for loving us, shawol, you never failed to make us feel loved. Thank you for introducing me to the world of kpop.
I am sorry. I am sorry if I was not able to show you how important and great you are. I am sorry for being so selfish, for not considering how you feel. I am sorry if I was not there to comfort you. I am sorry that I was not able to ask you every single day, 'how are you? are you feeling okay?'. I am sorry for not telling you that, 'you've done fine. Smile, you did good today.' I am sorry for causing you pain.
I might have met you only twice, and you may not know me personally, you've been part of my life, my teenage life which is the happiest part of my life, thus it will be hard not to shed tears. I may not have told you how much you've changed my life, but let me tell you now, through your songs I was able to smile, cry, and feel comforted. They saved me from the darkness. Thank you.
J, I know you are happy now. The pain in gone. The sadness too. Smile. We will also smile. But I cannot promise that we will not cry. You worked hard. You did a good job, you always did. Please look after us, especially your mom, your sister, Onew, Key, minho and Taemin. Rest well now, my dear. Rest in peace. I love you, we love you, J.
