Dear Readers.....

I've thought about this for a while, and have decided this is the right time to say it. No, I won't be leaving my story don't worry.
I am, however, going to update less frequently. I usually update once every one or two weeks (which I thought was included as fast), but I guess it's still long for some readers. So I am sorry to disappoint some of you when I say that the updates will be less and less frequent.

Read further if you are somehow interested enough to know why:

  1. Something has happened in my personal life - something I won't say here or to anyone. And with this problem persisting, it will be harder for me to focus my time on the story. There are currently others things I should be focusing on.
     
  2. I think I am hitting that slump in my life where I'm experiencing my lowest moments.. (Just like Woo Hyun did, there is a real connection~) In all seriousness though, I feel I can be good at encouraging other people except for myself. I think my writing is reaaaaally bad, and I applaud all my readers for coping with my stories despite my lack of vocabularly, super ordinary sentences, and my poor skills as a writer. I used to think it was still okay, but maybe because I've been feeling down, I'm starting to see the bad in my writing. Seriously, thank you for enduring it guys. You guys are awesome :')
     
  3. For Back in K-Drama, even though I have planned a lot of chapters ahead, there are still a lot of things and key events I have not planned. I actually kinda feel I am writing more to please readers rather than because I enjoy it. Instead of writing to have fun, it becomes more like a daily routine because I want to meet the deadline every week to keep all my readers happy. I am a people pleaser type of person, so I have this tendency to do this at the cost of everything else (including ignoring my brother, family members, friends, other activities that I should be doing). Which isn't healthy for me, or anyone.


Therefore, in conclusion, I have decided to make slower updates. I don't know how slow... It won't be like one update every 6 months, cause I still have a sense of responsibility in me. XD I promise I will finish Back... I'm sorry for this sudden decision and if this... hurt... or... disappoint any of you? I'll still be lurking around on AFF everyday... I thank you if you decide to continue and wait, which will make me cry since I am writing this during my overemotional time of the month if you know what I mean.... But even if you don't wanna wait and decide to abandon the story (and me) that's fine too... It's okay... I'm not using reverse psychology.. You can leave if you want T_T 

Again, in all seriousness... I'm sorry... I thank you... I appreciate all your comments, upvotes, and subscriptions!
I love you~ <3

Aaaahhh... Thank you everyone! Not sure if you'll get a notif if I reply here... Probably not... But I don't know what to say to you one by one cause it's mostly the same thing XD
But thank you all for being so kind and understanding! I'll be back again soon... This problem isn't going away anytime soon it seems, so I don't want it to keep me from writing even if it's still there... Besides, like Infinite has said many times... I should Come Back Again.... They reaaally keep saying to come back back back back bacckk.. And as if that isn't enough they sing "She's back" as a confirmation... XD So yeah... I'll be back soon... :)

Aww I know I haven't commented in a while but I really haven't been on AFF too much in a while.
Anyways, I think it's great that you're taking this break because your mental health is very important!
I hope that you will get better soon and come back with a smile! Fighting!

Fighting! I know life can be tiring sometimes, but you're an optimist person most of the time and I hope you start seeing light soon <3 I also hope that whatever this Big Problem is, you get over it soon... so you can be the happy cheesy Mel we know<3 Nothing is as bad as it seems at first, I promise.
YOUR WRITTING IS REALLY GREAT! You may think it's not but trust me, being able to write comedy, angst and romance is no easy feat, and your sense of humor is actually very funny. You have a way with words that makes our hearts feel warm after reading~
(Oh, see, I'm being cheesy and it's your fault.)
I hope you feel better and you come back as new. Take your time with the updates, feeling well comes first! And if you aren't satisfied with the content of your updates, I think us readers and friends can understand the delay. I'm sending you lots of hearts and love so you can feel my support<3

Luv u!

It's okay we understand!
Even though I haven't been reading Back much lately because I've been busy with life, I understand what you're going through.
Around a year ago I felt the same way and I was quite in a slump, although I wouldn't say the biggest one in my entire life. And I started neglecting everyone, everything I loved like writing, and school. But this year I'm making up for it and getting more into my social life, school work, and stuff.
You can make it! Make sure to keep a positive attitude and not let life bring you down! And try to let people in that really helps. And remember that besides pleasing others you also have to please yourself sometimes. Fighting!

I'll wait patiently for you, author-nim!!! I really love your stories and I'm willing to wait for it. :) The only thing I can't wait for is for that witch to finally disappear from GyuHee's lives. Haha. XD Fighting!

awww it's okay mel eonni!
i get u, sometimes even i feel like i'm obliged to write instead of writing for fun (and that is why i started a one-shot gallery /don't even talk about the shop ></ )
it's okay, you need something to inspire you too (not even related but YOU NEED TO BE INSFIRED!)
i'll wait for all the updates, and don't say your writing is bad :) you just have to satisfy yourself and not everyone reading the story ^^
