thank you, shinee.

words cannot express how emotional and heart-wrenching this concert must’ve been for you. even from an ocean away, i could feel the sentiment behind every single song, every dance, every VCR, every talk… nothing about this was easy, but all of you held your ground and got through it in a way that makes me even prouder (if that’s even possible) to be a shawol.

thank you onew, for being the bravest and incredibly strong leader to all of the members and fans. nothing in the world could have prepared you for this, but as the oldest and leader, you’ve handled it all with a leveled head and a warm heart. no one wanted your return to be like this, but we know that you’ll only do amazing things from here on out. thank you key, for being open and honest with not only yourself, but shawols too throughout all of this. you’ve shared so much with us when you never had to, but we appreciate everything that you’ve said and done thus far so much. not only has it helped us as your fans, but i hope that relieving yourself of those thoughts and emotions has helped you as well. thank you minho, for being the pillar to support the members, your family, and the fans. no one can even begin to describe how strong your love for your brothers is and it shows with every word you say and every action you do. you’ve taken such good care of not only yourself, but jonghyun’s loved ones and you have the biggest heart i’ve ever seen. thank you taemin, for remaining strong and dependable throughout everything. i know that emotions aren’t easily to express for you, but you’ve been so brave throughout all of this and have worked hard to keep jonghyun’s spirit alive. nothing about this was easy, but you’ve handled it amazingly thus far; keep going.  thank you jonghyun, for watching over all of us and your fellow brothers not only now, but ever since you left us. you are missed everyday; there isn’t a day that goes by where i don’t think of you. as your fans though, we (and your brothers) will be sure that your memory is never forgotten. 

you did well.

내 말이. (at Sony Centre for the Performing Arts)

들어야된사람이 없어서 할말이 없다. 저에게 아주 큰 위로가 됐고 저 이제 어떻게? 그냥 하늘에서 오빠가 편하게 쉬기바라고 오빠에게 너무 서투른 팬이어서 미안해요. 영원이 기억할게요. I have no words, now that the person who needs to hear them is gone. You have given me so much comfort throughout the years, what am I supposed to do now? I just hope that you are finally at peace in heaven and I’m sorry for being such a clumsy fan to you. You will be with me forever. . . J: Annyeonghaseyo, Hello~ (안녕하세요, 헬로) S: Uh.... J: Sofia? (소피아?) S: Yeah, (네) J: Where are you from? (**어디에서 왔어요?) S: I’m from the U.S. (미국에서 왔어요.) J: You’re from the U.S.? (미국에서 왔어요?) S: Yep (네) J: You speak Korean really well~ (한국말을 정말 잘하신네요~) S: Nooo~ Honestly, ... (아니요! 사실은) J: Uh huh~ (응~) S: To be a better fan to SHINee, I’m learning Korean. (샤이니에게 더 좋은 팬이 되려고 한국어 배워요.) J: Really~? Thank you~ How long have you been studying? (찐자~? 고마워요~ 얼마나 됐어요?) S: Since February, but I have to leave this month ㅠㅠ ( 2월부터... 하지만 이번 달에 가야 돼요...) J: Ah~ Well go safely! *hands him letter* Thank you~ (아~ 조심히 가요! 고마워용~) . . . #restinpeacejonghyun #종현 #shawolstaystrong #샤월힘내라 (at Seoul, Korea)
