This needs to be said and Iβm tagging everyone on this because its more than Jonghyun
According to a Dispatch interview with a close friend of Jonghyun, he died feeling like a failure and that he couldnβt live up to expectations. Can we please stop putting these idols on pedestals so high that the moment they donβt do as well, they feel like they will plummet into nothing? I would rather have my favorite groups announce they were never going release music again if it meant that they could focus on themselves and live happy lives. At the end of the day, I donβt need a new album. I donβt need a world tour. But what I do need is for my faves to get physical and mental rest. And to know that sales and views dont matter. What does matter, at least to me, is their happiness, them knowing their worth, and that they are enough. Jonghyun didnβt deserve to feel like he wasnβt enough, and no other idol should.
