푸른 밤의 푸른 달 (A Blue Moon on a Blue Night)

Over the past 8 months, I’ve been creating a book compiling some of my favorite Jonghyun quotes from Blue Night Radio. I, like many others, found comfort in listening to him on Blue Night, and reading the English translations later brought me a sense of peace that I find difficult to describe in words. When they were recirculating on Tumblr earlier this year, I was inspired to create a book dedicated to him that fans could read and find comfort in as well.

It includes English quotes originally translated by fans (Cosmicsticks, Fantaemsie, Minyeodan, Sullaem, and Thatcoolcatmeow) that I found through @fyjjong here on Tumblr. I had the help of two native Korean speakers to translate them back into Korean so that they could be written in his own language. I also created illustrations inspired by his words. I then case bound the book by hand with a translucent vellum dust jacket and end papers illustrated with roses.

Creating this book was an incredibly emotional experience for me, but one I would gladly do over again in a heartbeat. I got to spend hours upon hours reflecting on his words, feeling inexplicably close to him and admiring his soft, gentle heart. It allowed me to go through the grieving process while creating something dedicated to him, and I feel incredibly lucky to have been able to spend this much time with him. I want everyone who misses him to experience that feeling, and I hope that this book can serve as a small way to remember him and the goodness he gave us.

The full book is available to read online here.

keep on talking about jonghyun, please. always include him in any way that you can. continue to share his music, his words, videos of him, pictures of him, facts about him. introduce him to new fans of shinee with the same enthusiasm (if not more) than you would have done in the past. keep on loving him in the way that you always have (and even more). give back to him everything that he gave to us (and then some). the world and industry is so fast moving, we can let him get lost in the bustle of it all or left in the past or, even worse, treated like a taboo topic. don’t let him become someone that needs to be tip-toed around talking about or brought up only when it “makes sense to”. celebrate his life and accomplishments and just everything about him. never ever ever forget him. 

beautiful, special, gentle, kind, soft, bold, brave, loving, understanding, open-minded, loyal, cute, lovely, comforting, multifaceted, inspiring. the reason for countless changed lives, someone who left an impact on everyone he crossed paths with. i miss him.

ten years ago today, may 22nd, shinee released their debut single and ep of the same name, “replay”. “replay” was an immediate hit, earning shinee multiple rookie awards and helping to earn them the title of super rookies. the song entered on the melon year end digital chart at #28 and is still regarded as one of the greatest idol debut tracks out there.

[fyjjong]

time is going by too quickly. never stop talking about jonghyun. never stop sharing his words of wisdom, his poetry, his music. don’t let people forget his voice or his face or his name. don’t let anyone forget him or put him in the past. keep on loving him.

fans have noticed that the promotional poster for shinee’s upcoming best of album, ｢ shinee the best ~ from now on ~ ｣ which can be found at various metro stations throughout japan, features select comments from tweets shawols were asked to attach to the hashtag, #shineemybest, on twitter over the last few weeks. one that stood out specifically to fans was: “cause they’re 5 and forever will be” which can be found at the far corner of the bottom photo.
