On stage as Two
The day in 2011 when we went up on stage for the first time after becoming a duo, amidst the nervousness which was even more heightened than that when we debuted, the Yunho Hyung who grasped and held my hand, when I was just staring at the ground. And the Yunho Hyung who had told me, “We can do it well”. Because Hyung is here, I was able to hold out till now, because Hyung is here, it seems like I will be able to attempt more challenges in the future. Because we are connected by the string called “TVXQ”, which will never be able to be severed. -Changmin [Epilogue in Ti Amo Photobook 2014]
Since I am human, have times when I am exhausted, but I didn’t feel alone – it was because of you that I got more strength. In 2010 at SMTOWN, coming back to the stage after being on hiatus for so long, I had not been that scared and nervous before but you took my hand once again and I felt that it wasn’t that it was two people, but rather that we could go on a new path as it was the two of us. At that time, the longing then was quite stuck like something had come up {t/n: longing for the stage? came up and stuck in his chest?}. Until now, it has not cooled down. On the last day of the dome tour in Japan before we went to the army, when I who was like a baby who had become overwhelmed by emotions and was crying sadly, don’t you know it was your hand that was reliably comforting me? -Yunho [Written letter to Changmin YouR PresenT Fanmeet 2017]
