[theqoo] CIX’S SEUNGHUN WHO IS HINTING AT RETIRING FROM THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY

To FIX.

It’s already been 7 years.

At first, I didn’t really know what anything was—I just started because I liked the idea of debuting.

And now, it still amazes me that I’ve spent such a long time together with you all.

Looking back, I was someone who lacked a lot.

There were many things I wasn’t good at, many mistakes, and moments when I couldn’t meet expectations.

But thanks to FIX, who supported me until the end, cheered me on, and told me I was okay,

I was able to slowly become a better person.

Right now, I’m someone who was clearly made by FIX.

Since debut, I’ve often heard that I’m someone who receives a lot of fan love,

and the time I spent communicating with FIX made me truly happy.

But at some point, I started to lose emotional space,

and during times when I couldn’t see clearly ahead,

I don’t think I was able to approach you like I used to.

If I made FIX, who waited for me, feel hurt, I’m truly sorry.

It’s not that my feelings toward FIX became smaller—

I just didn’t have the emotional room in my heart.

I also want to thank the company staff and everyone behind the scenes

who have always been by my side.

I was able to come this far thanks to all of your efforts.

After much thought, I’ve decided that now

I will temporarily put down the title of “singer”

and try to live a new life as an individual outside the stage.

It won’t be an easy path, but

I felt that this is a decision I truly need right now.

Since I’ve been singing and dancing from elementary school until now,

this new life is honestly scary and frightening.

But still, in my own way, in my own pace,

I will do my best to live well.

The time I spent on stage were the brightest moments of my life,

and at the center of those moments, there was always FIX.

Thank you for loving me.

Thank you for completing someone as lacking as me.

And thank you for walking through my youth with me, FIX.

Now we’ll each go on to live our own lives,

but I hope FIX will be happy.

I truly mean it.

If you ever think of me,

please smile and say, “He must be doing well.”

I’ll think of FIX the same way.

And to our Byunggon hyung, Yonghee, and Hyunsuk,

who walked together with me for these 7 years until the end

I want to say thank you as well.

Thank you for enduring both the happy and difficult moments together.

Thank you so much for these 7 years.

Because of you, I was a very happy CIX Seunghun.
