"Hello everyone and Star1. It feels like I'm greeting you for the first time in a while. This is Hyorin. You've probably been curious about my next steps. I'm sorry for getting to you late... I wanted to tell you what's happening, so I'm writing this letter.

I really thought hard on it for a long time. After wondering how to start my new beginning and what kind of music I'd like to approach, I've decided to begin again by myself. 

I was only able to spend the last 7 years and shine as a singer, a SISTAR member, and as Hyorin in this spot because of my Starship family and the SISTAR members. I wanted to say thank you though I'm unable to express it in words. I'll do my best to return that grace.

Though I'm a little afraid of the future, I'm excited for a new start. There may be hard and burdensome times because I'm starting alone, but I won't forget myself as Hyorin. I'll move forward energetically step by step. I thank everyone, and I thank them once again."
