Former EXID’s Hani mourns the late Shinsadong Tiger: 'A truly good person, I miss you'

AKP STAFF

Former EXID member Hani has paid tribute to the late Shinsadong Tiger

On March 3, Hani expressed her feelings, saying, "Oppa, do you know? You were truly a good person, and I was always grateful for that. But I regret not telling you that enough."

She continued, "Inside the fence you built for us with your care, effort, and sacrifice, we laughed a lot. You were the best protector. Thank you for keeping us true to ourselves."

Hani reminisced, "Just as you said, I eventually found happiness. And I will continue to strive for it because I know that’s what you would have wanted most. I miss you, Oppa. I love you. Thank you. Rest in peace."

She also shared a conversation with Shinsadong Tiger, who had encouraged her, 

"You're not a worrisome existence! You will eventually be happy and win because, though you may be slower and more frustrating than others, you gain from it yourself. Let's not lose our self-esteem." Hani humorously responded, "Even Oppa thinks I’m slow and frustrating! I did try my best!" adding, "Thank you for waiting even though I’m slow and frustrating."

Shinsadong Tiger and Hani had a connection through EXID. Shinsadong Tiger launched EXID in 2012, and the group gained popularity with their hit song "Up & Down." Shinsadong Tiger passed away on February 23 at the age of 41. Out of respect for the family's wishes, specific details have not been disclosed.

[Below is the full text of Hani’s message]

Oppa, do you know?

You were truly a good person

And I was always grateful for that

But I regret not saying it enough

Inside the fence you built with your care, effort, and sacrifice, we laughed a lot

You were the best protector

Thank you for keeping us true to ourselves

Just as you said, I eventually found happiness

And I will continue to strive for it

Because I know that’s what you would have wanted most

I miss you, Oppa

I love you

Thank you

Rest in peace
