Messages from The Boyz members
Below are the letters from The Boyz members:
Sunwoo
Translation:
"I still don’t quite know how to begin this letter or what words to use to convey my heart, so please forgive me if it feels disorganized.
What I want to say to The B is this: Beyond being an idol, as just a human named Kim Sunwoo, I will never do anything that would betray your trust or my own.
I will carry the weight of my past mistakes in words and actions, reflect on them, and continue striving to become a better person. I’ll keep moving forward without stopping, delivering the love I want to give to The B with honesty and no pretense.
I’ll become someone truly deserving of the immense love you’ve given me.
It hurts me most to think that the love The B gave us so willingly might now cause you to doubt or blame yourselves.
I’ve always treated The B with sincerity, and I always will.
I’ll grow stronger and more mature, The B."
Younghoon
Translation:
"To The B,
When I debuted as a member of The Boyz on December 6, 2017, it felt surreal to see fans in front of me. It made me want to be loved even more by those people standing before me, so I worked hard every single day and thought to myself, I want to do better for them.
And on April 3, 2018, when the name “The B” was created, I was overjoyed like a little kid because we finally had a name for our fandom!
No matter what I did, The B always cheered for me, and supported The Boyz wherever and whenever. Seeing The B like that made me promise myself that I would never lose this precious presence. I’ve always believed that the reason I can continue this career is because of The B.
So I kept thinking, What can I do that The B would love even more? What kind of actions will make them love me more than they already do?
To be honest, you gave me the nickname 'Tear-soaked bread' because I cry so much at concerts. At that time, I was overwhelmed with complicated emotions—Will these precious people always stay by my side? Will The Boyz be able to keep moving forward?—and I cried.
Of course, I want to grow into someone even cooler than I am now, and I want our team to reach higher places. I have so many ambitions, but I also know things don’t always go the way we want them to, and that made me even more anxious.
THE B, you must be so tired and exhausted. I’m really, truly sorry.
Seeing your smiling faces always made me happy, but now I’m upset because I’m afraid I won’t be able to see those smiles anymore…
To be honest, I’ve also been struggling a bit.
Do you remember when I asked if it was okay to lean on THE B during hard times?
This time, I’d like to lean on you just once more. Would that be okay?
I’ll also be someone The B can lean on in return.
THE B, thank you for working so hard today.
I love you."
Q
Translation:
"Hello The B, this is Q.
Right now, what worries me most is The B.
You must be feeling so exhausted and worn out, right?
It breaks my heart and makes me feel so sorry that instead of giving you only good energy, which still wouldn’t be enough, I’ve caused you pain.
Being on stage in front of The B is something so precious and joyful to me.
Seeing each and every one of you, making eye contact, and greeting you while you smile made me incredibly happy, too.
Thank you so much for always giving me so much love and happiness.
From now on, I will also become someone who can give even more love to THE B.
Whatever I do, I’ll work harder to show you only the good sides of me.
I’ll live with a stronger sense of responsibility.
Once again, The B, I am truly sorry."
Eric
Translation:
"Hello, The B, this is The Boyz’s Eric.
Honestly, I don’t know what words I could say to bring even a bit of comfort to our THE B…
I sincerely apologize for the recent string of bad news that has caused hurt and disappointment.
All I feel is overwhelming guilt… I’m just so, so sorry.
In the 7 and a half years I’ve been promoting as The Boyz’s Eric, there has never been a moment when my heart wasn’t sincere toward The B.
And I have never taken the love I received from you for granted or treated it lightly.
So, even though I may not have the right to say this, I want to make another promise.
I promise that the precious, beautiful love you’ve given to The Boyz will never be something you’ll feel ashamed of—not even when you look back on it many years from now.
Thinking about how tired and discouraged everyone must be right now makes me feel so sorry and heartbroken…
Still, I truly hope you’ll stay by The Boyz’s side.
We will repay you with even greater love and better versions of ourselves. Please believe in us.
Each and every The B is someone so precious, necessary, and irreplaceable to me.
Because of The B, I exist and continue on.
Please, I hope the people I love, and those who love me, will no longer be in pain."
Jacob
Translation:
"Hello, this is The Boyz’s Jacob.
First of all, I’m sorry for suddenly stopping our daily communication for a few days, making you worry and feel uneasy.
I really wanted to come to you more often, especially now when many of you are tired and going through tough times, and bring only good news. I feel so sorry that I wasn’t able to do that.
I’m deeply grateful for the love and patience you’ve shown in waiting for us. I know it’s not something to take for granted. That’s why I’ve been doing my best to express my gratitude through good music and frequent communication, and I’ll continue to do so moving forward.
No matter how much of your happiness The Boyz may account for, I truly hope THE B is always genuinely happy. I just wanted to tell you that I’ll keep doing everything I can to make that happen.
You worked hard today, make sure to eat well, and as always, thank you so much."
Juyeon
Translation:
"The B,
I can only imagine how heavy and confused your hearts must have felt today… I understand better than anyone.
I’m truly sorry we’ve put you through this kind of situation.
Even so, you worried about me first, stayed by my side with warmth, and that means the world to me. I’m so thankful… and so sorry.
I never take your love for granted—I’m always deeply grateful for it.
From now on, we’ll make sure THE B doesn’t have to feel anxious anymore.
We’ll become a more trustworthy and proud version of The Boyz, and I promise to prove it with more responsibility and better actions.
We’ll stand more firmly by your side.
Thank you always. I love you."
New
Translation:
"The B,
You must have been really shocked, and I’m sorry for not coming to you sooner.
I needed time to think and sort through my feelings, and I was honestly scared to face THE B.
I hoped you wouldn’t be too hurt… but now I’m worried that this has been incredibly hard for you.
It pains me and weighs heavily on my heart to think that you were hurt simply because you liked us.
I’ll do my best so that the people I love no longer have to spend dark nights.
My love for you is still the same—it hasn’t changed.
And my love for The Boyz hasn’t changed either.
THE B, as I’ve always said, you are the reason for my music.
Thank you so much for finding me and for standing by my side.
I’ll pray that you don’t have to go through another long, dark night.
I love you!"
Hyunjae
Translation:
"To The B, who must be feeling so exhausted right now,
I honestly don’t know what words I can say to you at this moment.
I’m not sure if anything I say could be a comfort, but what I do want to say is: I’m truly, deeply sorry.
I know there must be many THE B out there who are hurt—or whose hearts have already closed off—and I feel so sorry for that.
If I could turn things back, I would, without hesitation.
That’s how determined I am to work harder, so I can share happy moments with The B again through our activities.
Every single moment I’ve spent with The B has been sincere, and it still is. That will never change.
Today must have been incredibly hard for you…
I know I’m still lacking, but I’ll do my best to help your hearts feel even a little bit more at ease.
I’m really, really sorry. And… heart to you."
