FAN CAFE  - LOVE LETTER

[From Baekho] Liberation Day 

LOVES! Everyone knows its Liberation Day today right? They say Liberation Day is a day where light returns. I sincerely wish to thank the people who, for the sake of allowing light to return, fought with one heart, one goal, for the sake of our country's independence. It's a solemn day.

I happened to see a quote by a person who participated in the independence movement, and it brought tears to my eyes ㅠㅠ It is thanks to them that I, our members, and the fans we love, can face (our days) without worries^^I will always remember to be thankful towards those people, and in this precious time I'm here in the place where we love each other (fan cafe)^^

You hung our country's flag right???? It would be nice if everyone remembers to hang the flag today~~ Although we are not in the same space, as we hang the flag, in the moment we will share the same heart^^ Good night!!

(L.O./\.E) I received a coupon gift from Baekho oppa!  

I wrote a post saying that I put up the national flag on Liberation Day but there was a comment left and when I looked at it, a coupon!! How did you know that I liked Sulbing (store name) Mango Cheesecake Bingsu... (touched) Others who received it, which one did you get?? 

Screencap of Baekho's comment: Good good you're very kindhearted !! The thing that I can give to you is only this.. Even so, eat it deliciously^^

A fan showed proof that she, after seeing Baekho's post, hung the national flag. Following this, Baekho wrote "The thing that I can give to you, is this only", gifting her a bingsu. 

Seeing the fans' proof, Baekho left a post again. Baekho explained the (reason behind the) gift, saying "This year was the 70th Liberation Day, I wanted to spend precious time together with the fan who thought of it with great importance".

Following this, he added "I was very happy at the fact that there were fans who agreed with my honest feelings and thoughts, and sent their support. Eat it well, our fans."

Seeing Baekho's heartwarming story, netizens reacted with "It's really amazing", "I acknowledge that he's a thoughtful idol", "NU'EST's charms really keep coming out".

The comments in the fan letter room... it surprised you a lot right?

To be honest, yesterday while reading fan letters, I had a lot of thankful feeling towards our fans. Many people just let national holidays pass by. Although (people) may of course, because of their own busy lives, gradually become more indifferent, but this year was the 70th Liberation Day, and I wanted to spend precious time together with the fan who thought of it with great importance.

While reading the fan letters on the way home after schedules ended, I saw posts by fans who said that they agreed with what I wrote and raised the flag and I was really very thankful. Because I was so so thankful for our fans, I wanted to do something (for you all) but the things that I'm able to give are not a lot.... After much thought, I decided to gift bingsu... Oppa can't give you anything other than this..ㅋㅋ

This is something I felt this time, and although I'm a bit shy this to say this with my own mouth...  I was very happy at the fact that there were fans who agreed with my honest feelings and thoughts, and sent their support. 

Eat it well, our fans.

For today, the day where light returns, which I was able to spend with everyone, thank you.
