Turn on CC for English subs

Henry shows us that you have two choices when faced with adversity: declare defeat and give up, or admit that a path is blocked and forge a new one. Henry has fully embraced his boundless creativity and discovered through adversity that creativity will not be limited to one form of expression. It is formless and only needs a creator a vehicle for it to be made manifest. The most important lessons Henry has learned in his life is to not limit himself, to be unafraid of the unknown, and to work hard and seek expert training and collaboration. Henry is a true artist whose creativity will not be denied.

If i were to suffer that kind of bullying where everyone just makes me feel unwanted and worthless like i don't belong here I'd be in severe depression. I'm so so proud of Henry he's an incredibly strong person and always looks at positive side of things i really wanna have mindset like his. You're the best Henry 💙

Mỗi lần nhìn thấy Henry thì mình chỉ thấy tiếc nuối vì những năm tháng ở SM, không phủ nhận SM đã đào tạo Henry nhưng SM thật sự đã bỏ phí tài năng của Henry rất nhiều! Nếu năm đó SM không cho Henry ra mắt trong nhóm phụ của SJ, nếu năm đó SM thẳng thừng cho Henry solo thì bây giờ Henry sẽ gặt hái được nhiều hơn như thế. Nhma nhờ vậy thì mới có Henry của ngày hôm nay. Henry của hôm nay thật sự đã đạt được mục đích của bản thân là mang nguồn âm nhạc tích cực của mình đến tất cả mng, không bị bó buộc bởi khuôn khổ idol và có thể thoải mái làm ra thứ âm nhạc mình thích.

From Henry Out to Henry Lau. Henry, you are doing a wonderful and fantastic job to show people "why not" and you are the best!

I am not an ELF at the beginning but when I found the stage Henry with Super Junior's members, I thought the whole group, including Henry for sure, they're all so much talent and I admired them all. Back to the day when he showed us how confused he was to keep staying at the old company or leaving, there maybe one of his "WHY NOT". I feel thankful that he got the best decision for himself and we have an amazing Henry right now. Love, admire and proud of HENRY LAU so much. ❤️

Henry always looks cheerful... I never knew he experienced this in his past. This is... inhumane 😭

Henry， write an autobiography to have more people know your story! Hope no more cyber bullying any more!

The moment he said the crowd was not cheering for Henry out instead of Henry Lau, my heart just broke. How could people be so mean and crulel to someone they do not know? Imagine if he is someone you know and he is subjected to such humiliation just because of different ideals. Imagine how his parents must have felt. Oh God! This is so horrible!

This man is beyond talent. he is the definition of ART. One of the most humble and hard working human being on this planet. This is Henry Lau.

He is such a good role model. His life is not easy at all!

This is the fifth time i will be watching this. I always come here anytime i feel so down, stuck and clueless and it always help. Thanks henry

i didnt know about the “Henry Out”. must be so painful to hear that. i am glad that Henry pushed on and persevered. look at where he is now. such powerful story.

타국에서 모국어도 아닌 중국어로 이렇게 멋진 강연을 할 수 있다는게 놀랍네요. 20여분짜리 강연이었지만 헨리가 33년이라는 세월동안 걸어온 발자취를 같이 돌아보며, 그가 얼마나 자신의 인생을 치열하게 살아왔는지 알 수 있었네요. 겉은 너무나 유하지만 속이 정말 단단한 사람. 항상 닮고 싶고 배울게 많은 사람입니다. 많이 보고싶네요~~

His debut times are so sad 😭 it’s makes tear that he couldn’t share his first stage with family because of those horrible human beings thank God they made you stronger and be the best honourable person you are I will always love ❤️ and support you. Will never 👎 stop saying you are a genius 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I hate those people with all my might who were so mean and rude to Henry when he didn't even do anything to harm anyone 😭😭😭 He's such a sweet and honest person he didn't deserved that.... And even if i don't like some celebrity or someone but i sure as hell won't start a hate riot against them that's just stupid and inhuman.

Thank you henry for being stronger idk what my life right now if you choose to leave Korea and back to Canada maybe we can't even get a chance to watch masterpiece creative like you your pain build a better future hope I can be like you henry being strong enough

헨리 말꺼내기도 힘들었을 것 같아요.. 얼마나 고통스러웠을까..생각하면 마음이 아프네요.. 그래도 이겨내고 이자리까지 오기까지 노력하고 견뎌낸 헨리가 대단해요.. 그덕분에 우리는 헨리의 음악과 보석 같은 사람과 함께 할 수 있네요.. 분명 전세계 사람들이 헨리의 매력을 알게되면 좋겠어요~~♡

Thank you very much, Blue Whale. So proud of you, Henry 🥰

the sad part is ‘henry out’ wasn’t even the worst thing he experienced

What a speech and wonderful journey. Thank you for making me realize that 'why not' is the way we survive of society and improve ourselves.

Why not? 멋진 헨리

Thank you for the subs. I love him so much for being so hardworking and determined, I still remember that time when many fans didn't like him, it was so sad, I never understood why but those hard moments made the person henry is now. Stronger and he is still working on achieving his dreams. He is so talented so I think he can do whatever he wants. I am glad that he is doing so well now and I am sure better things are coming

Pround of you, Henry

I love Henry more than love

For those who always got offended when I said Henry isn't Super Junior, now you know what I mean. His first debut performance was to play violin for Super Junior but got bullied. Then, SM suspended and stoped all his activities in Korea and let him joined Super Junior M (Mandarin) which promoted in HK, Taiwan and China. He never showed up in any Super Junior albums.

Henry, you're superb, awesome & full of positive energy!

Henry made it. Hooray!

Just do what you love and what makes you happy,at least,now you said all your sentiments and heartaches,,why not?that released you from that bondage.of revenge,,I SALUTE YOU KING HENRY,for being honest,,go on,,you.have your own identity THE HENRY LAU,,congratulations,YOU ARE THE BEST AND THE MOST ADORABLE ARTIST,,good luck to your journey,,🙏🙏💕💕

You are well(!) prepared. Thank you for your endeavor. Great Henry~! 😇😇😇😇✅✅✅✅

❤❤❤love you Henry !!! You are the best ❤❤❤

Thank you so much for uploading with English subs 🥰 Henry is so strong mentally and physically. Such a role model to the young generation. If it was for me I would’ve given up during the initial objection!..

Thanks for the sub so I know what he said 👍👍 and I so proud of Henry, his journey, he's growing better and stronger. I like his mentality to always challenge himself with his "why not" so now we know Henry Lau who's multitalented person ❤💕❤💕❤💕❤💕

Thank you so much for the English subs. I'm so proud of you mochi. I always felt sad that we couldn't protect Henry I'm sorry we weren't enough but I hope u know that many ELF loved you & always will 💙💙

Thank you so much for the Eng Sub! This will help me share my love and admiration for Henry with my English speaking friends.

thanks for your subbing. I'm not a fan of him but he always makes me happy when I see his product, I mean the song or some video of him. He always makes me think why I am not as positive as him when I have something bad. He has come thru so many shit things but in the end, I realized maybe some shit makes him stronger and I can learn it from him. I hope Henry will be more shining in the future, and everyone recognizes his talents

Ugh I didn't know that reaction come from ELF :( I'm so sorry Henry :(

Thank you so, so much for uploading and subbing it in English for everyone! Henry has done and went through so many things but is still an underrated artist. He deserves more credit and public recognition than he’s gotten so far for doing so much. SM really wasted this talent, and it’s been their lost since forever. I’m glad to have listened to this inspiring talk. Thanks for uploading this!

Thanks for subtitle. Henry ,you are the best of role model.
