REVERSE : BREAKING THE SILENCE 

No. The apology is not for STAY, it was for Stray Kids. Woojin is apologizing for leaving when they needed him because its what he thought was best. I am neutral with him but whatever you believe, it is SO immature to continue hating him and having him suffer.

I still don't understand why he's still getting hate for this. It happened in the past and now it's over. He's doing his own thing and so are they. He did what was best for him so as long as he's happy, that's all that really matters. Yeah it's upsetting that he left the group, but seriously it's been years. Move on guys. You still have Stray Kids and whether or not you choose to support Woojin is up to you, but I will always support him. I'm proud of you Woojin!! 💗💗

The amount of hatred toward Woojin has NEVER made sense. He didn’t commit any crime, yet he was accused of all kinds of things, including abusing SKZ (it’s insane that people think Chan or JYPE would let that happen). Woojin just left the group. That’s it. If you are STAY, how can you perpetuate hatred toward someone when they were a SKZ? Just because they left to pursue a solo career? The death threats, hate messages and dislike he still gets on everything he posts is just cruel and wrong.

I love how the international and Japanese cubs support him. They actually have a brain

Do you understand he’s apologizing because he left he’s group when everything was ready for the comeback? The album, photo, choreography, their tour … and this decision gave a hard time for the others. And the people who started those fake rumors are the one who own him a BIG apology. So now can people stop associating him with he’s former group? It’s pretty annoying

For everyone who's saying he apologized after 5 years NO HE DID NOT! He apologized in late 2019 with his first letter to the fans and after that in 2020, during his very first fanmeeting with NewArea. Just like he said in the video, you don't listen to his words. You never did.

Bro, with the amount of hatred he still receives to this day, you would've thought he murdered and robbed an old lady. But no, he just quit his job to work in another place 💀 Well, when I was in college, I saw what he did as a total betrayal. But when I entered the workforce myself, the whole hatred is baffling, to the point of looking like a childish tantrum. Sure, I was annoyed when my coworker suddenly quit and left me with a load of works behind, with added pressures from my higher ups. But never once I wished them getting falsely accused of a serious criminal like SA. And I eventually moved on to focus on my own job, with them getting their new ones. I wish fans, whether Kpop fans or other celebrities' fans, will realize that no matter how much you want to see your favorite groups as families, you should realize being an idol is A JOB. And you won't aways fit in to your work environment, thus the reason people will quit and change their workplace. No matter how supportive and kind my coworkers are, there are moments where I just wanna leave due to the workplace not fitting for me. And yes, it's highly possible that I will still enter the same industry because my expertise is on that field. I just change my location and direct environment. Yes, the idol industry OVERCOMPLICATES it, but when peeled to the core, you'll see of how simple the problem actually is.

Being in kpop world since Gen 2, i am trully glad he made that decision. He put himself first and THATS OKAY. After what happen to Jonghyun and Sulli or Go Hara, i will NEVER EVER underestimate someone's struggle in any way, until they NEED to make such hard decision,, like leaving a group. No matter how selfish or careless it sound on the news, they have their own reasons. And as long as everyone survive, i'll be grateful. There will always 2 sides of every story. In this case, none of us have the right to say anything on skz behalf or woojin. We don't know what truly happen. Both SKZ or Woojin fans must know, fanwar like y'all do these days are wasting time and energy. In the end, it was the best decision for them all. I get why STAY was very upset, but imagine if he didn't leave and everyday he struggled. Not just him, all members will suffer. IMAGINE THIS. Put yourself in Shinee members shoes. Had to lose a member due his mental health issue, can you imagine if this happen? The members will suffer even more and felt the guilt that probably stay in their heart forever. I am not trying to compare things they were going thru. Like i said, never underestimate someone's big decision that might changes everything. You will never know what they were going through every single day. Stop throwing so much hate to each other. Both fandom please, dont let others think y'all just a toxic fandoms. Be nice. All was in the past. Don't just see the negative, there are many positive things y'all can learn from what happen. To protect your faves, please be kind to each other. No matter what happen, Woojin was part of Stray kids and thats a fact no one can change. Just accept it and lets move on. As granny ELF, who experience losing SUJU members due personal issue and other things, for me, everything that happen is for a reason. I will never blame any of them for the decisions they made. Because personally i dont know them. I dont have the right to say things when i dont know the truth behind it. After what happen to Shinee, i witness what my best friend went thru. She's a hardcore Shawol. I will never forget the impact of a fans losing their idol like that, it was hard even for ELF too. Because Shinee is like our little brothers and we support them too. Learn from us. I still support the 13 separate ways and thats okay. Wanna be a solo stan? Thats fine. Just support your fave with all your love and everything you got. You dont need to throw hates to others or say bad things based on assumptions or rumors. Bcoz again, its wasting time. And it will only make other people outside your fandom think y'all just a bunch of toxic people with no life. Be wise using social media. Better use it to support our boys than spitting crazy assumptions and so much hatred to others. And as a STAY i wanna say,, Please be kind to everyone because one nice word, can safe a life.. lets make our fandom a safe place for our boys 💙 Good luck with your album Woojin.. Keep fighting! Don't stop making music and sing with all your heart. Stay healthy.. ❤

Y'all no one's responsible for Woojin's condition neither Woojin himself nor straykids those who are responsible for the controversy are the fake fans who made things difficult for everyone and they had to go through a lot i hope to see woojin as a successful soloist and skz to achieve their goals love for skz as 8 boys kpop group and woojin as a soloist

As a stay, the ones who hated on him and spreaded those false rumors, owe him an apology. He did not deserve the things he went through.

I’m I the only who saw how he was trying not to cry? Woojin deserved better and deserves more than what he got. He thought it was the best decision for everyone. If it was you, YOU WOULDN’T LIKE IT! So why do that to him?! Before I criticise or hate someone- a regular person to an idol, I put myself in their shoes. How would I feel if that happened to me or someone said or did that to me? I don’t think I would have liked it. Please what you say or do matters. To an idol or not! After all, we are all HUMANS. I think that’s what people don’t understand about idols. They are Human too!

Most stays still attack Woojin because they believe If he apologised sincerely to them, why did chan feel hurt? Someone apologizing to a person doesn't immediately remove possible hurt the person being apologised too might have. Just as you have imagined that woo never apologized to them, and just left abruptly, so you feel this apology should be directed to the skz members, it's possible he's apologising to the knowledge of fans publicly, because they're the ones still harrasing him till today. He's apologising to prevent harassment, and your solution somehow is to harras him more. I get you might not like the guy, but when you view his actions from the lens of a human being, who's trying all possibilities to end all the hate that comes his way, I think you'd sympathize with his situation a bit more. He is literally treated worse than a criminal. You guys send him hate as though he ended your individual bloodlines or something. It's quite odd. Even if you think he left on bad terms, why are you taking it upon yourselves to send hate on behalf of stray kids, when you don't know the details of what led up to his leaving, and how it all went down in private. You're attacking him based on an illusion you've painted in your head. Skz feeling hurt is valid, apology from woo for more workload on them, or not. Woo feeling hurt and wanting to leave a job to explore his musicality in a way that he feels suits him better is valid. He's most likely apologizing because he thinks it will reduce the hate he still gets 4 years later. I get that stays have tunnel vision to the pain the skz members might have gone through having their friend leave their shared job, but I think if this is viewed as a situation with real human beings, not fictional characters or made up scenarios or speculations, If this is viewed with a realistic perspective, all this hate would have ended ages ago.

Ive never, NEVER cried so much during a 5 min vid..

I love the way he dosen’t apologies for these mean and toxic fans like some idols do but instead apologizes to straykids ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Ive been a fan ever since Stray Kids debut, seeing him leave hurt. But he did NOT deserve the hate. Seeing him speak up after so long, it made me in tears. It made me really happy as well. Id nver thought this topic would come back after so long.

Everything happens for a reason, if he didn't leave, it would have affected him, and he knew that, that's why he left. He did nothing wrong with choosing his health. And also, if he didn't become a soloist, we would never have gotten to listen to his beautiful songs, that just ascend me to heaven

He FINALLY broke his silence. I am soo proud of you Woojin. Soo proud. I’m soo happy to see him grow and become mature. Keep going Woojin, you deserve the worlds every one bit of happiness. ❤

I remember Woojin leaving SKZ and the drama that followed , and honestly i never understood the hate he got. No one knows the real reasons why he did what he did, they were never disclosed, but he did what he thought was best for him at that time , its his life and its his choices . He doesn't deserve hate from anyone except the people directly involved. He's making his peace before he moves on and I respect that and wish him all the luck in the world. I'm looking forward to seeing what he does next in his music .. Stay strong Woojin 💪🏻 You've got this ! ❤

That was very deep and the way the thought of “what if he didn’t leave” or “what if people didn’t hate on him so much for leaving” has always been in my head since I became a stay this really hit hard for me

You don't have to apologize, Woojin. You were a victim of malicious people from internet. You are not a bad person as they claim, you just wanted your own peace and happiness and as Cubs, we admire you for that...

Continuing alone wasn't something he wanted. He wanted to continue in SKZ, but after the groundless slanders, fake news and lynchings, he was not himself and had a hard time. I don't understand those who think that even though years have passed since this incident, he still continues to insult him and wants him to die. In my opinion, those who don't like Woojin have no right to continue to stay.

It's good to talk about it. He's matured a lot and it is good to be open about it. I hope he's even more open about it in the future. I'm a stay, but I hate what stays are still doing to Woojin after all these years. I hope the harassment stops

Its the fandom who owes him a big apology. Woojin deserved better. Although we can't really change anything that happened in the past but I really hope he gets the things he genuinely deserve. I'll always be there with you Woojin💓

I’ve known Kim Woojin since the beginning there is no way in hell he should be apologizing for something that isn’t worth it because what was the point of him apologizing because all the comments were said about him, they should be apologized to him. He deserves the world no one like him needs to be thrown out or be hated on for something he didn’t really do, so y’all “STAYS” need to leave him alone because whatever happened in the past needs to stay in the fucking past y’all need to grow up stray kids still loves him and he loves stray kids, so what’s the point of just being hateful towards him? What did he do to you? I don’t understand.

Vi que las algunas personas (que lo odian) estan destacando la parte en la que el dice que era joven y "egoista". Yo les pregunto ¿Priorizar la salud tanto fisica como mental de uno, es egoista? Enserio piensan eso?? Sí, el no priorizó la salud mental de los otros integrantes por eso él asimismo se llama egoísta pero sabiendo todo el hate que le caía estando en el grupo y más encima siendo joven, tal vez el haya pasado un mal momento y no sabiamos. Si bien como idol una de las cosas a las que se tienen que enfrentar es al odio que le caen de otra gente, no pueden ignorar el hecho de que Woojin era el menos preferido del grupo y que si había un claro favoritismo entre st4y (como todos los grupos en general, aceptemoslo). Hay muchos clips que demuestran que st4y (no todas) no quería a Woojin, lo llamaban g0rd0, le decian que retrasaba al grupo, que era feo incluso existe un video en donde ellos estaban en un fanmeeting y era el cumpleaños de Woojin y ninguna st4y quiso cantarle el cumpleaños y de hecho Ch4n le tuvo que decir que por favor cantasen. Tambien a las dieta (que recalco otra vez, los idols tambien se somenten a dietas), como él ya había hablado antes, cuando estaba en el grupo, jyp lo sometió a una dieta donde solo comía una barra de proteína al día y nada más que eso a excepción de los días domingo dónde podía comer lo que quisiera y él elegía pollo. Esos tal vez fueron solo algunos de los factores por el cual Woojin se fue del grupo, más las cosas que no sabemos (y que por eso supongo yo, en el comunicado de cuando él se fue decía "temas personales"). Y más encima con todo lo que pasó en el 2020. Yo realmente lo admiro por la fortaleza que él tuvo para no quitarse la vida como lamentablemente otros idols. Le hicieron un rumor falso sobre que había ac0sad0 a una chica y que había maltr4t4do a los integrantes. Le filtraron el número de teléfono, amenazaron de mu3rt3 a su madre, le hicieron la vida imposible. El confesó que no se lo deseaba a nadie pasar por lo que él había pasado diciendo que sufrió de ansiedad (probablemente depresión tambien por todo lo que dijo) y algunas veces en serio se preguntaba si era el Villano. Ahora replanteese si él en verdad fue egoísta o no.

Kim Woojin I will forever hold you in the highest regard. As a precious soul, you deserve to be cherished, not treated as a mere punching bag. Your voice, your words, your melodies, and your very essence have illuminated our lives with boundless joy and inspiration. Those who cannot see the brilliance of your being are blind to the extraordinary beauty you possess. To exist in the same era as you is a blessing beyond measure. I eagerly await the unfolding chapters of your story. With overflowing pride, I stand by your side, honored to be your proud Cub on this new chapter of your life. We love you forever and always! 🐻💙

This is exactly what I mean by childish people .. people who hide behind screens and pretend to respect that one person before SOMTHING is spread and they go against them .. woojin never deserved what he was given. People calling him selfish and arrogant is the completely different to the real thing .. I see why he chose to help himself before the others . He was in a massive accusation circle that people kept spreading and adding things that didn’t happen .. the fact that people can say what they want and think it’s fun or they have a point when they don’t . Woojin yes stessed skz out but like he said he was young and thought of the only thing to do and before you say “ he was the oldest “ no matter what age or number higher he was just 21 years old and wanted to do what he dreamt and worked hard for .. no matter how skz felt . They are way more better now they are happy and jolly and have got far and so has woojin he looks like he has done a lot better as a solo more then a group and PING and reminder this situation had happened 6 damn years ago so stop bring it up to argue , call names , attention what ever .. you are making your self a complete fool . You should be grateful woojin APOLIGISED AGAIN for you sake when it shouldn’t have never been about you . And if you say “ he never has “ he did it shows that you are just copying what people who just started staning them .. please stop hate . Because idols are yk dying from peoples word s

Woojin doesn't have to come out and apologize, the toxic fans need to apologize for all the hate they threw at Woojin and how bad they made him feel. It makes me feel very bad that the hate still continues towards him and he still has to apologize. Woojin seems like a very good person to me and we have to support him in his solo career.

This hurts, and the fact that no matter how many times he explains himself there will be people hating on him just for doing what was best for him... He'll always have my support!

Lets make it clear that he left upon his own will. He apologized that he left making the rest of skz stress from losing a member. But that doesnt leave the fact that us stays are still bringing him down on his choices. We made accussations, death threats, and other horrible things that ruined his career. All for what, because he didnt stay with what he didnt wanna do? Let woojin be woojin doing the music he enjoys and let him live his lifestyle. We need to support him for what he chooses to do because that action was way in the past and both woojin and skz are doing well amazing now. The true apology needs to come from those “stays” who made him suffer

He had the right to do what was best for him and I wish him all the best 💜

Can us Stays stop the hate please... I know a lot happened and i know some are still mad and hurt but thats no reason to hate on someone and attack them for years because of something they did in their past. Woojin is his own person, his own Artist, support him or don't but whatever you do just dont hate on him. No one deserves what he has been put through. He apologized to Skz, thats all he can do to move forward. Im proud of Woojin for who he has become and what he has done with his career and life. I love you Woojin.💖

Based on what you believe, you do’t have to support him, but you also shouldn’t hate him. We don’t know the full story and it’s been years. Let’s be kind to him.

CUBS, please know that not all of STAYs hate Woojin. I'm one of them. I'm a fan of skz, and I also love Woojin and his music. Woojin, I'll support you forever. Your music always heals me. I'm looking forward to listening to the music you want to do!

You're so strong, Woojin. We love you ❤❤ On behalf of STAYS, I apologise. The hate you got was not needed.

Woojin, I'm proud of you for being able to survive despite everything.

I'm a felix fan and my idol would never stand for me sending hate or trying to ruin someone's career so I sincerely wish Woojin good luck in his endeavours and for him to develop as an artist in whatever way he wants to ❤ felix, or the boys wouldn't want us hating on anyone.

Wowwww... I feel like this is actually a huge step for you, Woojin, and I'm so, so proud of you. I'll always be here to support you on your journey.

How can anyone complain about this? This was an incredibly genuine and remorseful apology. It has all the marks of a good apology: acknowledgement that his actions caused pain, and a promise to learn from it and move forward with more maturity. He even addressed that it has been a long time. People are just determined to hate him for no reason.

woojin NEVER deserved any of the things he had to go through..

Im 62 from the U.S. and your music has an adult contemporary feel. I enjoy your covers of American music and you sing them better than the original artist. Your vocals are clear and you project well. You have an extremely strong voice and your range is amazing. As for the obstacles you have overcome be proud that those comments and false accusations didn't keep you from giving up. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. I admire your resilience and fortitude. God Bless from the Great State of Texas. with much respect.

Wow, Woojin, your words were so heartfelt. As hard as it must have been, I am glad you put yourself first. Yes people got hurt, yes your departure from skz was handled badly, yes toxic fans made your life hell, but you have and will continue to come out stronger. We love you, and will always support you. Sing your music loudly and with pride.

It hurts knowing that there will be people who still don't understand Woojin's perspective. I'm glad that I have found this special little place. I will always support you and what you do! I absolutely love your voice and your style of singing! 🐻💙

I don't see why he us being hated , he wanted to break the silence, and have a new start for his own career , he just wanted to make sure he is honest about the past that's all , and no one should be hated for apologizing

I'm neutral about Woojin but I'm glad he apologized to SKZ members and at the end of the day, no one deserves this amount of hate, hope you're okay Woojin 💜

Our precious is back and I hope he will be well taken care of. Please treat WooJin with kindness care and respect. He is an absolute sweetheart, angel and talented artist. One of the best vocalist in K-pop. ❤

No matter what, he just have my respect and support. All stay we should do that, let the past in the past.

I can’t believe that there is still people hating on him. Like honestly grow up. All of the people who hate on him for ‘ruining stray kids’ are so immature cause like i know stray kids had to redo choreography, songs and etc but like cmon now he apologized now. The past is the past. Leave it at that.

All I know is, i hope Woojin is able to be able to move forward and make his dreams come true. I hope he got the help he needed because all that must have been utterly traumatizing for everyone involved. I truly truly hope he has the support he needs to continue forward, because Lord knows this industry is not an easy one. I just hope as he pursues his dreams he will continue to be ok and have people who will be there for him every step of the way and I hope no drama is drummed up.

The hairstyle takes us back in time, he is so adorable!

Woojin, don't be sorry, be strong and let time handle everything. Even though you didn't stay with the group, I love and support you. You are a person who deserves the best and all the support. I feel sad because you feel it. I am with you, my star 💙

I feel like whenever his name is mentioned on the internet, the comments section turn into a warzone like, I know it's sensitive to some of you but just chill fr

What you’re saying is right woojin. This is who you are and you should not apologize for choosing yourself. Say sorry to the past, but keep on dreaming. We love you❤️

Me molesta q la gente tenga q comparar la situación de woojin con la situación de diferentes personas del grupo de skz, si el decidió su salud frente a todo, como fandom (stay) deberíamos apoyar a cada artista por su lado y no hacerlo quedar como el malo de la historia solo pq decidió lo mejor para el. Se q no todas las stays somos asi y espero q algún día esas stays tengan empatía y logren entender q a pesar de q muchos pasen por las mismas situaciones, siempre se va a reaccionar diferente. Espero q woojin siga brillando y cada vez más esté cerca a su objetivo. Como stay y como persona le deseo lo mejor a esta gran persona 💕.

“Quiero ser un artista que empatice y traiga consuelo con su música".. Esa parte me gustó mucho, porque gracias a tu música he salido adelante, en mis momentos más difíciles. Tus letras son hermosas y que decir de tu voz.. eres espectacular! Te quiero mucho y ánimo que lo mejor está por venir! 🌻✨

We’re rooting for you Woojin, you deserve success as much as anyone else so keep going, the sound you are crafting for yourself is what will propel you to greater heights!!🫶🏾🫶🏾🔥🔥

Woojin, you don't need to apologize, you didn't commit any crime or anything like that and being a stayer from the beginning, I miss you a lot

I started crying :( I’m a stay since the survival show (at that time we didn’t have a fandom name) I always thought that they were meant to be one, y’all were like older brothers for me, i grew up with stray kids for 6 years. So After you left i was shocked, confused and sad at the same time. I tried to understand, but my mind was full of different thoughts why this happened. There were people who said that you beat your ex-members up and were mean to them. Some said it was because stray kids were the one being mean and disrespectful to you. People also made up ridiculous rumors that it was your parents telling you to leave. I knew it was none of them, but what I didn’t know was, why you left. I never expected you ever to really open up, even tho i really hoped you’d do one day. I’ll support you forever Woojin. As a member of Stray kids or a Solo artist ! You are special Woojin, don’t let the people irritate you. You are hard working, nice, polite, talented, handsome and just all in one special 💗 Please continue making music for us Woojin, KEEP GOING !~

Watching this video made me have a lump in my throat and an emptiness in my stomach, I want to cry and if I had Woojin around I would want to hug him with all my strength and tell him that it's not his fault and that he doesn't have to apologize.

No debes una disculpa mi niño, eres el ser más hermoso que existe te amamos como eres. Los que te hicieron sentir mal a ti te deben una disculpa, mereces lo más bonito de este mundo ❤

You didn't do anything to apologize for, it was just evil.Love you woojin❤️‍🩹

Woojin, little baby. You've been overwhelmed by everyone's wrong words. You have dealt with false accusations. You have faced the hatred of some. But you've always stayed strong. You didn't give up. You did not abandon those who loved you. Even if you saw people trying to get you to leave the group, you didn't care. You've worked, you've worked for us, you've worked for yourself. You did it, my angel. Did. I'm proud of you. And I love you so much. And I always will. You deserve the best of everything. ❤❤❤

I LOVE this man, in my heart I knew that he left for mental health issues. And it is clear that this apology was meant for SKZ, he feels like he hurt them for leaving so abruptly. I want to apologize on behalf of all the "stays" that hate on him for rumors and assumptions. Bless his heart for coming forward and speaking his mind. I'll continue to be a Woojin stan for a long long time

There are many people who understand you, you don't have to apologize. After all, leaving a group is NOT a reason to hate someone for your entire life. Those people are wrong, and you know it

I WANT YOU BACK AGAIN😭😭😭 HE DOESN'T DESERVE THE THINGS HE HAS BEEN THROUGH

Woojin, please do not apologize, but please do not regret it either. It is true that we are still sad about your departure, but that does not mean that we hate you returning to them or meeting them. Please just live your life, and if you want to see them or meet them, this is good for everyone. We just want to see the nine of you again, even if it is... Just a coincidence

We all care and love you Woojin!!! 화이팅!!!! ❤🫰🏻🫶🏻 You were the first one I ever saw on the internet…I cried so much than ever when I heard you left a long time ago…

Que alegría sentí al mirar mi celular y que mostraba una notificación tuya, al verlo pensando que escucharía una canción, encontré tus pensamientos donde te disculpas. Mucha gente te hizo daño a tu corazón, sólo por envidia y rabia y esto fué dónde te saliste de ese grupo musical, se que no fué lo mejor para ellos, pero si no habrías renunciado no te habría conocido, porque sólo así te vi brillar, me encanta tú musica y tu persona, te sigo hace muy poco, porque por casualidad buscando en RU-vid encontré una canción tuya y de ahí no he dejado de escucharte todos los días tus temas, nunca pensé escuchar música de un cantante asiático y tú lo lograstes ya que soy de América del sur, del sur de Chile. Te doy fuerza y sigue adelante porque no necesitas hacer nada para que te apoyemos porque lo tienes todo para ser un buen cantante. Seguiré escuchan dote todos los días porque definitivamente tienes otro Fans que te quiere mucho. Mucho éxito. Cuenta siempre conmigo.

Whatever happened is in the past. From now on, he will be known for his name and hardwork, not his past. He must remember that he is unique, no other is there like him...

I have been a fan since day one. I have believed in, supported and trusted in him since day one. Was my bias from day one. I will continue to follow, believe in, support and trust in him through whatever comes his way and whatever comes from him. ❤

Never thought I’d see a video like this so soon

Those of us who trust in you, we are here! We support you Woojin! ❤️🇲🇽 (04.22 ⏳️)

even if this person left the group specifically before the comeback, even if he released this video as banter on April 1st. This does not give you the right to insult him, threaten him and humiliate him. Just ignore him if you don't like him that much. But we don’t even know the reason for leaving

"As idols, every word they say is analyzed and criticized, that even just saying something true can be hated on and leave a metaphorical scar." It can also leave mental scars on idols.

You never have to apologize for something that was NOT your fault, you deserve an apology for all the "fans" who spread those false rumors. I hope to see you as a very successful soloist, that you can overcome and move forward, that the fans can overcome. Much success, I appreciate you very much. ❤

you don’t have to apologize for something that you felt was right. those people that continue to give you hate are just looking for attention. this new era of you is a fresh start. go all the way. do music your way, tell your story your way. you’re doing great and many of us are so proud of how far you’ve come. we will support you til the end. thank you for staying strong, not only for us but for yourself. go kim woojin!

Woojin, if you see this, I honestly tell myself from my heart, you have improved a lot as an artist and I will always support you with a lot of love, I admire you a lot for continuing to fight for your dreams. And I know that you were young and although your departure from the group hurt me and sometimes I think what it would be like if you had not left, I support you and I am glad that you left, because now you shine more and your music is your style I see you happier and more comfortable with this type of music, plus you got rid of a not very good company. And I pray that your company always makes you happy and never disrespects you. So thank you for everything, I want to continue seeing your progress and I will always support you. You are the best artist I have ever met, I love you and I wish you the best

He is matured now and I’m sure he has been thinking about this for a long time. He is ready to talk about it now and he has.

The world really is soo cruel. How could you hate this man? He is soo pure.

as someone who didn't find out that everything was a lie until a couple months ago, i am sorry Woojin. i was a new stay when everything happened so i didn't know a lot about him. i am sorry i didn't look more into it and find out the truth sooner. Woojin, i hope your future adventures show you lots of love and support.

Woojin don't worry at all. Keep releasing music whenever ypu want to, follow your dreams. We are with you

I came back to the fandom (STAY) after taking a break since Noeasy era, and I've been thinking about Woojin lately especially that it's his birthday today. Woojin, on behalf of all the Stays and those that sent you the ungodly amount of hate you got during the time you were being pinned allegations on, I'm sorry. You didn't have to go through that, and I'm happy you're so much better now. You don't have to apologize for something that was out of your hands, you didn't deserve it. I'm glad you've seen better days now:) Stay strong, Kim Woojin! Happy birthday

my heart is broken, I love u sm, Woojin 😭❤️‍🩹

Oh Woojin… we will always we by your side ❤

Those “stays” that are spreading hatred about Woojin need to grow up, no one should be saying any bad things about the situation, or putting Woojin down for doing what he thought was right especially when we don’t know much about what happened. Let Woojin be who he wants to be. (Just so you know I’m a stay myself and It’s not all stays)

God knows tht you are a good person. You will be successful, I love you Woojin-ah!

Mind you, this apology is for the circus owners not the clowns.

Woojin did not deserve the treatment he received and shame on anyone who participated. We support you Woojin stay strong.

You did nothing wrong, Woojin. And I will support you as long as I live.

I've been a fan since they were 9. Even after he left, I continued to support him and will continue to do so 🐻 Woojin, know that your real fans never doubted you for a second. We're always here for you 🩵

This is heartbreaking. As a predebut Stay I never understood the hate everyone threw at Woojin. He made the best decision for himself and I have really enjoyed his songs as a soloist. Still dream is beautiful and i enjoy listening to it all the time.

se soy la única aquí que habla español y que casi nadie me va a entender pero, wooji eres una gran persona con un corazón tan grande que la persona mas buena del mundo o del universo, a tenido jamás. ＞︿＜

I’ll support Woojin forever. CUBS will support him and that’s the only thing that matters now~

Woojin no le debes ninguna disculpa a nadie, las personas que no entienden lo que pasaste y que tuviste que tomar una decisión difícil estan en su propia burbuja de pensamientos y mentiras, perefieren seguir basando su vida en un rumor de hace años que ya fue desmentido en vez de simplemente aceptar la verdad. Siempre que estoy en internet y me aparece un video tuyo le dejo comentarios lindos, cuando veo que alguien empieza a desinformar a la gente, inmediatamente la corrijo y trato de que entienda la verdad. Me estresa el hecho que no entre por la cabeza de las personas que no deberían empezar a criticar sin siquiera haberse informado, esa gente debria pedir una disculpa a ti por todo lo que te hizo pasar. Woojin eres una persona muy importante para mi y para todos los Cubs, siempre te apoyaremos en todo lo que hagas, te defenderemos de todas esas personas que solo vienen a odiar sin sentido.

Woojin, it's so, so nice to see you! There's an old saying "the two shall pass" basically meaning it's a tough time but you'll pull thru just fine! Fighting! 👏👏👏👍

as a stay, i never even felt offended by woojin's leave. i understand that it was for personal reasons and to fix his situation back then. he apologized. so why keep hating him? i never did bc he's also a human being. skz wouldn't want us to be hating on woojin bc he's probably made a space in their hearts, even if it was for a short time, so JUST DON'T. woojinie deserves better although i dont stan him

ウジン色んな意見はあると思うけど、本人の口から真っ直ぐと伝えてくれてありがとう。 私は、my growing painsを聴いた時に、ウジンがあの気持ちを抱えて去ったのだと思ったし、去った後も一人で闘ってるのだと思いました。何より、私自身が動きたくても動き出せないもどかしさや苦しさをありのまま表現してくれた音楽とウジンの歌声に本当に救われました。 ウジンが後悔していないならそれでいいと思うし、私はグループにいたら作れなかった楽曲もあると思うので、ありがたく思っています。スキズもみんな辛かったと思うけど、ウジン本人も大きな覚悟をもって決断したということを、ウジンに対して怒っているstayにもわかって欲しいです。 思っても仕方ないけれど、どうか本人に伝わるように酷い言葉をかけないであげてください。 あとは、ともにデビューした皆がお互いを素直に称えあって共によろこびあえる日々が来れば1番幸せです。これからも大好きです。 (ものすごく個人的な意見なので、気分を悪くされた方は申し訳ございません。)

I was just a casual listener who gave his music a chance solely because I felt bad for what befell him. But the more music of him I listen to, the more I am captivated to genuinely support him. His music just speaks to me a lot. I will support you, Kim Woojin. Keep going and you'll go to your flowery path someday

He was a victim of bullying and he still apologized woojin we love u so much!

Woojin good luck in your career I hope you're happy and healthy and achieve many more things this year ily so much and I really hope your comeback goes well Fighting ✊🏻❤
