In his letter, the artiste, whose full name is Hwang Chan-sung, reminisced with his fans, known as Hottest, about his journey in the entertainment industry, which he started at age 17.
He also spoke about his future wife whom he described as someone he’s been in a relationship with for a long time. He explained that they were preparing and planning for marriage after his military discharge when the “blessing of a new life came to us earlier than expected” and thus they are now planning to get married as early as the beginning of 2022.
