Full translation of #NI_KI’s message on his live last July 30:
To me, concerts exist so that everyone can be happy and have a great time together. I want to see everyone. I want to take care of everyone in the venue. I want to make sure even the ENGENEs in the far corners, who might not be able to see us very well, feel included. I want to look after every single ENGENE.
But sometimes… well, not even sometimes. Wherever we go, there are always a few people who really want us to notice only them.
And they don’t jump. They don’t really enjoy the concert. It doesn’t feel like they’re having fun. Honestly, that kind of lowers the energy a little. You know what I mean?
My heart is in wanting everyone to have fun together and wanting to take care of everyone equally. So when there are people who seem more focused on getting noticed, I can’t help but feel a little disappointed.
There are so many ENGENEs who do an amazing job lifting the atmosphere and making the concert even more enjoyable. But when situations like that happen, it sometimes feels like they take away from the concert experience a little. After all, the whole point is for all of us to be happy together, right?
So if you’ve ever had those thoughts, I understand. I really do. It’s natural for people to want to be noticed. I get that. But all you have to do is enjoy yourself.
Our responsibility is to put on the best performance we can. It’s our job to fill those two hours with energy, dance our hardest, sing our best, and create an unforgettable show. That’s the responsibility we carry.
What feels a little unfortunate is when other ENGENEs end up feeling self-conscious because of other people’s actions. Everyone is already having such a great time, so I just think it would be nice if we could all enjoy it together. You know what I mean, right?
I really do understand. But if you think about it from our perspective, from the perspective of the people on stage…
Like I said, filming is totally fine. I have no problem with that at all.
What we want to see is everyone dancing, jumping, waving their heads, cheering, and enjoying themselves. We want to see ENGENEs being happy. That’s what makes us happy. We don’t want to see people just standing there. Right? That’s how it is.
Other than those few cases, though, everyone has looked so genuinely happy, and I love seeing that. ENGENEs’ happiness is always our top priority.
Especially throughout this South American and North American tour, ENGENEs have looked so happy. Seeing that has made me so happy too. It really warms my heart.
We’ve had everyone come to see us, from really little kids to fans of all ages. I’m so grateful for that.
And actually, we’ve been on tour for over three years now. But being able to go on a world tour like this isn’t something that’s common, or rather, something that should ever be taken for granted, right? So I’m really very grateful for it.
No matter how difficult things get, the fact that we’ve been able to continue a world tour for over three years now is something I’m really thankful for. Oakland was also a place we last visited during FATE PLUS. So when I think about that, it means we’re coming back after two and a half years.
And knowing that you waited for us for those two and a half years… you probably could only see us through screens during that time. Thinking about that actually made me feel really sorry. If it were up to me, I’d want to stay in the same space with you all and keep you in my eyes for as long as possible. But since that’s realistically impossible, I’m approaching these concerts with the mindset that we should cherish and remember these moments well while we’re here.
So, ENGENEs, thank you so so much. I really love you so much.
❌ he talked about the flowers
✅ he never mentioned them at all
❌ he did the live directly after that concert
✅ the live was 4 days later, after a different concert date. In fact 3 concerts have passed
❌ what he said made her a target
✅ he never mention anyone specific, everything was very generic and countless idols have expressed similar sentiments.
If you have any human decency at all, stop using a tragedy to further your hate agenda that you’ve been carrying for years. He’s been a victim of your cyberbuIIying since 14 years old. Constantly twisting and making up lies about his words and actions and misaligning his character.
Just like that poor girl who you thought your words wouldn’t hurt, behind the name plate of a group, he is just a human with feelings who experiences grief and sadness like anyone else. You never know when you’ll drive someone to the edge, and you’re slashing word daggers at someone who may already be having a hard time.
It’s easy and convenient to blame a fandom or idol, but cyberbuIIying is a much broader issue across society, and it’s evident even right now since many people from other fandoms who don’t even have the facts right are all chiming in to say the worse about someone they don’t even know. It’s hypocrisy at its peak to preach about cyberbuIIying while engaging in cyberbuIIying.
Mental health is a complicated and sensitive topic, and it’s one I wish everyone would take more seriously. Idols, fans, or anyone - Get help and seek help if you find yourself with unhealthy thoughts. Have compassion and empathy for others, but also have compassion for yourself.
Don’t rely on any one person for your happiness. That is too much of a burden to place on anyone. They don’t live in your shoes 24/7. No one can save anyone at every moment. I hope that everyone can learn to love themselves more. If you really love someone, the greatest gift you can give to your loved ones is to treat yourself with love because then they don’t need to worry.
Please, treat your heart with kindness and protect it fiercely. Even if you feel all alone in the moment sometimes, you matter so much to someone. So please hold on. Light will come to find you in the dark, just as you are the light to someone else’s darknesses. You are loved more than you know.
Por eso me da mucho coraje que haya armys criticando las palabras de Ni-ki, cuando nuestros favs opinan similar a Ni-ki, si esto hubiera pasado con un army, también estarían culpando a BTS y eso está completamente mal, los idols no son culpables de las cosas que hacen sus fans.
Soy engene y army y al ver que hay armys que le están tirando odio a Ni-ki y diciendo que él incentivo el bullying a Mina por lo que comento en live, déjenme recordarles que Tae, Nam y Jk también se pronunciaron sobre como les gustaria que los fans disfruten los conciertos +
NADA DE LO QUE DIJO NI-KI ESTUVO MAL, decirle a tus fans como te gustaría que disfruten tu concierto es totalmente aceptable, esas palabras no fueron una invitación para que acosaran a Mina, los idols no tienen porque ser culpables de la gente psicópata que haya en su fandom+

Jw ya se disculpo con el país que se tenía que disculpar, queda en las personas de ese país el aceptar o no, no es ustedes gringas putas ni en absolutamente nadie que esté incitando el odio a jw desde un país que no sea Kazajistán.
el hecho de que haya esperado a hacer el live para que las engenes de kazajistán lo puedan ver habla muchísimo de el como persona, si pensaron que jungwon es el tipo de persona que no reconoce sus errores y los deja pasar, se equivocaron, es el ser más honesto y bueno que existe
tuvimos a enhypen por casi una semana aquí. amaron nuestra cultura, comida, energía, y nos dijeron que se sintieron como en casa, que aquí dejaron su corazón y prometieron regresar lo más pronto posible a su natal méxico 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
