Hello, nctzen ㅠㅠ .
As of today, it’s been exactly 10 years since my debut. I just wanted to come and say thank you once again for these amazing 10 years.

These days, I’ve been taking some time to organize things and prepare for what’s aheadㅠ. I actually haven’t been checking social media at all and have just been hearing news through people around me. When I saw that nctzen sent support trucks and posted so many positive hashtags and messages, I was so surprised, touched, overwhelmed, and incredibly thankful ㅠ. Just as much as nctzen cheer for me and think of me, I’ll work hard to prepare and come back soon as a new version of Mark who can give strength to nctzen again. 🥺

Once again, I’m so sorry and apologize to nczten and everyone who were hurt or upset because of me. And more than anything, I’m truly so thankful, and I’ll come again next time. Congratulations once again from the bottom of my heart on NCT’s 10th anniversary. 💚💚

FROM #텐 #TEN 💌

“hello czennies and wayzennies, this is ten.

i spent a long time thinking about how to begin this message. i wondered if there might be a better way to share this, and thought about it over and over again, but in the end, i feel sorry and regretful that i’m delivering it like this in writing. so today, i want to share my true feelings honestly.

moving forward, i will continue spending time with you as ten of nct and wayv. at the same time, i’m planning to take on a new challenge as a solo artist.

since debuting in 2016 with nct u, the time i’ve spent promoting with nct and wayv and meeting all of you has been filled with truly precious and happy memories. leaving thailand at a young age to come to korea, there were many unfamiliar and scary moments, but all the staff at sm sincerely took care of me and always stood by my side.

above all, i believe i’m able to be who i am today because you, who have stayed by my side through every moment, were there. thank you, truly.

as time passed and i now find myself approaching 30, i began asking myself once again, “what kind of person do i want to be from now on?” and “what kind of music and what side of myself do i want to show?”

after much thought, i came to want to try new challenges in a new environment. after many conversations with the members and the staff at sm, and after deep consideration, i decided to conclude my exclusive contract with the company.

i know very well that this wasn’t an easy choice, and that it could greatly change the direction of my life moving forward. but i will take responsibility for my decision and do my best so that i won’t have any regrets.

i sincerely thank the members who have always supported me so i could dream even bigger, and i’m also deeply grateful to everyone at sm who has trusted me and been with me until now.

and to czennies and weishennies, who have always believed in me and loved me no matter what, because of you, i was able to come this far.

i still don’t fully know what kind of side of myself i’ll be able to show you in the future, but i want to walk that path together with you.

will you continue to be with me?

nct, wayv, and ten, i will come back to you with an even better version of myself, unchanged at heart.

thank you always. and i love you very much.

🐻‍ Honestly, Mark hyung was more of a brother to me than anyone else. Having spent 13 years together, I relied on him so much. I think that’s why many of you were even more worried, knowing the bond we shared. Thank you so deeply for that concern.

As soon as the article came out, I sent him a long text. I told him, 'Everything you’ve done for NCT will pave the way for our future. And in return, your time with us will help you move forward too. So, give it your all and don't regret your choice.' That’s what I wanted to tell him.

FROM MARK LEE 💌
#MARK #마크

“hello, this is mark. hi, czennies…

i debuted with nct u on april 9, 2016, and now that it’s april 2026, ten whole years have already passed. during those ten years, so many things happened, we performed on so many stages, and most of all, i think we made countless memories together. i know there are czennies who have supported me since the sm rookies days, so if i include that time, it’s actually been over ten years.

how have the past 10+ years been for you, czennies…? for me, i think i’ve truly, truly been nothing but happy.

now that ten years have passed, and since you’ve made me happy every single day without fail throughout that long time, i wanted to personally write and share with you my new decision and the beginning of a new chapter.
i know this may feel very sudden to everyone… but actually, since my trainee days maybe even before that i’ve always had a dream in my heart.

i wanted to walk around busking on the streets with just an acoustic guitar, and I loved writing in english so much that I even dreamed of becoming a writer. i was too young to fully understand and clearly picture that dream back then, but because i loved music and performing, i auditioned in canada 14 years ago, and started my musical path at sm, beginning with nct.

because my beginning was with sm and nct, i was able to get to know myself more and find the best version of myself. i’m truly just filled with gratitude.

through nct, it feels like i’ve experienced the sky, the land, the sea, and the mountains at their fullest. after spending ten years seeing and experiencing the world in the best way, and going on such an incredible journey, i naturally began to think about what the greatest dream i could have is what the greatest purpose and calling i could have as a person named mark.

as my 10-year contract comes to an end, i awakened all the senses i had kept inside me and thought deeply for a long time. eventually, i became curious about what the complete and true form of that dream really looks like, and i felt a strong desire to fully dive into it.

what will my music be? what kind of fruit will i bear? and how can i bring that into the world… i truly want to find those answers and achieve them.

i talked a lot with each of the members, and it honestly brings me to tears just thinking about it every single one of them told me they support me.

i feel endlessly sorry, but more than anything, deeply grateful.

to the older members who see me as their cute younger brother, and to the younger ones who see me as a leader, i want to say thank you again, so, so much.

to all the members who listened closely to my concerns, understood my heart, thought about me, shared their opinions, and had such meaningful conversations with me, i’m truly thankful and i love you all.

we’ve been on the same ship for over ten years and had an incredible journey together. i’ve always loved going underwater, and now that i’m saying i want to swim on my own, the members are supporting even my deep dive with love. i will continue to support and love them as well.

since i was selected through a global audition in 2012, i want to sincerely thank all the teachers from the training team, the company staff, managers, directors, executives, and every department, everyone who has raised me to who I am today.

my beginning was sm, nct, and czennies. no matter what kind of music i create moving forward, i will never forget where i started.

but… no matter how big of a decision i’ve made, i fully understand that it doesn’t ease everyone’s worries, concerns, or pain just because i see this as a personal challenge.

by announcing this big decision for a new chapter in my life, i know that for czennies who have loved me as “NCT’s Mark,” for markfs, and for the public, this change can feel like a huge shock and even a source of hurt. i also know that this handwritten letter alone cannot soften all of that.”

this was my literal dream since i was 13 years old. fuck you @sm
