they say don’t get too attached. don’t let your happiness depend on these groups, because they leave, everything ends eventually. it’s all fleeting.
but how could i not, when they showed me what friendship really means.. growing up together, celebrating victories, carrying each other through failures. because ilichil, 7dream, nct.. they’re never just a group, they’re family.
mark’s letter made it clear: the care, the love, the deep understanding behind every choice, proving that they are real through and through.
and maybe that’s why i hold on so tightly, because even if it’s temporary, i’ve learned to find something beautiful in things that don’t last forever.
to love is to be hurt. it’s inevitable, inescapable even. but i would never trade the happiness they gave me.
i will never regret loving you, mark.
i will never regret being an nctzen.
i will continue to cheer you on. together as a group, and individually, wherever life takes you.
