WINWIN Weibo & Instagram Update
Hello everyone, I'm WINWIN, Dong Sicheng.
From 2016 to 2026, ten years have passed. I wanted to sincerely write these words as a proper reflection on the past decade of my life.
Over these ten years, I went from being a trainee to a member of NCT 127, and then a member of WayV. Along the way, I’m truly grateful to have met and gotten to know so many people. I’ve been very fortunate, everyone I’ve met has been warm and sincere.
The photos I’ve taken over the past ten years take up most of my phone’s storage. Every now and then, I come across old photos from years ago. Each one holds a story, bringing back countless memories. Looking back, although there were moments of exhaustion and hardship, and days filled with setbacks, what remains in my heart are even more moments of happiness, gratitude, and joy. Standing in the echoes of those memories, every small yet genuine ray of light has become my greatest source of strength. Every step counted, and together they shaped the person I am today.
I would like to thank every teacher, senior, and staff member at the company. Thank you for your guidance and for giving the young, inexperienced me a place to begin. Because of you, I was able to debut as part of a group, travel around the world, and meet and connect with the people who love us. As an SM artist, I was able to stand on stage for the first time and experience having stage lights of my own. Without this opportunity, perhaps many people would never have known me, and I would never have met so many people who care about me. These ten years will remain precious memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
Over the years, I’ve gradually become clearer about the path I want to pursue. Finding a balance between acting and performing on stage, while dedicating myself to creating works that truly belong to me. After careful consideration and sincere discussions, the company and I have reached a mutual agreement. I wholeheartedly wish SM, every team, and all the members nothing but the best and continued success in the future.
Next, I want to sincerely say thank you to everyone who has stayed by my side and to everyone who has supported me throughout this journey.
For all these years, no matter the distance or where you were in the world, you’ve walked every step of this journey with me and witnessed every moment I stood on stage. I remember every light you held up for us, and I remember how you embraced my imperfections. I may not always be good with words, but I’ve treasured every bit of your love and support in my heart. I hope these past ten years have been a warm, beautiful, and unforgettable memory, not only for me, but for all of you as well.
The road ahead is still long. I will carry everything I’ve gained and all the love I’ve received as I continue moving forward with sincerity. I’ll keep working hard, stay true to my original aspirations, and become an even better WINWIN. And to everyone reading this letter, I wish you peace, happiness, and that all your wishes come true.
