Hello, this is Yoo Ara. I hope you’re well. I’m writing this because I’m afraid some people may think I am dead… All of a sudden, I was often tired, and my condition had worsened. By chance, I took a test, and I was diagnosed with cancer. I was told I needed surgery, so we had an emergency procedure, and I am now recuperating while taking medicine. I’ve gotten much better. As some of you may know, it wasn’t easy getting in contact with me. I felt so bad because some people were disappointed. I hope that those around me and those who love me will understand. I am going to do my best not to be stressed and recuperate this year. I hope you guys stay healthy and always beware of the cold! Be careful of the summer heat, and I will do my best to update you guys often.
