Ji Han, I hope you will be happy as you have gone to a good place. Yesterday, we were supposed to be filming together all day, but after hearing the news, all of us gathered at your mortuary and didn’t say anything for a while and just sat in despair. I know very well just how hard you worked and how much you wanted to do well, and I’m just so frustrated and sad that they took you so quickly.

I cried for a long time at the regret of not saying something more, a word of support, and for not taking care of you after hearing that you would go home and tell your parents that you received a compliment from me. The whole team thinks of you and will work even harder for you. I hope you are at peace now.

To all the people who became stars through this tragedy, may you all rest in peace.

— Im Soo Hyang
