Aw man… I don’t want to do Instagram because I’m tired of it these days… People keep asking me if something happened if I don’t upload; I’m eating well and living well.🤪
It’s already April 🌱 Spring has come and my hair has grown messy, so I went to the hair salon and had a lot of lunch and dinner 😁

I couldn’t contact you or treat you to a good meal, and time flew by. Honestly, I was scared that you were very sick, and I once avoided contacting you because of my cowardice. I’m sorry. Please forgive me for being a fool… I’m writing this in hopes that you won’t be lonely during your passing, but I don’t know if I’m doing the right thing. Pyeong, please don’t be sick there, smile more, and be happy. Let’s meet again next time. I’m sorry, Pyeong. I love you, Pyeong.

— Lee Sun Jin

Noona. We said we’d walk our dogs together. I didn’t even know you were sick. I’m sorry…. I was so busy living my life that I always just responded to your texts, and never texted you first. To my warm and kind Pyeong noona, I hope you enjoy walks in a good place and live happily.

— Heo Jung Min
