On July 11, Joohoney posted a heartfelt handwritten letter on his fan cafe for his MONBEBEs. He first shared his worries about sharing the news because he didn’t know when the best time was. He also didn’t want fans to be upset at the recent MONSTA X fan concert.

I’ve been contemplating when would be the best time to tell you. I’m actually quite worried about how MONBEBE will feel since there’s not much time left. Even as I write this, I worry a lot. Because of this worry, I’ve thought about it a lot… Above all, I wanted MONBEBE to see me and enjoy themselves, smiling and being happy at the fan concert. And I wanted to do the same for you. That’s why I’m sharing this news today.

Joohoney reminded his fans that his leaving for the army isn’t the end of their story—it’s not a period but rather a comma. He emphasized that he would return cooler than before.

I’ll come back and show you an even more awesome side of me. As I mentioned earlier, I consider this time our comma. Instead of a period, it’s a brief moment of continuity leading to the next.

To. MONBEBE

Hello, my dear MONBEBE.
I feel like this year was super busy.
That means I spent more time with MONBEBE, and I’m sure we’ve gathered many memories together, right?
The positive smiles and happiness of MONBEBE, the countless lights you have created…
My heart, filled with all the love you have sent during the time we’ve spent together, is still full of happiness. Because the time I spend with my members and MONBEBE is incredibly precious and joyful to me, I felt the urge to spend this time entirely with all of you and share this news.
MONBEBE, I will be enlisting in the military on July 24th.
I’ve been contemplating when would be the best time to tell you. I’m actually quite worried about how MONBEBE will feel since there’s not much time left. Even as I write this, I worry a lot. Because of this worry, I’ve thought about it a lot… Above all, I wanted MONBEBE to see me and enjoy themselves, smiling and being happy at the fan concert. And I wanted to do the same for you. That’s why I’m sharing this news today.
I wish we had more time together, and I’m still concerned about the short time left, but since I’ve captured every single moment of MONBEBE being happy, I think I would deliver the news like this even if I could turn back time… After all, enlisting is something I need to do.
I will do well and come back courageously! Don’t worry because I won’t be gone forever. Promise me that every day, you’ll look up at the sky and think back on what I’ve done and remember Jooheon!! Got it??
Thanks to MONBEBE, I gain a lot of energy and feel free when I hear your voices singing along with me. I watched myself progress and had a self-monologue saying, “Don’t worry,” and “You will be happy,” and I wanted to tell myself and MONBEBE that I want each day to be better than yesterday. Don’t forget the passionate days we sweated together and the passionate days we spent together. If you forget those memories, I’ll going to be really sad… Got it? I’ll come back and show you an even more awesome side of me. As I mentioned earlier, I consider this time our comma. Instead of a period, it’s a brief moment of continuity leading to the next. I love you all day, I love you always, so in love with yourself. Thank you so much for showing me love. I love you, MONBEBE.

From, Jooheon (Joohoney)
