As fans know, ASTRO's Moonbin pαѕѕed away on April 19, 2023, at the age of 25. The sudden pαѕѕing of the male singer has ѕнσ¢кed and saddened the entire кσяєαn entertainment industry and domestic and international fan communities.
Moonbin was not only a talented artist with a warm voice and excellent dancing sкιℓℓs, but also a sincere and affectionate friend. Although he is no longer in this world, his memories will always live on in the hearts of those who love him.
This year, to commemorate Moonbin, artists close to him have come together to release a special song called Moon. The song features ASTRO members Cha Eun Woo, MJ, Jinjin, and Sanha, along with Moon Sua's sister (Billlie) - who always had special feelings for her brother.
In addition, close friends such as Seungkwan and DK (SEVENTEEN), SinB (VIVIZ) and many other artists also enthusiastically participated, creating a meaningful music product to commemorate the 2nd anniversary of the late idol's ∂єαтн.
After the song was released, many Kpop artists re-shared the song on their personal pages. RM, even in the military, is no exception!
Not only did he post the song on Instagram Stories, he also directly sent a sincere message of encouragement to Cha Eun Woo, who is reported to play key role in organizing the project by tagging him with the message: "You've worked hard".
Witnessing this action of RM, fans were even more moved. They also noticed the precious friendship between the BTS leader and his junior, the best friend of the youngest member Jungkook:
- crying this early in the morning is a crime
- cried when i saw joonie posting it, cried when i listened to it, or literally broke down. i stanned astro bad some years ago, and when the news about binie’s ∂єαтн came, tho i wasn’t stanning them anymore, it HIT and it still does the song is so beautiful. i miss him..
- Thank you my Namjoon. He comforts not only CEW but also fans
- I just cried remembering what today is to moonie and now seeing this really makes me cry again
- even namjoon loves moonbin. just know that he also has a good relationship with Jungkook's BFF too
- only they will understand what he went through :(
- Truly touching of him. my sweetheart namjoon
- I can't imagine how they feel about Moonbin's ∂єαтн. Just thinking about Namjoon sharing with us that years ago he also considered ending his life breaks my heart. There needs to be more awareness about this issue.
Previously, on the 1st anniversary of Moonbin's ∂єαтн, ASTRO members and friends had their own ways to express their condolences. Jinjin released a special song Fly (featuring Moonbin), SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan performed Dandelion, while Cha Eun Woo expressed his nostalgia through a cover of 10cm's Stalker.
This year, instead of individual releases, ASTRO members gathered Moonbin's close friends to create a tribute song together.
These songs are not only a tribute but also a reflection of their sincere feelings for their ∂є¢єαѕєd friend!
