"Oppa it's me, your one & only precious little sister, Sua! I came too! I've cried too much so I'll stop now! I'm gonna smile a lot now. I'm going to be happy while doing the things I want to do. I hope you'll be in peace & happy there, You have to watch over me and see if your little sister is doing well here! I'm going to live well and work as hard as you do. don't stop me. Even when it gets hard, I'll often come to whine to oppa so you have to accept it. You've worked hard this whole time ♡ I love you so much and I'm oppa's little sister forever. Moon siblings forever."

[JINJIN]

"Bin! It's jinjin hyung! A lot of people came. You promised me, right? to live with a smile. Just like you told me, i'm trying to live with a smile like you did. I'm going to start practicing for my musical again and also to eat my meals. I will take care of your mom, dad, and sua so don't worry. I love you so much my little brother"

I feel like we're listening to it rather well!!! Hehe So now rest easily.

So come by our dreams too, once for each person. You were very reliable, I was thankful and I'm sorry. Ah I'm cancelling saying sorry! Because I know oppa's probably not gonna like it!

[EUNWOO]

"Bin, it's a night I miss you, you bad guy. i couldn't sleep so i went on a walk and came here together with sanha. are you sleeping well? why do i miss and regret all things i did with you, even small things… be hundreds and hundreds times happier in the moon land. i'll take responsibility for taking care of things you left behind so don't worry. you've worked hard. I love you and i'm sorry, my friend."

[SANHA]

"Hyung are you doing well? I miss you a lot.. I can still see you in front of my eyes. I know if I'm like this you'll scold me, but please let it slide for a little bit. As you said, I'll make sure to be happy, I promise. A lot, I love you a lot, and I love you..."

[MINGYU]

"Bin, hi. I got to visit your company, thanks to you. The biggest memory for me is when we talked together until morning. Do you remember! To u who had so many thoughts and worries.. all I could say was there's no idol who does everything like you.. That's all. I'll work harder!! Don't be sick now and smile more. I'm sorry. You did well, my friend. When we meet next time, I'll buy you soju with fish cake soup! Please cheer for your members from afar. And my favorite song is waterfall ♡ let's be happy, my friend."

mtl: companies’ overall success despite if it's literal or behind the scenes — now vs in 5 years

NOW

most successful

bighit music will achieve new, unexpected things that will benefit the company well. since the achievement/s in question are quite unexpected, it can be related to tommorow x together’s recent collaboration with anitta. that will make the group more desired for collaborations and other activities. if that happens to be for v or jungkook (assuming he’ll release album in the near future), the same thing applies to one of the boys. (judgement, the high priestess + with permission: 4 of wands)

aomg is doing well, everything is going good to them and their artists. although quiter tham the rest, they’re doing just fine in their pace (knight of cups)

koz is trying to manifest something that will make the company rise. there might be offer that will come towards their current group or zico/dvwn. whatever will come to the company will bring significant change. (page of cups)

yg entertainment might be aware of new, possible opportunities in the future. however, i’m not sure for where this is all about since the options are many: it can be for treasure, it can be for blackpink, it can be for babymonster, it can be for akmu, it can be for something totally different that’s not related to their groups at all. (the high priestess + with permission: knight of cups, the hierophant)

dsp media is in early stages of rebranding gavy nj OR debuting young posse alongside with beats entertainment… looks like it’s the first one (page of wands) the second thing is already spoiled

right now fnc is in good hands that can help the company to blossom. the potential is there, i don’t see any actions (queens of cups and pentacles, clarifying card: ace of pentacles)

similar to fnc, mystic story currently have 2 strong people that can influence the subsidiary very good and make the company shine more. the intentions however can be building currently and they’re not finalized yet as both people might have disagreements for some topics. both of them are here for the sake of the company’s future so they should discuss everything very carefully (queens of pentacles and swords + with permission (the moon in the bottom): 2 of cups, 2 of pentacles, 3 of wands, clarifying card: 8 of swords rx)

fantagio is currently “chill” about something they work on. they hope it will work well. (temperance, clarifying card: the star)

wakeone is eager to debut the upcoming girl group coming from i-land 2 OR is working very excitingly on one of their groups’ upcoming comeback. (if the energy is about the second option, that might be zb1 as they’re ready with kep1er and they’re uploading their results now) they’re very persistent to work the things out. (ace of wands, 5 of pentacles rx)

there’s important desicion that starship entertainment has to make in regards of investment/money. it could be because of kakao’s desicion to sell the subsidiary for ai purposes, especially when they have ive. currently starship can afford to not be subsidiary anymore, but they’re cautious whether it’s worth it or not. (2 of pentacles, queen of pentacles)

sm entertainment seems to be “collabing” with some people that will benefit the company in the furure. alternatively, the company might celebrate riize’s debut that happened recently and the surrounding buzz around the boys. the surrounding energy isn’t that memorable, it’s just the company doing their job. (3 of cups)

modhaus seems to be aware of something, possibly behind the scenes related and possibly related to artms and loona. they’re very dedicated to make everything work. (the devil rx, clarifying card: knight of pentacles)

oddly enough ctdenm has the same cards as modhaus, just in reverse places. (knight of pentacles, the devil rx)

cube have gotten over the worst - it looks like it’s related to pentagon’s contracts. despite if they have actually renewed fully/partially or not, they’ll continue like usual. there’s nothing worrying (10 of swords rx, king of pentacles)

there seemed to be an issue with source music in the past that recently have been resolved, possibly related to le sserafim’s comeback. the company seems to be in the early stages for it (3 of swords rx, page of wands)

rbw made compromise, possibly to dsp media. they tried to make them change their mind for something, possibly related again to gavy nj OR young posse such as dsp scrapping reviving gavy nj or young posse to debut with wm or rbw trainees and screw beats entertainment (5 of wands rx, clarifying card: 3 of cups)

wm entertainment is changing their plans for their upcoming girl group. (6 of cups rx, clarifying card: the magician)

yuehua’s korean division seems to be stagnant. therefore, their future seems to be uncertain for some reason. (10 of wands rx, the fool)

pledis is currently working with someone (probably unrelated to the coorporation). however, they have to be careful as them working together can have drastic consequences. (the lovers, clarifying card: 7 of swords rx)

although s2 is doing quiiiite better compared to the past, they expected a lot more for kiss of life’s debut, they expected more sales and more relevance for the girls’ debut. (the world, 9 of cups rx)

currently belift is in situation where they have no choice but to choose creative freedom over materealistic things such as money, offers and etc. as there can be change in the company’s staff (the hermit)

ador has to be cautious of what they want to do. they seem to do multiple things in once however it can backfire, so one step by one step is the best choice. (the chariot rx)

pnation is trying to fight over something that currently makes psy’s company working more chaotic than usual. because of the current issue the company has everything is blocked/delayed. (9 of wands, clarifying card: ace of wands rx)

despite of jyp entertainment working hard, they’re in short of money. unfortunately, the company seems to save as much as possible because of possible losses. it happened with the time and they lost bigger amount of money than allowed. unless there are changes, the company will stay in similar situation. (4 of pentacles)

both 143 and woolim are in situations that find something unfulfilling and lose bigger amount of money than expected. (for woolim possibly one or all of their groups while for 143 possibly limelight) unfortunately, they have to give up trying to open new doors for something else. (8 of cups, clarifying card: temperance)

highup are in the verge of destroying something they’ve builded for quite a while. (might be unrelated to stayc but perhaps with connections they’ve done) (ace of pentacles rx)

ist entertainment should be careful of being scammed or of artists who want to leave the company as the creative freedom there is limited due to the merges. the company is focused on the money rather than their artists’ freedom and it will catch them sooner or later (king of cups rx)

kq has to be very careful as deception is on the horizon. from the ateez career reading check until 2025, it looks like someone from their company’s staff will do it instead of the boys. whatever they are doing will come to an end and it’s time for needed, for big, for important changes. this is definitely behind the scenes related. (7 of swords, death)

least successful

AFTER 5 YEARS

most successful

143 entertaiment will be basically in their heaven zone both with the company's staff and their artists by the time. they could have good offers by that time (4 of wands)

pnation will make their dreams come true. there will be (an) achievement/s! (9 of cups, clarifying card: the world)

mystic story will have beneficial offer by that time. if they debut new group in 5 years, it can be directed towards them (ace of pentacles)

wm will do very well and will win a lot of money, but with many work from the company's side (ace of cups and 10 of cups, clarifying card: 5 of pentacles rx)

kq will do very, very good, they will be very ambitious, possibly for upcoming group (queen of wands)

starship might debut someone as a soloist or new group in 5 years. it can do very well OR they will win a lot of money in that time due to them accepting an activity or sth else (ace of swords)

aomg will do also very good, i see someone traveling such as local/continent or world tour and they might even sold out their dates (8 of pentacles, 3 of wands)

jyp entertaiment can do quite well, however in my opinion their energy is instable because of some reasons: 1) the empress can be very individual card (in my opinion) as well as very beneficial in their industry, so the possibilities here in my opinion for the empress are two - many individual gigs from their idols or the creativity from their idols will rise more than ever. however 2) 2 of cups can indicate many collaborations OR the company becoming a subsidiary of another such as hybe or kakao (although rbw is possible too, it's more unlikely. hybe's chairman and jype's chairman WERE classmates and si hyuk was working with jype in the past while kakao is one of the richest companies of all in south korea. i personally think if the subsidiary thing happens, it will be with hybe for friendship reasons) 3) the bottom card is ace of pentacles, so many money is involved by that time and assuming how the groups are currently doing: twice as a group seems to weaken, 2pm is doing their things, boystory is promoting in china and idqk how is their relevance there, itzy's popularity isn't like before, day6 are also doing their things + they have members in the military, right?, niziu(ik they're japanese group but imo it aligns internationally; i see their sales in japan are around 200k almost every time so yeah idk if that's good or not), xdinary heroes and nmixx aren't that relevant in south korea and even internationally to some extent (compared to twice and skz, ik xdinary heroes and nmixx have fans but it's simply not enough imo) so stray kids and individual members of the other groups such as nayeon and some others are doing the best but it's not enough for now it looks like both options are possible; i personally think jype can become a subsidiary, possibly of hybe, and only then the creative freedom for the company will rise (the empress, 2 of cups + clarifying card: ace of pentacles)

fantagio might finally have just enough money to give someone to debut a group, such as a member in one of their current groups or someone in their staff who will have a raise in the future (strength, 3 of pentacles)

modhaus will finally reunite loona! but wait, someone's missing.. where's chuu*? (8 of cups, additional card: 4 of wands + clarifying card: the empress; *i might be wrong but i felt her)

i would say that belift will work as usual. there isn't something specific (4 of cups rx, 8 of pentacles)

ist entertaiment might receive more fame because of one of their groups OR of one of the idols from one of their groups. they won't be prepared at all and the company might be critized because of it. (6 of wands, clarifying card: page of swords)

koz might receive an offer in 5 years that can make them moving on from something. if boynextdoor disbands by that time, i see them debuting new group around that time. (knight of cups, clarifying card: 6 of swords)

woolim entertaiment's energy is instable. i can see something that happens in their favor but something else had to be sacrifised such as much more money, someone else as trainee or something that's different. they might have viral moment that will come but at cost that they will don't know what to do. similar as ist entertaiment, woolim will receive something that will be unexcepted and they won't know what to do to keep the increasing relevance. (9 of cups, the hanged man, 6 of wands, 8 of wands, page of swords + clarifying card: 2 of swords rx)

if big hit music continues to work like how they usually do, they'll reach may more things. (the hermit + additional card: 3 of wands + clarifying card: ace of cups)

although yg entertaiment might be motivated and ambitious, possibly for upcoming ... girl group?, they shouldn't fuck them all over again as it happens for the group before 2ne1, for 2ne1, for blackpink and for babymonster now. the chariot can be a knife with 2 blades and although they're very happy with how it works out, they have to be cautious as they had to be in the past, even more. (the chariot, clarifying card: ace of cups)

highup will be stagnant around that time. (ace of wands rx, clarifying card: 4 of cups rx)

pledis will work as usual. however, it seems that something can happen in less than 5 years that will shake them (4 of cups rx)

ador might receive scandal around that time. other than that, it’s stagnant with them too (the tower, clarifying card: 9 of swords rx)

yuehua's korean division seems to work on new group, possibly on boy group (king of swords)

i can say what will happen in 5 years for source music. same action, new people - le sserafim disbands, new group comes (judgement, clarifying card: the hierophant)

fnc might make a deal with someone (it can be collaboration, it can be sth else) but it can be dangerous. they have to be careful (the lovers, clarifying card: page of swords)

unfortunately, sme will be.. different. either they will merge with someone or they will be subsidiary. this will happen apparently in less than 5 years but it will be fresh. nothing else (5 of cups rx, clarifying card: 6 of swords)

wakeone will be in similar situation as jyp entertaiment in the present and will have losses. they might debut a group around that time just to try to return their loans at that time (4 of pentacles, clarifying card: the star)

dsp might bankrupt around that time, however i am not sure if they'll get through this difficult time (the hanged man rx, clarifying card: 9 of cups)

rbw might be overwhelmed because of dsp media. it looks like they will get everything from them nonetheless (10 of wands rx + temperance)

s2 might stop to function as a company because of a scandal related to some sort of violence/cheating/married man. alternatively, they might be in similar situation as dsp media with the difference they don't have any ideas for upcoming group/s. however, i doubt this. (king of cups rx, clarifying card: ace of wands rx)

least successful

personally i am not sure what will happen to ctdenm but if they happen to merge with modhaus (because of loona) or taking different route, they will try to fight over something that currently makes them working more chaotic than usual. their future is blocked/delayed from me to see. (9 of wands, clarifying card: ace of wands rx + i am aware the cards are the same as pnation for now but their situation bc of loona makes it difficult for me to see if they are in the same path with modhaus for me)

uncertain

this was asked on 15th september 2023

due to the limit of 30 hashtags, i had no choice but to not add some of them. if you don’t see specific company, their parent company is added instead.

[embracethefeels]

My thoughts are with the family and friends of Moonbin. May he find peace and know that he was so loved. After all that he has gone through, I hope he is able to find happiness in wherever he goes. May his friends and family feel comforted and also find peace during these dark times.

If anyone wants to talk, my inbox is always open. Please know that no matter what you feel and think, you are also loved and your feelings are valid. You’re never alone and it’s ok to feel what you’re feeling.

Eunwoo as a bf

Read at your own discretion

He's very aloof in his long-term relationships, not very aware of his partner's desires/needs. I see him just tuning out when his partner is talking about their life and daily activities. He usually has one steady partner that is able to provide him with a lot for his career and his luxuries. Then he has other "interests" that he pursues like different people he wants to "conquer". He seems love more as a business deal or a game where it's like the hunter and the prey.

He thoroughly sees dating as like a hunt and he enjoys the thrill of the chase. Once the game is over and his "prey" has fallen for him fully, Eunwoo likes challenges and likes those that are not bewitched by his appearance at first. He finds pleasure/satisfaction in making someone fall for him.

I see Eunwoo enjoying the "first times" with different partners and then usually after that 1 incident, he gets bored and then moves onto the next. He enjoys the thrill in s*x like risky situations where someone might discover them or his partner is embarrassed in public.

Eunwoo values himself above everyone else and believes he is the most handsome out there. He is only attracted to someone who is on par with him in terms of beauty. He also likes people who are highly popular and well-liked among his peers, so it seems like he's the winner when he is able to win over their heart. He likes keeping a journal/diary of his "conquests" and prefers photographs over videos.

Eunwoo, if he marries, will marry to boost his image/reputation. His marriage partner would be someone who comes from a wealthy family or is well-established in their line of work. This partner is supposed to be there to help his life become better financially and to help increase his status in life. He'll likely continue to search for others even after marriage.

[indigomovn]

The news of Moonbin’s passing is shocking, unexpected, and heartbreaking. Today, we’ve lost a beautiful, sweet, and kind soul but he will forever shine in the night sky. We will miss you Moonbin.

Sending my condolences to his family, friends, and fans. Remember to prioritise your mental health and take breaks from social media.

[astrofantagiomusic]

I haven't properly updated this blog in years. I don't have any time to run my fan accounts.

Despite this, I've kept my eye on Astro because they used to be one of my ults. It's a shame I've never gotten to see them live.

I've come out of my shell to wish Rocky all the best for the future.

I'll always remember Astro as 6 :)

Fantagio Announces New Long-Term Memorial Space For ASTRO’s Moonbin

Fantagio has announced a new memorial space honoring ASTRO’s Moonbin at Gukcheongsa Temple.

On June 4, ASTRO’s agency Fantagio shared the following statement regarding Moonbin’s new memorial space:

This is Fantagio.

First, we express our deep gratitude to AROHA (ASTRO’s official fan club) for personally visiting the Sky Park until the 49th day since the late Moonbin’s passing, reminiscing of Moonbin’s most shining moments together and sharing sorrow while providing comfort.

We fully empathize with AROHA’s wishes to honor Moonbin a while longer. Therefore, after long and careful discussion with the bereaved family, we have prepared an external memorial space so that AROHA who always send unsparing love can greet Moonbin for a little while longer. Although Moonbin’s religion is not Buddhism, at the request of the bereaved family, we have prepared the “Moon’s Space” at an area in Gukcheongsa Temple at Namhansangseong, and [the memorial place] will run long-term starting from June 7, 2023 at 5:30 a.m. KST. It may be very uncomfortable because the road to Gukcheongsa is uphill and narrow, but we sincerely hope that it becomes a space that AROHA can comfortably visit anytime and feel at least a little soothed and comforted.

1. Information on operating hours

Gukcheongsa is open from 5:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. However, please make sure to visit at 5:30 a.m. at the earliest and leave by 6:30 p.m. Furthermore, the parking lot inside Gukcheongsa will be closed from 6 p.m, and entry by car will not be possible, so please arrive by at least 5:30 p.m. to AROHA who [are arriving] on their own vehicles.

2. Directions

Address to Namhansangseong Gukcheongsa: 105 Namhansangseong-ro 780 gil, Namhansangseong-myeon, Gwangju City, Gyeonggi Province.

As Gukcheongsa is a Buddhist temple located within the mountains of Namhansangseon, please understand there many be many inconveniences in transportation and travel. Furthermore, it is a rough hiking trail that you have to walk, so we recommend you to bring water in advance. Foreign visitors are expected to experience various inconveniences when using taxis, so please refrain from using taxis.

3. Information on refraining from leaving floral tribute

We would be grateful if you please refrain from leaving food and floral tributes and [only leave] letters and notes. We fully understand that they are for Moonbin, but the Buddhist temple is located in the mountains, so it is difficult to preserve them intact due to insects and debris. We plan on installing a board on one side of the Moon’s Space so that AROHA can attach notes, and we are going to collect them regularly and store them all valuably. We would be grateful if you could place the letters inside the letterbox placed at the Moon’s Space.

We express our deep gratitude to AROHAs who are always with ASTRO.

Previously, Fantagio relocated the memorial space honoring Moonbin to the rooftop of the company building. The current memorial space will be open until June 6.

Rest in peace, Moonbin.
