Shortly after, Soobin shared a handwritten letter to MOA. He expressed his gratitude and love for his members and fans.
Hello everyone, this is Soobin. First, we finished off our promotions with such great support a few days ago, so I’m sorry for bringing you this sudden news.
Since my debut, I’ve been able to grow every year thanks to the members and MOAs. So many happy moments have made me the person I am today.
There were times when I wasn’t feeling the best, but I was able to overcome it thanks to the members and MOA. Thank you.
After much thought, I decided it was time to take a little break to recuperate so that I could continue to spend a long time together with everyone.
Although my heart was heavy thinking that this decision would make it hard for everyone, I am thankful to Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Kai, who after much discussion, have supported my decision. I am very sorry and thankful to them.
The happiness of MOA is always my top priority. Although I am sad that I am bringing sad news to MOAs who have only given me love and happiness, I will work hard to recover so that you don’t have to wait too long. I will return with a healthier image! I love you always, MOA.

Now, TXT member Taehyun has provided an update concerning Soobin.
Taehyun held a live broadcast via Weverse today. He revealed that he contacted Soobin but was worried about disturbing Soobin’s recovery. Yet, Soobin teased him and reminded him that Beomgyu texts him every day.
I contacted him and… I don’t say things like ‘I miss you,’ so Soobin hyung was like, ‘You can’t even tell your hyung that you miss him,’ so I said that I’m worried that if I contact you every day, I’ll disturb your relaxing break and that you might not feel like you’re resting because we’re mostly together while we work, and we’re really close hyung-dongsaeng family and also people that work together. He’s soundly on break, and I thought it might disturb him, so I texted him little by little at intervals of time, but he was like, ‘Beomgyu texts me every day, you punk.’ So, I was like, ‘Hey! It’s something I did after thinking it out!’
