During the latest episode of the show, the two ATEEZ members were reading messages from fans as part of the program. There was one message, however, that was unexpectedly emotional, and made Hongjoong get noticeably choked up while reading it.
The fan shared that they had seriously injured their leg a while back, and had been going to rehab in order to regain their ability to walk. Through the difficulties they faced during this process, it was the fan’s desire to see ATEEZ’s members and be able to attend their concert that drove them to push themselves through the hardship and regain their ability to walk without assistance.
They consider ATEEZ a life savior to them and their family, and are determined to one day jump up and down during one of the group’s concerts!

In response to the heart-warming message, Hongjoong shared his feelings about how he and the rest of ATEEZ give strength to their fans without even knowing it. He said that he’ll always strive to be the kind of person who can give others this kind of strength, and that he hopes to see this ATINY jumping up and down at one of their concerts with his own two eyes soon!
