【Announcement】 As this marks the end of our group activities, please bear with me for a slightly longer message. My heart raced as I dedicated myself entirely to this group for two and a half years, prioritising it above all else. I was thrilled to be able to tell people, "I'm an artist." I caused my family so much trouble, constantly leaving for practice. I was utterly absorbed. I never skipped a single day; I truly loved BLACK DIAMOND. However, I have decided to part ways here. No matter how sincerely one approaches things, sometimes one's attitude or manner of involvement can be perceived in unexpected ways. Precisely because I felt there was still more I could do, there were moments that made me reflect on how I should be. Within any environment or situation, everyone holds slightly different perspectives. Precisely because of this, I resolved to accept everything and let go. I cannot say much more at present, but I hope conclusions and outcomes will emerge in the future ahead. For me, words are important in the sense of lyrics; they can become someone's hope for living, or they can be something that breaks things. 　 The songs I wish to sing are songs that can liberate someone's suffering, songs that can appeal to the world's injustices. In this era, a woman who can clearly express her own will is my ideal, and the artist I aspire to be. I want to decide my own way of life and my own message. Dreaming is also about facing reality head-on. It was my fans, colleagues, friends, and family who made me realise this. To guide this one life towards the form of happiness I believe in, I resolved to move on to the next stage. The slightly expensive red suitcase I'd bought new for overseas travel remained there, brand new. It felt as though God had told me to pack my nearly twenty years of passion for music into that suitcase and set off down a different path. To all the fans who came with such fervent passion, To my family who supported me, To my friends who cheered me on, To all the kind-hearted professionals who stood by me, To the members and teachers who shared the stage with me, honing our skills together – Each and every one of you was my most precious treasure. Thank you so very much. I would be delighted if you could support my new endeavours too.
