Early this morning, he posted a long message to celebrate the 1st anniversary of their debut.
Personally, this part stood out to me:
"I realized we don't need to shoot up like a rocket. There have been tough moments in this year, but what's more important is learning and overcoming them."
"Today, I recommend the song titled 'A Summer Night's Dream'~ㅎㅎ It's a song that I like. Good night~~~~😌"
Heeju-ya, it's already been over a year since we met. :)
I couldn’t show everything from this past year, but I brought a few moments we can remember togetherㅎㅎ
There was a thing where we sent messages to each other, and yesterday, I got to see for the first time what they had written.
To be honest, when I was writing mine, I couldn’t really think of anything to say besides ‘fighting'ㅋㅋㅋ
We spend time together every day... So I just jokingly wrote ‘fighting'ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
But reading the messages from my Hyungs, even though they were short, it made me feel a little strange all of a sudden.
It’s already been over a year since we’ve been active as RIIZE, and I feel like we’ve drifted away from the title of 'rookies'?
I used to wonder what it would be like if we had fans, or what it would be like to have our own concerts.
Now we’ve reached the point where we’re winning first place as rookies on music shows etc, I realized that we made our dreams come true one by one with BRIIZE.
We’ve been talking about that a lot amongst ourselves recently.
I remember looking at the schedule before starting our fancon tour and being shocked, like, 'Can we really pull this off?!'
But now we’ve almost made it to the end... We did it, didn’t we??ㅎㅎㅎㅎ
Of course, there’s still a long way to go for RIIZE, but I think we succeeded in achieving our overall goal for the year: growing and realizing our dreams.
I realized we don’t need to shoot up like a rocket. There were tough moments during the year, but learning and overcoming them is more important.
Once we finish the finale concert we’re preparing hard for, and with the year-end award shows coming up, we’ll have more missions ahead.
It feels like we’ve come full circleㅋㅋㅋ
I feel like I’m rambling, so to conclude: BRIIZE!! Let’s keep going together! Let’s keep rising together!!
And finally, to my Hyungs, you’ve worked hard for the past year. It really is 'fighting'ㅋㅋ
Let’s all shout fighting together. RIIZE, we rise with BRIIZE 🙂↕️😇🤭🫶🧡
He also shared photos and videos from September last year when they debuted to September this year.
I'm ending this post with a swimming video that fans would enjoyㅋㅋ

-His Korean has become much more natural.
-Aww, baby.

-Why does this make me feel so emotional?ㅠㅠ
-Maknae that is kind and full of loveㅠㅠㅠ
-Who’s Heeju? I'm a muggle, so I don’t know.
-Wow, even though he’s young, he’s so thoughtful, kind, and sensitive. Especially the part about not needing to shoot straight up like a rocket, it feels comforting and empowering. Truly moving.
-He writes so well, and it’s nice how he cares for his fans.
