A year has passed since the late MOONBIN, a member of the group ASTRO, left us.

He was found dead at his home in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, at around 8:10 pm on the 29th. His funeral was held privately by his family. He was 25 years old.
At the time of the sad news of MOONBIN's death, the management office Fantagio said, "MOONBIN suddenly left us and became a star in the sky.
I hope that the bereaved families, who are in great grief over this sudden tragic news, will be able to pay their respects to the deceased."
Following the sudden tragic news of the late Moonbin's death, his sister "Billlie" Moon Soo-ah has suspended her activities.
The sadness is doubled because they were siblings who had shown a close relationship since the late Moonbin. Moon Soo-ah said at the end of her late husband's death, "I laugh a lot now. I'm happy doing what I want to do. So I'm happy. ...
I hope you are happy and at peace there. I hope your sister is watching over you. I will live my life to the fullest for you. I love you."
Colleagues in the entertainment industry who were close friends of the late Moonbin took a long time to get over their grief.
VIVIZ's SinB, UMJI, and SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan were sad for a long time. Seungkwan said, "We were not embarrassed to say I love you to each other. We held each other until the end.
I can't express enough how good my friend Bin was, the person who comforted me. I'll be proud of him forever." SinB also said, "We've known each other for 18 years, so why are we embarrassed about each other?
I regret that I was never able to say a single nice thing to you. You were a great friend and a great source of strength to me, and I regret that."
In addition, many other celebrities, including UMJI, KWON HYUK, actress Mun KaYoung, and LESSERAFIM's Sakura, expressed their grief.
The public also mourned the loss of Moonbin, who had always shown a bright and cheerful image. Moonbin debuted as a member of the group ASTRO in 2016 and released numerous hit songs.
In addition to his musical activities, he also worked as an actor, appearing in "The Mermaid Prince: The Beginning" and "Eighteen Moments."
