News that brought tears to the eyes of fans both in Korea and abroad has been shared. EXID member HyeLin recently conveyed her condolences for the late producer and composer Shinsadong Tiger through her social media. In her post, HyeLin expressed her deep connection and longing for the deceased in a calm and honest manner.
HyeLin posted a photo with Shinsadong Tiger and a lengthy message on her social media account, starting with, “Since those days when I danced and sang in a school uniform in Gwangju, I regret never having asked my warm and playful brother how he was doing.” She then reminisced about her memories with the deceased, sharing how she took his presence for granted, how precious it was, and how she came to appreciate him, albeit too late.
HyeLin also expressed her apologies for not being able to offer the same support and encouragement to him that she readily gave to others when they were going through tough times. Wishing for Shinsadong Tiger’s peace, HyeLin hoped, “May you rest comfortably there, doing the music you love and only doing what you want.”
In 2014, Shinsadong Tiger and EXID met as singer and producer, creating hit songs together such as ‘Up & Down’, ‘Ah Yeah’, and ‘Hot Pink’. His work received widespread love, making his name well-known.
Alongside HyeLin, another EXID member, LE, also shared her condolences on her social media with a handwritten letter. Her short but powerful message, “To the person I disliked, the person I’m thankful for, I hope you’re at peace”, touched the hearts of fans.
This incident reminds us of the importance of expressing our feelings to our loved ones and the preciousness of life. It underscores the need to cherish every moment we have together, rather than dwelling on irreversible regrets. As we wish for Shinsadong Tiger’s eternal peace, his musical legacy will be remembered forever.
