On April 19th, ASTRO's Cha Eun Woo shared a heartfelt tribute to his late bandmate, Moonbin, on his social media. He posted the cover art of fellow ASTRO member Jinjin's newly released digital single, 'Fly'.

In his post, Eun Woo tagged both Moonbin and Jinjin's accounts, expressing his deep longing and love for Moonbin with the words, "I miss you and love you so much."

He further emphasized his feelings by adding a moon emoji, a symbol associated with Moonbin, making the sentiment even more touching.

'Fly' is a special song that Jinjin had a hand in both writing and composing. It serves as a precious gift to fans who are missing Moonbin and longing to see him.

What makes this song even more special is that it was a collaborative effort between Jinjin and Moonbin, and it even includes Moonbin's voice, making it a truly meaningful present for their fans.

Sadly, on the same date last year, Moonbin was found lifeless at his residence in Seoul. His manager discovered him and immediately called for emergency services. Despite being rushed to the hospital, Moonbin tragically passed away. He was only 25 years old.

Fantagio, the agency representing ASTRO, released a statement expressing their sorrow over the devastating news, "We are deeply saddened to share this heartbreaking news. On April 19, our beloved ASTRO member Moonbin left us too soon and became a star in the sky," announcing the untimely demise of Moonbin.

ChoA, former member of the girl group Crayon Pop, has bravely shared her ongoing battle with cervical cancer and her emotional journey.

On January 28, ChoA posted a heartfelt update on her social media, explaining her struggles. "I usually laugh, talk, and live my life as usual, but there are moments when I suddenly face a reality that isn’t like before, and it gets tough," she shared.

She went on to say, "Recently, something difficult happened, and in the past, I would have had a drink with my husband to shake it off. I really miss being able to do that."

ChoA admitted that she still can’t fully believe her diagnosis. "When I face the reality I’ve been avoiding, my heart that I’ve built up breaks down," she said. "But the life I’m living now, which I’m still enjoying, is something that someone else might be wishing for. I try to gather my thoughts again with gratitude."

She also expressed hope for the future, saying, "Lately, I dream of a day five years from now when I’ll be declared cancer-free and be able to have a drink with my husband after putting the kids to bed, after all the struggles. It’s been almost two years, so I believe the day I get that clean bill of health will come soon."

ChoA married a businessman in 2021, six years older than her. In October 2023, she revealed her cervical cancer diagnosis, sharing that she had been diagnosed during a routine check-up in her first year of marriage.

Despite everything, ChoA remains hopeful, noting that the cancer was smaller than expected during surgery, and she was able to preserve her fertility—a step closer to her dream of becoming a mother.
