I am still in shock. I still can’t believe you are gone. Thank you for inspiring me to ride. Through On & Off, you inspired me to take riding lessons, and through my journey with horses, I met the one horse that I love with all my heart. He is a blessing, and I would never have experienced the joy had I not watched you learning to ride and being so kind with people and animals. So thank you, for enriching my life. Rest now, in peace, Hara.

Hara wasn't the kpop idol that I was the most interested in, but she was the one who left the deepest impression on me. More than anything, I remember how hard she worked, how she was always so positive and did her best with everyone in everything she did. I remember when I first got into kpop, I was stunned by her visuals the first time I watched 'Pretty Girl'. Afterwards, when I found other idols somehow more attractive, somehow I always noticed what she did and how much she improved. How she always made shows better by being there.

It's really tragic what she went through as someone who depended on public approval so much.

I can't pretend I didn't see it coming when I heard the news, though I think everyone was hoping that she had found her reasons to live. Thank you Hara, you left a deep impression and were a positive influence just by being who you were. You achieved a lot and brought a lot of people a lot of joy.
