Apink's Eunji bids farewell to her Radio show with a heartfelt message to listeners

Posted by princekrish3,204 pts Saturday, February 26, 2022

Recently, Apink's Eunji announced that she will be stepping down as a radio DJ for KBS Cool FM's "Jung Eun-ji's Gayo Plaza," which she hosted daily for nearly three years.

On February 25th, she held her last live broadcast(viewable radio) for the show, where she bid an emotional farewell to the listeners and her fans.

On the broadcast, the radio producers played an emotional message from Eunji's mother as a surprise for her, " My daughter whom I love, I wanted to send in my well wishes for your radio, but I think I forgot to do so last year. Being able to hear my daughter's voice on the radio amidst your busy schedule, I really liked it. I enjoyed it and was happy. Now that I am unable to hear my daughter's voice every day on the radio, I'm really upset. You've worked really, really hard all this while for the radio amidst your busy schedules. In the future, through your other activities, I will continue watching my pretty daughter, and I will give you lots of support. And also, to the listeners of Jung Eunji's Music Plaza, thank you so much for always tuning in. Hope that you stay happy and healthy. Thank you"

At the end of the radio, as her closing remarks, Eunji read out a heartful letter that she wrote for all her fans and listeners of the radio show. 

Her letter, which expressed her honest feelings, read as follows:

When I first became a singer and attended one of the radios I listened to as a child, I thought to myself, "What would it be like if I were a DJ?" Looking at DJs up closely, I found them even cooler.

I never thought I would be a DJ, which is why when I first got invited to be one, I was half excited, half scared. It's a position worth being envious about, and I, who is still young, thought about whether I would able to bring my own flavor to the station and convey delicious, fun, and warm stories to viewers daily, just like the cool DJs that I've loved since I was young. 


But thanks to the viewers of Music Plaza who welcomed me with open arms, the staff members who have journeyed along with me, as well as the guests that visited Music Plaza, I, who is a novice DJ, received a lot of nicknames and also have received love from everyone. 


For consoling me that making mistakes is normal, it really feels like we've built a community of friendship that shares problems with one another, that joke with one another. 


It seems like this has become a habit of mine. Now, around noon, even if I have a different schedule, my energy changes as if I was broadcasting live on the radio. The feeling of saying farewell to my precious friends, it's regretful and upsetting. But, I'm trying to grow up so that I can talk with you a little more leisurely. Let me continue to grow in my experiences, and I look forward to meeting you again. 


Thank you, everyone, for being with me when I was 28 years old, 29 years old, and my30s. Being able to listen to your stories, it made me happy. Thanks to the listeners, I was able to get through the confusing and difficult days with a smile.


I hope that we will meet again. Till then, please stay healthy and I will miss you. Thank you, I'll miss you, for real.
