Billlie's Sua updates her Instagram story for the first time after the loss of her late brother Moonbin

AKP STAFF

Billlie's Moon Sua, who has been largely inactive on her personal Instagram since her debut as a member of Billlie, has shared a new story update, her first online activity since the passing of her late brother, ASTRO member Moonbin.

On June 7 KST, Sua posted a short, black and white clip of her and her brother via her Instagram story. She wrote, "As rumored, Mr. Door-Frame-Moon's backside was as broad as a door frame and warm. I should've climbed on it some more when I had the chance. Next time I see you, give me more rides. My dearest, one and only brother. Still, always, and forever, I'll love you on and on. Don't be sick, be healthy, eat your meals, and be happy." 

The update comes exactly one day after the 49th day of the late Moonbin's passing (June 6 KST), which also marked the day that a new memorial space for the ASTRO member, prepared at Gukcheongsa Buddhist Temple by his family and his agency, was opened to the public. 

In the Buddhist tradition, families hold a ceremony on the 49th day after the passing of the deceased as it is believed that a spirit lingers in the realm of the dead for 49 days before moving onto the next realm. 

In light of the 49th day of Moonbin's passing, which fell on June 6 KST, many of the late idol's closest friends and loved ones, including all of the ASTRO members, dedicated farewell words once again via SNS or by leaving letters at the memorial space in Gukcheongsa.

Meanwhile, Moonbin's sister Sua has been on hiatus from her promotions as a member of Billlie since the unexpected passing of her brother on April 19. Then, last week, she was spotted in the audience at ASTRO member Jinjin's musical alongside other ASTRO members, smiling and showing support for her brother's group mate.

I can't imagine losing a sibling especially one that you're close with. Glad the Astro members are there for her as brothers.
