But even that seems to be misunderstood now. I'm not trying to justify myself or avoid blame. If you felt I was trying to, I'm sorry. I truly don't know what actions I should take from here,' he wrote. 'Would it help if I stepped away?' He ended the message with more questions for his fans, showing how torn he feels about what to do next. 'That's why I want to know… Not just based on what I think in my head, but what Monbebes truly want. Would it help even a little if I stopped communicating for a while and stepped away, or would that just cause more misunderstanding and make things worse? Would it be better for me to stay by your side even if it leads to new misunderstandings?' Minhyuk, who made his debut with MONSTA X in 2015, resumed his activities last October after completing his mandatory military service. Amazing story! Wow! Haha, thanks! ReplyForward
