On June 4, FANTAGIO confirmed that a new memorial site for Moonbin will be erected this week.
“We fully empathize with AROHA’s wishes to honor Moonbin a while longer,” the statement read. “Therefore, after long and careful discussion with the bereaved family, we have prepared an external memorial space so that AROHA who always send unsparing love can greet Moonbin for a little while longer.”
“Although Moonbin’s religion is not Buddhism, at the request of the bereaved family, we have prepared the “Moon’s Space” at an area in Gukcheongsa Temple at Namhansangseong, and [the memorial place] will run long-term starting from June 7, 2023, at 5:30 a.m. KST.”
“It may be very uncomfortable because the road to Gukcheongsa is uphill and narrow, but we sincerely hope that it becomes a space that AROHA can comfortably visit anytime and feel at least a little soothed and comforted.”

FANTAGIO also asked fans to be mindful of what they leave at the memorial site.
“We would be grateful if you please refrain from leaving food and floral tributes and [only leave] letters and notes,” the statement added.
“We fully understand that they are for Moonbin, but the Buddhist temple is located in the mountains, so it is difficult to preserve them intact due to insects and debris.”
The agency further shared that there is a plan to install a board so fans can attach notes. The letters will be collected regularly and stored properly.
In related news, Cha Eunwoo previously paid tribute to Moonbin by covering his favorite 10cm song.
