“I’m just going to believe I can’t get in contact with you because you’re busy doing the things and eating the things you wanted to and that you’ll always be with us,” JinJin added.

“I miss when you would always tell me when you looked at me that it made you smile and how you’d always like whatever I said and play the most jokes on me. I regret not taking your jokes better or laughing more.”

He wrote, “I think of your smiling face, and I can’t help but laugh along with you.”

JinJin also asked Moon Bin to visit him in his dreams and shared an update about his activities. He concluded his letter on a hopeful note.

“Bin, my younger brother, who I love so much, let’s laugh a lot,” he wrote. “Let’s laugh and have happy thoughts and happy news, and please don’t be hurt, and let’s be happy. I love you, my little brother. Goodnight.”

Moon Bin passed away on April 19, 2023. He was found in his apartment in Gangnam. He is survived by his parents and younger sister BILLLIE rapper Moon Sua, who served as chief mourner at Moonbin’s funeral.
