💛: “ I won't say much.

Hyun hyung, I love you. Thank you for being born.

Happy birthday to our gorgeous diva, Hyun!

You're such a fascinating person who appeared in my life.

To me, you're unlike anyone I've ever met before.

That's how I felt when I first met you, and I think I still feel the same way now.

Please stay that wonderfully fascinating person to me forever.

That way, my life will never lose its fun. hehe

I really admire how you always give your best and never hold back when it comes to putting in effort.

But please don't push yourself too hard.

Your health comes first! Don't break yourself.

🩷: To. The one and only person in this world,

my precious Wumuti.

It's already been 1310 days since we first met, and it still amazes me that we're promoting in the same group together. Looking back, it almost feels like we were destined to meet again through that TV program.

To be honest, I think the Rui I am today exists because you were by my side during the hardest time of my life. 🥹

That's why I really, truly wanted to tell you thank you.

I may not be the perfect younger brother, but I'll keep working hard and growing so that one day I can become a big tree you can lean on whenever you're having a hard time. So please don't try to carry everything on your own, and I hope you won't keep all your stress to yourself either..!

Since today is your birthday, I hope you have a day that's full of happiness and joy. Today especially, I hope you can let go of all your worries and fully feel the love of everyone who cares about you.

I also hope that all the days ahead are filled with even more smiles, that everything you wish to accomplish comes true one by one, and that you always stay healthy and happy.

And once again, I want to say this: thank you so much for choosing me.

Because you chose me, I've been able to make so many precious memories, and I've learned and grown so much. The time we've spent walking this path together has been an incredible gift to me. I'll keep doing my best to be a good younger brother by your side.

💙: To. My one and only million roses,

to our one and only Wumuti hyung,

Well then, happy birthday to today's birthday star, Mr. Wumuti~~~~~~~ It's me, Hyun, your biggest fan.

If all of your overflowing charm had been honey, you could've become the world's greatest beekeeper without question. Wumuti hyung is someone incredibly precious in the world I live in, and if I ever write my autobiography someday, I honestly think I could fill the entire chapter about my twenties with nothing but stories about you.

To be honest, I'm not very good at making promises about the future or saying, "Let's definitely do this someday." But with you, hyung… I want to try.

So let's simply keep living our everyday lives, like we're sharing an exchange diary with each other. Without asking for anything grand, let's just make it safely through each day, and when we finally reach the last page, let's promise to lock it together. 🫶

Lastly, happy birthday once again.

Thank you for being my one and only leader and my one and only oldest hyung for life. I'm sure I'll keep saying it so often that your ears get tired of hearing it, but I'll say it one more time anyway.

Thank you, and happy birthday!
