Training soldier Lee Donghae’s letter to ELF:

Hi ELF!! ♥ 

I’m Super Junior’s Donghae, I am now Recruit Donghae who is fulfilling my military duty.^^ The weather has gotten a lot colder right?? You didn’t fall sick right?

Because you’ve always been together beside us, now that we’re seperated for a while, I already start to miss you all a lot!! I miss the stage, I miss the member, I miss ELF. I enlisted on 15 October 2015 on my birthday and it’s already 21st October 2015. When I enlisted, I did a parade and a lot of ELF came and saw me off and seeing your tears flowing, my heart hurt. I hope that time passes quickly so that I can go back to you guys. I’m also living well while using the things that ELF sent. I’ve also been reading the internet letters that comes everyday thankful and well. Whenever I’m feeling tired here, I’ll take them out, read them and gain strength. I’ve always met ELF at fanmeetings, concerts, fansigns and talked a lot. Even though we need to save our conversations for a while for 1 year and 9 months, from 14th July 2017 onwards, I hope we can take out all of our saved conversations and talk throughout the night!!^^ I like writting letters.^^ I will write letters to ELF often from now on!! It seems like I’ve said thank you and I love you to ELF a lot but after coming here, those words become more precious and I want to say them more!! I regretted not saying more to you and expressing more when I was beside you all. When we meet again next time, let’s say it more to each other, express it more to each other, okay??^^ Now Shindong-hyung, Sungmin-hyung, Eunhyukkie, me (has already enlisted) and Siwon will be enlisting soon, Super Junior will come back as even more healthy, capable and handsome men so ELF!! Wait for SuJu!! Please give the members who are beside ELF now lots of love and protect them!!^^ I already look forward to 2019, 2018!! Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Ryeowook, Kyuhyun members I love you. ELF, sincerely, I love you ^_^ don’t fall sick!! Stay healthy!
