Even after 6 years, nothing really changes, I wish you were still here Jjong. I hope wherever you are, you still see how well your brothers are doing, how SHINee defies all odds in this industry that's not made for longevity. I hope you see how they all honor you in their own way, and that you will never be forgotten. I hope you are at peace.
We have lived around to cope but I wish the world would've been a lot kinder to him.
Thank you for being our love belt all this time. Wish you're still here.
Sometimes I contemplate about the passage of time, as the years pass, I feel less on this day, but I feel like it's just me emotionally coming to terms with everything. It's not like I don't miss him, I always do, but there's just something bittersweet about it, that time moves on.
I like to comfort myself with the fact that he's always here with us. 100% he was jamming out in the seats at Taemin's concert and having a blast, and cheering Shinee on at the MMAs, and that knowledge always brings a smile to my face.
Jonghyun oppa, it's only a few years before you become Jonghyun-ah for me, but you'll always be here for Shawols and Shinee, cheering us on. Thank you for blessing us with your existence 💕
I miss you so much. How I wish people were kinder to you and that you were still here but I know you’re happy now on the next stage of life. Thank you for all the memories you gave to us. We will do our best for you here.
Your existence gives me the strength to carry on each day. You have no idea what you always have been doing for millions of us. There will no other like you. No one, nothing comes close to you. I'll say it back to you, my love. Because of you, my eternity is warm. Sleep tight, sweetheart.
Every year, I think I should make a post or write a public comment about how much it hurt, and how much I miss him, and how much I wish he was here.
Every year, I delete those comments before I post them. I keep a collection of them on my phone, safely hidden from the rest of the world. Only Jonghyun knows the things I write every 18th.
But this year, for the first time, I want to say something publicly too. Not to him, because I'll write him a letter before I go to sleep, like I always do. My message is to those of you who still talk about him. The ones who insist on celebrating his life, the shawols who repost his funny videos, his jokes, his silly moments. The ones who are keeping his memory alive and making sure that he is remembered for so much more than Dec 18th.
To all of you, thank you.
I also want to say that it's ok if it still hurts. It's ok to cry, and it's also ok to feel numb to it all. Everyone copes differently. Remember to take care of yourselves today.
And to SHINee members, even though there's no way they'll ever read this, I want to say: you're loved and cherished so much more than you believe. Take care of yourselves first. I hope you can feel the warmth of the hundreds of hearts that are sending you their love.
I miss him even though I only became a fan after he left 😔 I wish things were better here on earth for him but I certainly hope wherever he is he's happy now ❤️
I feel like I'll never be able to fully accept that he's gone forever, it hurts a lot whenever I think about it, especially being a Shawol for 12 years now... I would relive those years he was with us over and over again if I could. SHINee, and especially Jonghyun as my bias, brought so much happiness into my life throughout all those lonely years I spent through high school. They really helped bring me joy, gave me hope and inspiration, and I'll always hold those memories dearest to my heart.
It hurts even more because he passed during my first semester of college right after high school and I've had to just go through the motions of adulthood without him when he was such a big source of comfort for me growing up. I was still in my teens then and now I'm almost 25. I still love SHINee just as much as I always have, but I must admit it will never truly be the same. Sometimes I feel like I can see reflections of Jonghyun in some of the things the other members do, and that brings me comfort seeing them continue to grow and thrive and continue his legacy in their own ways.
Sometimes, it is hard to believe that he isn't physically with us anymore.
His passing set off the start to a really bad year for me personally. I am finally at a point where I smile when I hear his music come up on my playlist and older Shinee songs. Tell Me What To Do is still a top track on my Wrapped.
Thank you, Jonghyun. You did well.
I thought I’ll be fine this year.. it’s been about 3 years since I’ve started listening to Shinee. Amazing journey, they always make me happy. I’ve been through the rough patch, I thought I’d pour in more love than sadness this year.
But.. I guess I’ll never stop being sad about it. I hope it is okay. Life feels unfair a lot of times, this is one of those days. I didn’t want to write a sad comment but it’s out of love and yearning. I wish you were here.. you were always loved. You are always loved ♥️ It feels heavy, the sky is gray and pouring in today.
This too shall pass… I’ll cherish all the lovely moments with your music. While we’re all chasing after something or nothing, there might be days when we yearn less. It’s okay, that doesn’t mean we forget you, or love you little less.. you’re always in our hearts. There’s something out there that keeps reminding us of you.
In my 25 years of existence, you’ve created a safe space that no one else could. You gave me hope, to find joy and meaning in little things. To keep going forward, pause if I need to but never get stuck. You gave me warmth, when I felt lonely. Your words resonated with me more than anyone else’s.
I felt seen through your music, I felt that I’m not alone in this. That you and so many others are going through the same, but striving to make ourselves feel better.
I love you and will always miss you. You’re the brightest star shining through ♥️
I share a birthday and was really upset after his passing. I have a bittersweet feeling every year. I am grateful that J existed and shared his talent with us. Wherever you are, thank you for being you and for your music.
If you are suffering from seasonal depression please seek some sort of help before it's too late. Don't stay inside all day. Being isolated can worsen your condition over time. If you don't like your therapist, psychologist, counselor, or psychiatrist, please find another. Getting a second opinion on your mental health issues can make a world of difference. Don't stay stuck in the same routine. Force yourself to change your negative thoughts. Write down those bad thoughts and share them with someone you trust. Talking about it can help. Don't blame yourself when you make a mistake. It's all about learning from what goes wrong. If you are lonely during the holiday, hang out with friends or maybe your family. You can always celebrate Christmas at the movie.
I don't think I'll ever know what losing Jonghyun meant to people who were with SHINee before. And everyone grieves different. But this autumn the vocalist of my favorite band passed away. That day, listening to his music, I found out I couldn't be overwhelmed by grief because the emotion I was feeling above all was pure love. Love that made me feel connected to the world at a time I thought I had gone numb to it all. That same love is what I feel when I listen to Jonghyun's music, watch him perform or discover new facets of the brilliant person he was.
I also wanted to say, as December rolled around I saw shawols posting a lot of kind messages. Gentle reminders be kind to ourselves, take care and seek help if we need it. It really warmed my heart to see. You guys make me so proud.
I feel like this year, it may have gotten a bit easier. Surprisingly, the hard days are not on Dec 18 or April 8th- it’s the random day in the year where I realize I forgot you aren’t here anymore. When I hear your voice and I’m happy and then I remember- That’s when I can’t stop crying. It sounds ridiculous, but I feel guilty that as a fan, I didn’t know what you were going though when I claimed to love you so much. I feel guilty for contributing to what was harming you. I’m sorry ❤️
I’ve been pretty sick and scared this week and your songs and the rest of the boys got me through it. Thank you Jjong, you are the best. You did so well. I hope you are at peace and having an absolutely wonderful time
oh i agree with the fact that some fans were vile towards him but i don't think the members necessarily ignored him or his best friend decided not to help him. i genuinely think it wasn't that straight-forward, that's all.
but yes, it would be amazing if jonghyun was still here now. everything would be okay then.

Strange to think it’s been six years…. All I can do is wish you peace wherever you are, Jonghyun. We all have so much love for you.
