Letter posting on a night with a beautiful moonlight.

First, I would like to express my regret for delivering such an unfortunate news to all BABYs, who have loved and cherished B.A.P until now.

I am aware of all of your feelings, and I am taking serious responsibility and accepting all those feelings.

Just know that that’s how important and precious it was to me.

From our debut to now, no words can describe how much of a strength the members and BABYs was to me. Now that I look back, I think I was just a small, incapable person, but the members and you fans have helped me to become a bigger and better artist. I’m forever in debt.

I plan to hold my gratitude in my heart forever, and I will never forget.

Thank you for sending me much cheers and encouragement.

Please take care of my B.A.P members and B.A.P, whom I love very much. I will continue to do music and walk forward as a leader of B.A.P, whenever and wherever I go.

I love you and respect you, always.
Sincerely, Bang Yong-Guk
