본문

Former WINNER member Nam Tae Hyun, who previously was sentenced for illegally abusing drugs, posted a heartfelt message online.
In January, the court gave Nam a 1-year sentence, suspended for two, while ex-girlfriend Seo Eun Woo received a 10-month prison sentence, suspended for two. He was also ordered to be given 40 hours of drug rehabilitation and fined ₩550,000 KRW (~$409 USD).
Most recently, he updated fans on his status and his goals moving forward.
Hello, this is Nam Taehyun.
I have made a big mistake, but I am sincerely reflecting on and regretting every day. I want to apologize and thank you once again for your concern and curiosity.
After being discharged from the rehabilitation center, I got a space in the same building to continue to strengthen my effort to overcome my drug addiction. In this process, my heart and soul are slowly getting better. I plan to gradually improve my bad lifestyle and way of thinking here and try harder to blend in with the world.
And after a lot of consideration, I realized that what I ultimately have to do is ‘music’. While there are aspects that are intimidating and challenging, I think that the only way to repay those who wait and support me is with music that comforts and gives happiness, not controversies anymore.
I am preparing an album that contains all my stories, putting the most effort I can. Since I have to do everything from scratch, working part-time and raising production costs little by little, it may take some time. But when these songs come out, I will make sure they will satisfy you.
I will occasionally update you on the progress of my work.
And I will continue to reflect on myself, repent, and live with a heart full of apologies to those who have been hurt.
Sincerly, Taehyun
Fans who read his message sent words of support and love for his new journey!
