Mark revealed yesterday (the 9th) through a fan communication platform, 'Today marks exactly 10 years since debut,' and 'I wanted to express my gratitude to the fans who have been with me during that time.' He also shared his recent situation, saying, 'Recently, I have been taking time to organize various things and prepare for the future,' and 'I hardly look at social media and get information through people around me.' He particularly expressed deep gratitude for the support from his fans, saying, 'I was truly surprised and moved to see the support truck and positive messages,' and 'I am grateful beyond words.' He continued, 'I will return in a better form so that I can repay the support that fans send me,' showing his intention to return. At the same time, he repeatedly apologized, saying, 'I sincerely apologize to all the fans who were hurt because of me.'
