I think it's good to put worries aside for a bit and make a wish while looking at the beautiful full moon.' They also conveyed their wishes for a rich and happy Chuseok. Weeekly, who released their 6th mini-album 'Bliss' in July and are continuing their global growth with a tour in 9 cities, said, 'During Chuseok, I hope you forget your busy daily life a little, eat a lot of delicious holiday food, and spend happy times while thinking about us Weeekly.' They added, 'My wish is for Daily (Weeekly's fan name) to continue to live healthily and happily. Please be careful while returning home and have a comfortable and happy Chuseok.'
