I'm writing this handwritten letter in celebration of IZ\*ONE's 1st Anniversary.
We already spent a year together.
Someone please stop time ㅠㅠ
I still clearly remember the first time we greeted with La Vie en Rose.
I think time went by so fast.
I hope every single moment that was spent with us, IZ\*ONE
Was like a happy gift to WIZ\*ONE hehe
When I see WIZ\*ONE who always cheers and waits for us no matter where we are.
I feel like I gain strength that I didn't have.
It makes me want to see you all as soon as possible.
Let's continue to be happy, or even happier than right now.
Together, promise!
