Ex-Stray Kids Woojin reportedly on Open Chat in KakaoTalk addressing fans

[juhli.livejournal.com]

"Hello. This is Woojin.

I want to sincerely thank the fans who sent support and love to me while I was Stray Kids "Woojin". Also, I want to sincerely apologise to the fans that were shocked and devastated by the sudden news.

I do not have any personal SNS (social media) so I wondered how I could share my message. I also needed time to adjust and heal. Although it is hard to explain how long I've been debating this, I believe the fans who have loved me until now will understand me.

Until I can stand in front of you guys, I will work hard as I think about good music and sincerity in songs! Even though it may take a while, please look after me and cheer me on.

I sincerely thank and love you all. From Woojin."

Woojin left the chat immediately after he sent his letter. For those wondering, apparently it's normal for celebrities to join these public group chats and than leave immediately after once they've said whatever they need to say.

But still no real reason as to why he left so suddenly?

So, it's not that he has given up on music then or left because of health reasons then...

I get the feeling he didn’t like the direction the group was going and bounced? I know he was going to debut in nct which was also hip hop heavy so maybe he doesn’t vibe with that sound in the long run? That is if JYP is that opening to idols leaving for artistic differences...

i could buy that theory if the timing wasn't so terrible but ig it's still a possibility. iirc woojin gave the impression that he was cut from the potential lineup of nct, not that he chose to leave sm of his own accord.

Oooh I’m not 100% up to date with sk so I thought he dipped and joined jyp! I guess my theory doesn’t work lol

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Jype wouldn't let him leave shortly before a comeback just because he doesn't like their musical direction.
