's
Onew
made a triumphant return to social media with his first
update in approximately six months. On December 15 KST, the talented musician took to the popular platform to express his gratitude for the overwhelming outpouring of
birthday wishes
he received from devoted fans around the world.
The occasion for this heartwarming message was Onew's 34th birthday, which he celebrated on December 14. The post, which came as a delightful surprise to fans who had been eagerly awaiting any updates from the artist, was a sincere expression of gratitude. Onew conveyed his deep appreciation, saying, "I received so many well wishes on my birthday this year. Really, thank you so much. I'm so happy. Thank you. Thank you so so so so so so much. You all deserve good fortune".
The emotional connection between Onew and his fans was evident as followers flooded the comments section with love and warm wishes, expressing their joy at his return and heartfelt birthday sentiments.
In June, the singer had announced a temporary hiatus from his promotional activities due to health concerns. At the time, Onew candidly shared that he needed "a moment to catch his breath" and reassured fans that he would return to them in good health. The hiatus, while necessary for his well-being, left fans eagerly awaiting updates on his condition and eagerly anticipating his return to the public eye.
Now, with his latest Instagram post, Onew not only conveyed his appreciation for the love he received on his birthday but also offered reassurance to fans that he is on the path to recovery. The post signifies not only a celebration of his life but also a reconnection with the dedicated fan base that has been patiently awaiting his return.
As fans collectively celebrate Onew's belated birthday and relish in the joy of his social media comeback, the sentiment remains clear – welcome back, Onew, and may this be the start of a brighter and healthier chapter for the beloved SHINee member.
