Dear LOCKEY,
It feels a little unreal to write this today.
One year ago, on this exact date, my journey to become part of this group officially began. The announcement came out, and suddenly, a dream that I had carried in my heart for so long became real.
I still remember how nervous, excited, and emotional I was at that time. There were so many unfamiliar things ahead of me, and I honestly didnโt know what the future would look like.
But one thing I knew for sure was that I wasnโt alone.
From the very beginning, I received so much love and support from my members, my fans, my friends, and my family. Every message, every kind word, every cheer, and every little bit of encouragement gave me the strength to keep moving forward.
I also still remember my firstโone and onlyโfan letter. I still keep it until now. It was one of the things that gave me so much strength when I stood on my first debut stage.
To the person who wrote that letter, thank you so much. I hope you know that your words have stayed with me all this time <3
Looking back now, I realize that the beginning of this journey wasnโt only about becoming an idol. It was also the beginning of meeting so many precious people and creating memories that I will carry with me for a long, long time.
There have been ups and downs, but through all of them, Iโm grateful that you were there with me.
To LOCKEY, thank you for believing in me and supporting me from the beginning. Thank you for seeing my potential even when I was still learning how to believe in myself. Your love means more to me than I can fully put into words.
To my members, family, and friends, thank you for cheering me on through every step of this journey. Iโm so lucky to have people who celebrate my happiness and stay beside me when things arenโt easy.
And to Dinda from one year ago, thank you for taking that first step.
I donโt know what the next chapter will bring, but I want to keep growing, keep learning, and keep showing you new sides of myself.
And I know one thing for sure, I will always love you.
Thank you for being part of my journey, for being there from the beginning, and for becoming a part of my story.
Letโs make many more beautiful memories together.
With all my love, now and forever
xoxo, Dipi
