On January 1, singer JK Kim Dong Wook shared a powerful message, expressing his thoughts on the pressure artists face to post on social media during tragic events like the Jeju Air plane crash. In a heartfelt post, he explained, "Forcing sadness, no matter the reason, is never right."
He pointed out that just because someone doesn't share a photo on social media or write a public post, it doesn't mean they aren't deeply affected or mourning. "Not posting doesn't mean you're not sad," he shared.
Looking ahead to the new year, JK Kim Dong Wook encouraged his followers to cherish both the joyful and sorrowful moments in life. "We must live another year, laughing and crying with our loved ones, experiencing both joy and sadness together," he said.
He went on to remind everyone that this year should be one where people make thoughtful decisions and contribute to making the world better.

"Let’s make this year one where we can judge what is right and wrong with reason," he added. "I’m also writing songs with that mindset. Let's live with the belief that, by being ourselves, we can create a better world."
His message serves as a reminder to respect each individual's way of grieving, while also striving for a positive and thoughtful year ahead.
