Following the successful completion of their first-ever Asian tour by the group band Jangnabi, Choi Jung-hun left a lengthy reflection.

On the 26th, Choi posted on his personal SNS: "This was our first tour. It has just concluded. I am now sitting in my favorite familiar café to write this. Over the past two months, we performed across seven locations in Asia. On the night before each performance, I would sit in my hotel room preparing for the local language, pondering what unique aspect of ourselves to showcase at each show before falling asleep. Except for those moments on stage, that time will remain most memorable. We were filled with happiness and excitement. It was also a fulfilling period where we felt grateful to be able to prepare for performances amidst such luxury. These were times when I deeply realized that none of this would have been possible without Korea's JF, and that these seemingly ordinary things are far from guaranteed."

He continued, "Therefore, as we conclude our first tour, I want to extend my first words of gratitude to Korea's JF. From the top of my head to the soles of my feet, every action and existence is filled with gratitude. Thank you. While spending time so busily, stepping onto the stage made everything feel like a miracle and magic. In truth, each performance was preceded by worry—what if our energy couldn't reach as much as it did in Korea? But the moment we began playing and that worry turned around, the joy that followed... there is no dream more vivid than that. I believe this electric moment was felt not only by us on stage but also by the audience. Please hold onto that lightning-like moment for a long time."

Jangnabi's first Asian tour, "Sweat & Stardust," which began in Taipei last June, proceeded across seven countries and seven cities: Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, and Jakarta. The band prepared by translating song lyrics into local languages, arranged special cover performances for each region, and actively engaged with fans.

Choi Jung-hun said, "As you may have felt, we never treat any performance lightly. Just as the primordial flint of your passion and ours could not be extinguished even by summer humidity, we were grateful that you collided with us alongside sweat so that we could burn brightly and fully reveal ourselves. In Korea, Jangnabi and JF have always played together like this. We hope for your continued support in the future." He greeted overseas fans with these words.

He then added, "It feels as though we've gained friends from diverse parts of the world to play with, which makes me slightly excited. Yet, just as all this happiness isn't taken for granted by me, I believe future happiness won't be either. We will strive even harder to continue creating more wonderful and healthy music, performances, and activities—sometimes living desperately. Jangnabi always wants to be a source of strength in your lives. LOVE FOR JF! And we extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who helped create the best possible performances under such challenging conditions. May the lessons we've gained together accumulate steadily within us... and may we confidently welcome another great moment!!" He expressed intense emotion.

Meanwhile, having successfully concluded their first Asian tour, Jangnabi will continue the momentum with a concert scheduled for the 23rd–25 at Seoul Olympic Park's KSPO DOME. Following their debut solo stage at KSPO DOME last year with "All Boys and Girls 2125," they will now unfold a second story on the same stage.
