My uncle, Song Dae-kwan, who was always kind and affectionate to me since I was little...

We are so devastated and heartbroken that he left us so suddenly. Seeing him so shocked that he couldn‘t even eat and was busy calling here and there in sorrow, I feel so sorry for my father who lost his life’s friend and brother.

I really wanted to see the two of you singing together on stage again...

I pray that you will be at peace forever there, uncle. It was an honor to serve you as uncle.
