NAMJOON’S BIRTHDAY COUNTDOWN:
“My favorite quote these days is, ‘done is better than perfect.’ I think it means that doing something is better than trying just to be perfect. That’s how I see it. I liked it. ‘Done is better than perfect.’ Nothing is really ever perfect. So these days, I’ve taken that quote to heart.” 🤍

SEUNGKWAN: 고마운 것도 미안한 것도 너무 많은
든든한 형이자 동생 내 친구 같은 찬이ㅎㅎ
정말 내 인생의 피철인 아니 피쳐링 같은 존재야
형이 많이 좀 오그라들게 써도 이해해주고ㅎ
나도 생색내고 싶어서
위버스에다 쓰는 거 맞으니까 넘어가고ㅎ
암튼 올해도 형 생일 챙겨준 것도 너무 고맙고
한국 곧 오면 나랑 맛난 거 먹으러 가자
예전에는 어떻게 내 마음을 이렇게나 몰라줄까
서운하고 섭섭할 때도 많았는데
우리가 이제는 서로가 말하지 않아도
서로를 너무나 잘 알아서 이젠 좀 신기할 정도야
서로에게 그만큼 많은 감정을 표현하고
느껴봤기에 그런 거겠지?
나에게는 없어서는 안되는
내 동생 찬이 ㅎ 요즘 더더욱 성숙해지고
어른스러워진 게 느껴져서 참 든든하다
나를 돌아봤을 때
그래도 ‘내가 인생을 잘 살아왔구나‘ 또
‘잘 살아가야겠다’ 고
느끼게 해주는 존재란다
가끔은 투정도 많이 부리고
찡찡대도 좋으니 언제든 와줘
앞으로 살아가면서
잊지 못할 추억 많이 쌓으면서 살아가자
더도 말고 덜도 말고 딱 지금처럼🤝
(There are lots of things I am both grateful and sorry for
Chan, who is a dependable hyung, younger brother, and friend to me hehe
Your existence really is a featuring and not just Pi Cheolin in my life
Hyung might write a lot of cringy things so please understand ㅎ
I also wanted to show off
And since I’m writing this on WeVerse, just let it slide ㅎ
Anyway, I’m very grateful that you took lots of care for my birthday this year
As soon as you land in Korea again, let’s eat something delicious together
In the past, I wondered how you didn't know how I felt
And there even were many times I felt hurt and upset
But now, even if we don’t say a word between ourselves
We understand each other so well, that I find it fascinating to an extent
Is it not because we are able to express our feelings to each other
That we now feel this way?
The one I can’t ever be without
My younger brother Chan ㅎ Nowadays you've gotten more mature
And I feel like you are becoming more like an adult who is so reliable
When I look back
Your existence has made me feel and think
That ‘I have lived my life well’ and
That I still need to ‘live life to the fullest’
Even when you feel like complaining and even whining,
Come to me anytime
As we continue to live
Let’s make more and build more memories we can’t forget
No more, no less. Just like now 🤝)
