Taehyung's mention of Moon Sang-hoon's brings his letter to light

Moon Sang-hoon is a South Korean YouTuber, comedian, actor, and writer, well known for his heartfelt handwritten letters. Notably, he is known for bringing handwritten letters to the host whenever he appears as a guest on popular Korean shows such as You Quiz on the Block.

He had written one such letter to MC Yoo Jae-suk, the very letter that V spoke about during the Weverse live. During the live, Taehyung revealed that Moon Sang-hoon's letter to Yoo Jae-suk gave him great comfort during a difficult time.

An excerpt from the letter read:

"They say you can't be a good person to everyone—and every time I use that convenient excuse, I think of you, hyungnim. And then, I choose once again to believe in the saying "The kindest person is the strongest person," a phrase I've always doubted. Every night, I promise myself to become a better person tomorrow, but more often than not, I fall short of who I was yesterday."

It continued:

"Still, the courage to try and live better today—I owe that to you. Thank you. In this world where everyone seems to know me, yet loneliness lingers, I always wonder if you're doing well... I hope, for the most part, you are happy... I just leave my heart with you. Always, thank you."
