Letter #132 "Cassiopeia"


(T/N: This is the translation of a letter that a Cassiopeian posted in Daum. I wanted to share this to all of you. If you read it, you'll understand why)

"Cassiopeia"


It's a very familiar name, right?

If you're a person who likes TVXQ
you will have heard of it at least once,
and you will have introduced yourself as one at least once.

We have always thought of the name 'Cassiopeia' so proudly
and I believe we will keep doing so in the future.

I'm here to talk about our name
'Cassiopeia'.

Do you remember how we got the name 'Cassiopeia'?
We got it off of the constellation 'Cassiopeia'.

Five stars that shine brightly in the northern skies.
That is 'Cassiopeia'.

But, there's something you should know about 'Cassiopeia'.

The constellation 'Cassiopeia'
is one you can see all year round in Korea,

and it is also a constellation winter travelers use as a compass to find Polaris.

We,
Our name,

stays in one place no matter what
and guides travelers who have lost their way,
and their hope
towards the right path to bright Polaris

That is where our name comes from.

Did you know that?
If you did, have you forgotten that?

When we chose our name as 'Cassiopeia',
we made a promise to ourselves.

That we'd always brightly shine upon our stars TVXQ.
That we'd shine and protect our stars TVXQ.

When they lost their way,
when they felt worn out,

We would always shine on them from one place
so that they could find their way,
so that they could find hope.

........... We haven't forgotten that, right?

We,

Those feelings we had at that time,
that faith,
we still have all of those.


Do you see it?

Shining so bright in the sky,
that's us.

It's going to be hard.
Keeping our faith in hard times like these,
it may be hard to believe in them till the end.

But we are 'Cassiopeia'.

I believe that what we have to do is stay right where we are and wait for them/

In this spot, so that TVXQ don't lose their way,
So that TVXQ has somewhere to return to,
So that they do not lose hope,

We have to wait.


I don't know how long this will take.
But I will wait.

Right here, not changing one bit.

Like 'Cassiopeia', that shone light on the path for people for thousands of years

I will shine light on the path so that TVXQ can return whenever they are ready.

Because I am 'Cassiopeia', for whom even the wait is sweet...


Always keep the Faith!

I guess everybody must remember now...why did we call ourselves Cassiopeia. This is a really good reminder for me, now I remember again...why did I call myself Cassiopeia. When we call ourselves as Cassiopeia, it means that we're promise to be loyal to our boys...we're the stars that always shone for them, we show them the path whenever they're lost....we're always there for them...
I am a Cassiopeia, and I'm proud of it!
