A letter of thanks and apology to Kim Hyun Joong

I've written HERE yesterday the incident that happened to Hyun Joong in Madrid last Tuesday, 13th of April. I'm sure there are fans who were not happy about the incident.

As an apology to the behaviour of some fans there is a group of Spanish fans who wrote a letter to Hyun Joong [I'm just not sure where this was originally posted as it did not say]. Anyway, I'm posting the letter and hoping that the message will be sent to Hyun Joong.

A Letter of Thanks and Apology to Kim Hyun Joong
Spain, 2010-04-15

posted by Susispooky @ Kim Hyun Joong Thread at Soompi

Dear Kim Hyun Joong,

With this letter, we wanted to express the feelings of all your fans from Spain. First, we wanted to say we are very grateful for the behavior you had with those fans who saw you as Barcelona as in Madrid.

Maybe it was nothing relevant for you, but believe us when we say that for each one of us has been something we could never forget in our lives.

We would also like to apologize for the sad incident that happened last Tuesday in your stay in Madrid. Most of the spanish fans that sign this letter, completely disapprove, and of course, we do not share the attitude of those girls that we consider shameful. Also, we condemn it, and that´s the reason why we have decided to apologise to you and your staff.

Unfortunately, as you imagine there are all kind of fans in any country. And, although many of us have made the most possible to make you feel as you were at home and that you were comfortable being in a foreign country you have never visited before, we feel in some way this incident may have a negative influence on what you think about spanish fans.

We hope you have pleasant memories of our country and of our people, who kindly approached you and whose experiences are a treasure now for all of us. There are so many fans who could not see you, but they felt closer to you through the stories of the ones who saw you.

Thank you for your kindness. Although at first, in Barcelona, you were confused when you realized that, even in Spain, there were people who admire you, and because of that and your staff’s cold behavior we felt a little bit rejected. But soon, we knew that we had a false impression of you. The fans, we are not all the same and, of course, we did not want to make you feel uncomfortable but quite the opposite. Because of that, and your attitude later, we are very grateful. Every autograph, every picture, every smile of yours have been worthy and cheered us up.

Despite that you have only been a week in our country, we are all very happy to have seen you and to have shared same nice and amusing moments with you.

That’s right, Kim Hyun Joong, you do have fans in Spain, and in Latin America, and in Europe... We, your fans, admire you and support you.

We hope that you had a nice stay in Spain and that you bear us somehow in your mind. For us, your presence here has been like a dream come true.

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts,

Your Spanish fans.

Oh! How sweet! Hopefully, someone will translate the letter into Korean, so Leader can read it.
I'm sure he already lets go of the bad memory, and only keeps the good one. Incidents with fans are everywhere, not just Spain. I'm sure he'll understand. It also means that he's loved by so many.

I am so touched by this letter as I was amazed by the wonderful fan accounts of seeing and being with Hyun Joong in Spain .Please anyone out there who knows Korean ,translate this letter for KHJ to read. I am sure he will be equally if not more touched by the fans' genuine concern for his comfort and beautiful memories of the short visit .
