BOYNEXTDOOR's Unhak and TWS's Jihoon Graduate High School, Step into Adulthood

BOYNEXTDOOR's Unhak and TWS's Jihoon have graduated from high school, marking a significant step into adulthood.

The 14th graduation ceremony took place on the morning of the 17th at Hanlim Multi Art School in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

During the ceremony, Unhak expressed mixed feelings about the end of his school life, saying, "It's a bit sad that school life is ending, but I'm grateful to have graduated safely. I will continue to work hard in my activities." He also left a message for his friends, "Let's work hard and become great artists who leave a mark in history. Fighting!"

Unhak humorously shared his post-graduation wish, "I love going to the bathhouse, but as a minor, I couldn't go after 10 PM. I want to visit a bathhouse after 10 PM once my schedule allows." He concluded by saying, "My goal is to show my fans as much as possible, so I'm working hard on my music. I'll continue to work hard and show you soon."

Jihoon also shared his thoughts on leaving his school uniform behind, "I'm happy to have grown from a brilliant student to a mature adult. I'm grateful to have met great teachers and friends at Hanlim Multi Art School." He added, "I want to express my gratitude for all that I've learned."

Jihoon mentioned his friends, saying, "Seeing friends who always support and believe in me has been a great motivation and learning experience." He didn't forget to congratulate them, "Congratulations on graduating, everyone!"

When asked about his post-graduation plans, Jihoon said, "I've always wanted to spend a night at a jjimjilbang (Korean sauna), and I'd like to try that. I hope to go with my classmate Jihoo (Even Park Jihoo)."

Jihoon expressed his ambitions, "We're always striving to deliver the best music and performances, so please look forward to it. We'll continue to work hard to bring you great music."

Unhak, the youngest member of BOYNEXTDOOR, is currently on their first solo tour, meeting fans worldwide. After successful performances in Incheon, Tokyo, Aichi, and Osaka, the six members will continue their tour in 13 cities, including Miyagi, Fukuoka, Kanagawa, Singapore, Manila, Bangkok, Taipei, Hong Kong, and Jakarta.

Jihoon's group, TWS, held their first fan meeting from the 14th to the 16th at the Olympic Park Handball Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul. After wrapping up their first fan meeting, TWS is heading to Japan. They will meet local fans in Tokyo at the Musashino Forest Sports Plaza Main Arena on the 15th and 16th of next month, with a total of three fan meetings.
