K-Pop Group VIVIZ Grants Wish to Fan Battling Illness, Spreading Hope and Joy
On October 30, VIVIZ met with 19-year-old Lee Seok-hyun, who is fighting diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, to fulfill a special wish. Lee, who has been undergoing challenging treatments since his diagnosis last year, is a dedicated fan, having been a 'Buddy' (GFRIEND fandom name) for eight years and a 'Na.V' (VIVIZ fandom name) for four years.
According to Make-A-Wish, "Even in the hospital, Seok-hyun would sing VIVIZ songs to the medical staff, spreading bright energy. VIVIZ has been a significant source of strength for him during his tough battle." Inspired by VIVIZ, Lee dreams of becoming an 'art therapist' to bring hope to others.
Upon hearing his story, VIVIZ eagerly visited Lee at the hospital, where they performed their debut song 'BOP BOP!' and GFRIEND's 'NAVILLERA,' and shared a joyful moment by exchanging couple bracelets. VIVIZ encouraged Lee with a heartfelt message, "Get well soon, and let's meet again at a concert!" creating an unforgettable memory for him.
Currently on their second world tour, 'VIVIZ WORLD TOUR 'NEW LEGACY',' VIVIZ is set to conclude their Asia tour in Taipei on November 2, followed by performances in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, on November 6 and 9.
