0:00Hello , everyone . It's Nako . I have
0:03something I want to talk to you all
0:04about today . You may already know , but
0:08the band I've been active in , MSK , has
0:10decided to disband . This is a sudden
0:15announcement , so I’m sure it comes as
0:17a shock , and I’m sorry for making
0:19those of you who have supported us feel
0:21so sad . First of all , I want to express
0:27my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who
0:29has supported FSK and taken such good
0:31care of us . Thank you so much . Looking
0:35back , we’ve been through so many
0:37things . Like our first live show , our
0:41audition , and the times we just hung
0:42out with all the members . There were
0:49times things went well , and times they
0:51didn't , which caused a lot of worry and
0:53pain , but looking back now , I feel like
0:55every single moment was a learning
0:57experience for me . We worked hard on so
1:09many things , and while MSK is
1:10disbanding , the words you all shared —
1:12like " that was fun , " " you were cool , "
1:14and " you make great music " — have
1:16stayed with me , and they made me feel
1:18like I’m truly glad I did music . I
1:29think it’s the same for any job , but
1:31of course , when you’re in a band ,
1:32it’s not just all about the hard
1:34times or all about the fun times . So ,
1:41I’ve had my share of joys and
1:43struggles , but I believe the only
1:45reason I made it this far is because of
1:46your support . So , to everyone who
1:54listened to my music , to everyone who
1:56came to see us live , and to everyone
1:57who supported our activities behind the
2:00scenes and helped us out — thank you ,
2:01once again , from the bottom of my heart
2:03. I’ve been in Japan for two years
2:09now . For one year I did MSK , and then
2:13one year of solo work and one year as a
2:15band , totaling two years . The band is
2:20breaking up , as I announced on social
2:22media , and my contract with the agency
2:24has ended . I’m truly grateful for
2:28these past two years . Thank you very
2:31much . Now , I’d like to talk about my
2:35future activities . As some of you may
2:43already know , I’ve decided to move my
2:45base of operations from Japan back to
2:47Korea . Actually , I am Korean , and I
2:55have now moved back home . I plan to
3:01continue my music production and solo
3:03activities while living in Korea , and
3:05I’m going to do my best . I know I
3:14have fans in Japan waiting for me , and
3:16I want to perform there again , so I’m
3:18not leaving Japan for good . I won’t
3:30be part of an agency or management firm
3:32, but I’m working hard to prepare to
3:34resume my activities in Japan as an
3:36independent artist , so please wait for
3:37me a little longer . I can do solo
3:49events and things like that in Korea ,
3:51but ultimately , I want to be in a band ,
3:53so I have plans to form a new band in
3:55Japan . Although M4SK is gone , I want to
4:06stand in front of you all again with a
4:08new band , new music , and a new look . To
4:16be honest , I can't say I don't feel any
4:19anxiety about the future . Starting over
4:25from scratch to do things the way I
4:27want is certainly not going to be easy .
4:34But I'm filled with a desire to do
4:36great things from here on out , so I'm
4:38very excited . Lastly , thank you all so
4:44much for supporting MSK until now . And
4:49everyone , let's meet again in Japan
4:51someday . This has been Anako . Bye-bye .
