Long time no see everyone!! This is Miyawaki Sakura!

I am writing this post because I have news I would like to deliver directly to the fans who always give me a lot of love.

This time, I transferred to Source Music under HYBE.

Since last summer, I haven’t been active on social media and in the eyes of everyone, so I’m sure you’re curious.

Sorry to keep you waiting, and thank you very much for waiting.

I’ve been watching the fans always givving me a lot of love.

I was also lonely during the period I couldn’t meet you, but I was getting stronger every time seeing the support you gave me.

And above all, I have been waiting for the day when I can tell you the news directly.

The weather is getting warmer these days and the seasons are changing from winter to spring.
It is said that cherry blossom buds bloom when they feel the warmth of spring while overcoming the severe cold of winter.

It is a structure that can bloom only when it experiences the cold of winter.

I think this period was such a time for me as well.

To become a cherry blossom in full bloom in spring, this winter, I was able to achieve a lot.

And I have met many warm staff who support me on my side, and I am able to do my best every day in a very nice environment.

We look forward to seeing you in a new way. I hope you will support our future activities as well.
