It’s already halfway through this year and as the weather gets hotter, I realize how fast time is. My journey with KONNECT, which has been a fence for me for the past five years and something that has taught me about responsibility, has come to an end.
I want to convey my deepest gratitude to all the executives and employees who have cried and laughed with us while leading KONNECT. I will never forget this feeling.
Although it is, with great regret, that I have to end my journey with bad news, I will continue to work hard as we always have. This will also be a time to think a lot about a better future.
To my DANITYs, who must be thinking of me more than anyone else, I will always be by your side as Kang Daniel. I’ll try my best to share the good news with you as soon as possible, so don’t worry too much and please eat good meals.
Thank you.”
