2AM's Jo Kwon Deeply Saddened for Sewol Ferry Victims After Visiting Memorial Site

Jo Kwon of 2AM expressed his heavy heart after visiting the memorial site for the victims of the Sewol Ferry tragedy.

“My footsteps were heavy going to the memorial site but I can’t help it that my footsteps were heavier when I was leaving. I will go back to everyday life with a heart to make up for the assignments left by the students as well as the other passengers who were victims of the tragedy,” the singer posted on Twitter the afternoon of April 26. 

분향소를 가는 발걸음보다 나오는 발걸음이 더 무거운건 어쩔수 없네요. 학생분들은 물론 일반인 희생자분들까지..그분들이 남겨주신 숙제들을 풀기위한,속죄하는 마음으로 또 일상으로 돌아갑니다.
