Minhyuk shared his heartfelt thoughts following the discharge, saying,
“Hello, I’m now coming back to society as MONSTA X’s Lee Minhyuk, not Sergeant Lee Minhyuk. A lot of people came to congratulate me today, thank you so much. I will work hard tirelessly to show the things MONBEBE (MONSTA X’s fandom) wanted to see. To all the people who waited, thank you all so much!”
