Friendship bonds are often treasured, and the memory of a lost loved one holds a special place in our hearts. In a touching display of friendship and remembrance, the late ASTRO member Moonbin's closest friends recently visited the chicken restaurant owned by Moonbin's family. Fans were touched by the enduring friendship and loyalty shared by these individuals, and they were grateful for this beautiful gesture.

The heartwarming visits by Moonbin's closest friends to a quaint eatery called 'Barun Chicken' in Gongneung, owned by Moonbin's aunt, have been making their way through the ASTRO fandom. Initially, the existence of this restaurant was a closely guarded secret known only to a small group of Moonbin's most ardent supporters. The signatures of various artists adorned the establishment's walls, including Moonbin's sister, Sua, who is a member of Billlie, and other members of Billlie as well. 

Recent eyewitness accounts from fans, however, reveal that the number of signatures adorning the walls of 'Barun Chicken' has multiplied, with Moonbin's dear friends also leaving their marks. Signatures from SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan, Jeonghan, and DK; VIVIZ's SinB and Umji; IMFACT's Ungjae; Weki Meki's Choi Yoo Jung; and, of course, Moonbin's fellow ASTRO member, Sanha, are among these heartfelt additions.

Sanha was seen yesterday with his family and his brother’s girlfriend at Moonbin’s family chicken restaurant.
