SHINee Jonghyun’s last Instagram post may have been a cry for help

SHINee Jonghyun’s last Instagram post may have been a cry for help.

Jonghyun’s Instagram account is being flooded with fans leaving comments on his last photo.

The photo was written in Korean and is a screenshot of the song “Beside You” by the group Dear Cloud.

We translated the lyrics he posted below:

I had a thought while curling up
in a dark room alone
When you might regret
letting go of everyone.
Have the sighs and the restless wounds stopped by now.

I pray only that you aren’t hurting.
I hope only that you will be happy.

Please don’t try to be alone in the darkness.
Don’t torture yourself
Don’t torture you.
Please

The Instagram post was also captioned by Jonghyun and was posted with the lyrics above.

“I pray that you aren’t hurting.”

— Jonghyun
