Hiatus in May; plans for June & July (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone it's ya boi
So after much long thought, I will be taking a forced mental health break in May.
I did not arrive at this conclusion lightly and even now I'm nervous even making this post.
But this is my post letting anyone who needs to cancel their Patreon subscriptions for the month of May if you're solely here for content! I will be on a flight in a few days and so it doing refunds will be difficult for a few days.
I will be making a video on my plans for June & July, AFTER I film LE SSERAFIM's new YT video.
For those who may be wondering:
- Yes I will film and post LE SSERAFIM's listening party before I leave Korea.
- Yes I will finish BABY MONSTER EP 8 before my hiatus.
- There will be SOME bonus drops in May.
I'll be posting the May schedule on May 3rd 00:00 UTC/9AM KST. These videos will all be based on whatever I filmed May 1 - 2. I'm filming LE SSERAFIM anyway so I am choosing to push myself the last two days of my stay in Korea.
Please note that the bonus drops I will offer this month are absolutely not a way to keep you guys paying for the month of May. Please return in June, I don't want y'all spending X amount of money because of ONE video. Ultimately, it's your own money so the decision is on you, but I just feel guilty is all. The bonus drops I'll be offering in May are purely as a "thank you" to those who are sticking around.
The month of May will be a mental health break for me and after May 2 I will be doing no filming the rest of the month. I will make one official return for SEVENTEEN's F*ck My Life MV but that's it. I will be releasing prefilmed YT reactions every Tuesday on YT though.
So if you choose to continue your patronage into the next month, it will be in support of my rest and I thank you in advance for any who are staying. For those who aren't, I absolutely take ZERO offense. It's your money, I get it. I do not see you pausing your May patronage as not supporting my mental health--instead looking out for your own.
ZEROBASEONE's Gyuvin said it best: To love someone is a difficult thing as it takes time and energy. You may not have the time or the energy to support me this coming month and I just wanted to say that I understand.
With that in mind, I need to take this break. And as much as my brain really really wants to film, my body is begging me to stop. It's begging me to rest. And so I'm choosing to finally give it what it wants.
I have a big summer coming up, now even more big than I ever imagined.
Starting in June I may be making my return to live streaming and I will be doing (some) reactions live on a first party streaming platform. I can't say the platform yet or release details as we are still in discussions, but it is a major first party platform and they specifically want me to do reactions live.
I can go into details further in a later video which I will release with my May bonus drop schedule.
But because of this, I have a lot of things to organize and plan and I will need the proper rest to take this on.
FOR NOW, June is scheduled as a "healing content" month and July we will be back with our full, yes our FULL schedule.
Once again I'm sorry I never took a real break before and we had to arrive at a situation like this.
As for my June & July plans, it will require more details and a video so that will be posted May 2~3.
I just wanted to fully announce my hiatus before the Patreon charge cycle resets.
Thank you for always supporting my journey. I promise to come back rested, healed, and ready to finally show you all my real and best self!
With love,
HYUK PD
