Chen wrote:

"Hello. This is Chen.

After worrying a lot about how I should express my feelings, it's taken me until now to write to EXO-L.

I'm worried I might hurt you with poor wording, but I want to firstly apologize to everyone who's waited for all this time. I also want to express my apologies to EXO-L who must have been very surprised and taken aback by the sudden news.

When I first wrote the letter, it was my first time experiencing something like that too, so I worried a lot about what I should say to EXO-L, who've been together with me. Still, I wrote a letter because I thought I needed to tell all of you first personally... but I was really sad to see people were hurt and ashamed by my clumsy and lacking words that didn't express my feelings correctly.

I'm not sure if my feelings were conveyed well enough, but I want to sincerely thank everyone who has given me love and support. I am here today because of all of you.

I also want to apologize for writing this letter so late. I'll be sure to show a side of me that works hard in the future. Thank you."
