Suho's handwritten letter reads:
"To EXO-L,
Hello, everyone. This is EXO's leader Suho, Kim Junmyeon. Finally, as of today, February 14, 2022, I have been discharged! First of all, I just want to say before anything else is that I missed EXO-L the most. Although I spent some time away from you all during my military service, thanks to you, it was a meaningful time that allowed me to think more about EXO-L. During the period of one year and nine months, I wanted to see all of you and the EXO members so much that I even held a concert in my dreams... hehe. I guess I must have wanted to jump forward in time and meet you on stage as soon as possible. But like I once said, 'If even the waiting in and of itself is joyful, then it is love,' and I also think that maybe because there were times like this, that the waiting may have made our feelings grow deeper. But still, from now on, let's not be apart ever again! If I can hold you, I would hold you tight and not let you go. From this moment on, I am preparing a gift for our EXO-L. I hope that it will be a gift that makes the waiting for me feel worthwhile. As we haven't been able to see each other in a long time, let's promise to see each other more often from now one!!!
WE! ARE! ONE! EXO! Let's love!
From Suho
P.S. I miss your silver light."
