SO GEON, a member of the group NEXZ, brought fans to tears as he confessed the heavy emotions he had been enduring alone since his debut.

In the recently released NEXZ original content 'NEX2U,' SO GEON sat down one-on-one with leader TOMOYA to share his unspoken thoughts. He began by saying, "Until last year, the biggest thought on my mind was, 'Why did I debut when I wasn't fully prepared?'"

He confessed to feeling a sense of "indebtedness" and "guilt" about debuting after a short training period, especially when thinking of those who had trained much longer than him. He revealed that this drove him to push himself harder during every practice, spending his time under a hidden sense of pressure, which touched the hearts of many.

SO GEON also shared a desperate anecdote from his audition days. On the day before the final mission, sensing he might be eliminated, he filmed a solo vlog, saying, "I'm recording this because I think today might be my last day." This sense of uncertainty continued even after his debut, acting as an obsession that he "must prove himself through skill."

In response to SO GEON’s tearful confession, leader TOMOYA offered sincere comfort. TOMOYA replied, "There are so many people who love the GEON you are right now, and the way you strive is beautiful in itself. Whether you do well or not, just having you active and laughing with us as a member of NEXZ is enough to make me happy." This warm support from the leader became a decisive turning point, changing SO GEON’s "doubt about debuting" into "confidence."

Fans are sending warm encouragement to the two, commenting, "I had no idea SO GEON was struggling with such thoughts," "I'm so glad they have a leader like TOMOYA," and "The story of NEXZ is only just beginning."
