Now, in the recent, Yoon San-ha or Sanha has dropped a new song cover and fans think it’s about Moonbin. Scroll through for more details!

Moonbin died on April 19 this year. While prima facie in the death was suspected suicide initially, his mother urged people to not make blatant claims and refrain from spreading rumors. “These kinds of rumors are so difficult for me to see as a mother, and I am also worried that because of these false rumors, many people will suffer damages, and the fans who have been grieving for my son might suffer heartbreak,” she said in a statement released by Moonbin’s agency Fantagio.

Now, Sanha has dropped a cover of the Japanese song, “Neko” on Saturday. Although there was no mention of it in the video title or tweet, Arohas believes it’s a tribute to Moonbin as every detail related to it points to Moonbin, for example the cover was dropped precisely at 1.26 am KST, which is also the Moonbin time due to his birthday being on January 26 (1/26).
