K-pop girl group Girls' Generation's Tiffany, who recently confirmed to start pursuing her career as a solo artist, shared her feelings through a note.

On June 22, Tiffany posted a long note for the fans on her social media account.
Through the note, she looked back on her past ten years as a member of Girls' Generation and expressed her sincere gratitude to her fans who have been with her throughout the journey.

Her full note is as follows:

I don't know where to begin―Music. Yes. This is about music.

I do feel a bit uneasy, nervous, vulnerable and almost naked in a sense... And that feels empowering because it's me.

I've always mentioned that music has been and will forever be my sanctuary.

Before flying off into my new world at 15 to start my career, I had found peace in music during one of the most difficult times in my life, which was dealing with the unexpected loss of my mother, and all the ripple effects of life changes and challenges mentally, emotionally, and physically that would come with it.

I needed music through these times. Listening to and creating music kept me sane, made me feel understood, and inspired me to always keep on going.

It was artists like Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey and all the uplifting divas I grew up listening to that helped with the healing.

The fact that somebody put words into music that could help me smile made me want to become an artist that can bring light back into a heart at the darkest hour, no matter what you're going through.

Over the years and marking a decade as a member of Girls' Generation I couldn't be more proud.

With you we created an amazing story together that shaped us into leading ladies. That togetherness made each of us find our own beautiful individuality.

I am excited to be in a time and age where I want to push aside the pressures and fears of failure, rejection and expectations in order to express more of myself.

I'm feeling more confident and comfortable in my own skin. And I am excited to share that feeling with you.

To my family, my friends and my fans who have watched me throughout any period of my life, for still being here and for loving me as I am.

It's your support that gives me courage to continue to challenge myself in creating and expressing what I believe in. I would not be here without you. I love you.

With all my heart, T.
Meanwhile, Tiffany is expected to make her solo comeback with 'Over My Skin' soon.
