Hello.
🕑 Added 2024-12-25 17:54:15 +0000 UTCHello,
It’s been 4 months since my last post, and during that time, I took a break and did a lot of thinking.
To keep it simple, I’m not quitting YouTube, but I don’t think I’ll be focusing primarily on it anymore. I plan to resume my activities starting in January.
To get to the point,
I gradually lost interest in War Thunder, which made it increasingly difficult for me to create YouTube videos.
This probably led to a decline in both the frequency and quality of my videos. While I’ve continued making videos because of my love for drawing and my characters, my lack of interest in the game has made it difficult to create as much content as I used to.
That said, I’m not giving up on my brand or retiring. I’ll likely be more active on X (formerly Twitter), sharing my drawings. As for YouTube, I think I’ll only post animated videos occasionally.
Over the past 4 months, I’ve done a lot of soul-searching. I’ve started to feel the effects of aging, and I realized that to move forward in life, I need to focus on excelling in one area.
I was at a crossroads, deciding whether to keep editing and creating meme videos on YouTube or to focus on drawing, which I truly enjoy.
In the end, I chose drawing as my path.
Creating new characters will likely become easier for me in the future, but I don’t plan to upload videos every time I create one. YouTube will probably only see occasional animation uploads from me.
To all the fans who have waited for me during these 4 months, thank you.
There were moments when I felt like I was about to break down, but I’ve been working to manage myself and keep going for the long run.
Lastly, thank you again. and Merry Christmas.

당신이 없는 동안 나는 한국어를 공부했어요. 이것은 주로 대형 호텔에서 일한 덕분입니다. 한국 관광객들이 많이 옵니다. 친애하는 대봄님, 당신이 돌아와서 정말 기뻐요. 이 기간 동안 너무 많은 것이 변했습니다. 몸 조심하세요 사랑하는 대봄님. 우리는 당신을 사랑합니다 🫂

I have been supporting you for almost a year, and i also had a great share of difficulties. But whenever I seen your posts, it gave me push to keep moving forward. I don't know why, but seeing you struggle helped me understand that I am not alone( To clarify I DON'T wish you to struggle more) . And for that I am grateful. I am looking forward to see you improve, and I hope I can too start moving forward again soon. Once again thanks from the bottom of my heart Daebom and merry Christmas

Happy Holidays, Daebom! It's totally OK, you're the artist we subscribed to follow. While it's a bit of shame for you to stop with WT, I totally get it. If a friend of mine didn't get into it recently I might as well have told my other friends I don't play anymore. Rather, it's very enjoyable just playing arcade modes in Rank 1 vehicles, I don't have to care of winning or losing or even really thinking at all. I'm excited to see your original characters, and perhaps the evolution of those you already have. I'd also be excited to see draw characters from other games, I recall you drawing Neural Cloud, Arknights and Girls' Frontline characters. Anyway, good luck, we're here to support your efforts!

Have you thought about just drawing characters from other games? Just anything you're interested in.

If anything, fewer uploads just means we can appreciate each one even more! The important part is that you're feeling better, Dae! 👍

A Daebom update, the best Christmas gift we could've asked for! Hope you're also having a fantastic Christmas day!
Asura
Welcome back Dae! I’m glad to hear you’ve been doing good. Regarding not doing war thunder anymore, yeah it’s a little sad but most of us loved your art a lot more (you where a little to cracked at war thunder in my opinion) also make sure to be safe on X, we all know how that platform is. Anyways welcome back and merry Christmas!!
Xiouzes
Well now that's a big present... please don't scare us like that again okay? We missed you

The return of the King! Happy to have you back Dae. Glad to see you're doing better

Glad you're still alive my dude. Hope you've been well. Was a little worried since I hadn't heard anything from you on discord. Not that you'd really need to pay attention to me at all lmao
Mikhael B
The best gift is to yourself , Taking care is important. Go easy on yourself, one thing at a time. Merry Christmas my dude, It’s been a pleasure being one of your patreons.
FluffyWinter109
It's no problem, warthunder does get boring after all the repetition nobody can blame you tbh I just like seeing your art, but I still remember you kicking my ass in warthunder before lol, continue making art but don't worry about warthunder many of us enjoy the art other than warthunder content🤙

Merry Christmas dae . Happy to see you back on internet
NeroMastic
Glad to see you still be around Dae I too quit WT due to it impacting my real life Was the best decision ever and got me more time to focus on myself. Maybe you can find some other inspiration to draw other then War Thunder Characters,it quite is exhausting to think of a new Character each time and make a video on them too. Also do try Bluesky (Old Twitter) its much better imo. Hope you recover well and see you next year.
SCP Conneri Breach
Merry Chrismas ! I started following you for war thunder but you have great talent and even if you were to change subject I would still stick around to admire your work
Warpants
Glad to hear that you’re finding a direction and I hope you’re feeling better. Have a great Christmas and new year celebration and look forward to 2025.

Huffy56
Even if it is not Warthunder related characters, I still love seeing your drawings. I hope these months off have been kind to you. Glad to know that you are doing okay. Happy holidays and take care
Harrison Even
Stay true to yourself and draw inspiration from the things you enjoy, we just love seeing what you create
AssassinEnzo137
Merry Christmas to you Dae and good luck
Oshida_BCF
Happy to see you back. I hope you are doing great. I will wait for your drawings. Also you don't have to ONLY draw war thunder characters, you can draw whoever you want, i'll be happy. I also became very bored of warthunder and i haven't done my "job" on it for months now, you aren't forced to play the game, do what you want. Cheers and Merry Christmas my friend.
