ENHYPEN's Jungwon addresses the group's six-member lineup and the ongoing fan disputes surrounding it during his recent live:
"Because we hadn't addressed it directly until now, many people felt we never properly acknowledged it, leading some to deny the current ENHYPEN, talking about the number of the members. (..) ENHYPEN is six members now.
(..) I understand it, but it's not good to see fans fighting over things like this. Honestly, it doesn't look good, and it ends up disrupting the performances as well.
No one wants to fight over this, not the company, not the fans, and not us the members."
JUNGWON I LOVE YOU AND IM PROUD OF YOU THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST LEADER AND IM SO SORRY
🐈Because we haven't spoken about it definitively until now, some people were saying things like we haven't properly addressed it, and they've been talking a lot about the number of members. Of course, while I can understand the hearts of those who loved ENHYPEN back then, now, yes, ENHYPEN is six members, everyone. Yes. ENHYPEN is six members.
Things like what you say at the concerts or the fan chants, I do understand that as well, because we haven't spoken about it clearly until now. I understand it, but seeing Engines fighting each other because of things like that doesn't look good. To be honest, it also disrupts the performances a lot. Yes, really, honestly.
Since I've spoken about it clearly today, I think those who truly like ENHYPEN and support us will know how to act moving forward. Yes.
Ah, I'll just say this completely clearly. Because if I speak vaguely again, it might not work. From now on, saying things like 'ENHYPEN is 7' is basically telling Engenes to fight among themselves. Yes. Fighting among our fans nobody wants that. The company doesn't want it, Engenes obviously don't want it, and above all, the six of us do not want it.
So in the future, I am going to consider those who stir up or promote such disputes as not being fans. For me, too... Actually, I turned on this live specifically because of this, to talk about this. I came here to speak on behalf of the members. Yes, the other five members share the exact same thought.
So I hope you won't do that from now on. I really mean it. Yes."
fck yall literally fckkkkkk yall for making enha experience this disrespect fck yalll im proud of him BUT HE WASNT SUPPOSED TO ADRESS THIS SHIT IF YALL WAS NORMAL
JUNGWON :( 🫳🏻
🐈: there are still a lot of people who love and cherish the way we were before. i also think there are still many people who don’t accept enhypen as we are now. since we hadn’t clearly said anything ourselves… some people even kept bringing up the number of members, saying that we never properly addressed it.
🐈:i understand the feelings of those who loved enhypen before. but now, enhypen is six members, everyone.
🐈: even with the fan chants at concerts… i understand, because we hadn’t clearly said it ourselves but because of things like this, seeing engenes fighting with each other… honestly, it’s not nice to see. it also disrupts the concerts.
🐈: well… now that i’ve clearly said it today, i think if you’re someone who truly likes and supports enhypen, you’ll know how to act going forward.
🐈: i’ll say this clearly. from now on, saying things like ‘enhypen is 7’ is just making us fight amongst ourselves. it causes engenes to fight each other. nobody wants that, right?
🐈: neither we, nor the company, nor engenes want that.
🐈: so from now on, we’re going to think of people who deliberately encourage those kinds of conflicts as not being fans.
🐈: to be honest, this is actually why i came on live. i came representing the members, and the other five members feel the same way.
🐈: i really hope this won’t happen anymore. i sincerely mean it.
🐈: it’s something that affects us at concerts too… i really hope everyone will stop doing things like that now.
#JUNGWON’s message during his live:
Everyone, there’s something I really feel I need to say, and honestly, this is the reason I started this live. I don’t think this is something we can just ignore and move past, especially since Weverse translations are available now.
I know there are a lot of people who really loved our past, and I understand that. There are many people who still love how we used to be. But there also seem to be many people who continue to deny the current ENHYPEN or refuse to accept who we are now.
Since we hadn’t clearly addressed this before, some people have been saying that we never gave a proper statement, and they’ve continued bringing up the number of members.
Of course, I understand the feelings of those who loved ENHYPEN before. But now… ENHYPEN is six members, everyone. ENHYPEN is six members.
I understand why some people still do things like certain fan chants at concerts because we hadn’t clearly said anything until now. I understand that. But it’s really not nice to see ENGENEs fighting among themselves because of this.
To be completely honest, it also disrupts our performances. It really does.
Now that I’ve clearly said this today, I think anyone who truly likes ENHYPEN and supports us will know how they should act going forward.
I’m going to be very clear because I don’t want to speak vaguely anymore. When people keep saying things like ‘ENHYPEN is seven,’ all it does is cause fights within our fandom.
No one wants ENGENEs to fight each other. The company doesn’t want that. ENGENEs don’t want that. And most importantly, the six of us don’t want that.
So from now on, I personally won’t consider people who continue to stir up these kinds of conflicts to be fans.
Honestly, this is exactly why I started this live.
I came here representing the members. I talked with them, and I’m speaking on behalf of all of us. The other five members feel the same way.
So I sincerely hope this stops.
Like I said earlier, it’s honestly very distracting during concerts. People spend a lot of money and time to come see us. Concerts are expensive, and it’s unfair to those fans as well.
So… I really hope everyone stops doing this.
Now that the translations are available, I think everyone understands what I’m saying.
And just to be clear, I’m not saying that our concerts in Brazil and Peru were bad. They were amazing. They were really great performances.
I’m also looking forward to our upcoming concert in Mexico.
I’ve made our position very clear. I’m saying this as a representative of ENHYPEN. The other members all feel the same way.
Please stop, and I hope everyone takes some time to think about this seriously.
At the end of the day, we’re people who work and perform for ENGENEs, and honestly… seeing all of this wasn’t pleasant for us.

[#오늘의ENHYPEN] ENGENE, you made my day so incredibly special. I'll never forget the insane energy and the sound of your voices cheering for us! 🥰
