KBS reported
-"Fans are strongly protesting the news of member Heeseung's departure from the group ENHYPEN.
Two days ago, the agency announced that the group's main vocalist, Heeseung, plans to transition into a solo artist, and ENHYPEN will continue its activities as a 6-member group without him. It is reported that this is because the musical directions pursued by Heeseung and the other members differ from each other.
Heeseung himself also conveyed the same position through a handwritten letter that day, stating that he made a big decision in order to show a better side of himself.
However, fan reactions are generally negative. Given that ENHYPEN is a popular group representing K-pop and with only about a year left until contract renewal, they find it difficult to understand the departure of a key member.
Moreover, as the number of idols who balance both group and solo activities is increasing these days, it is not common for a member to specifically leave their group. While some fans have issued statements demanding Heeseung's return and announced plans for truck protests, attention is focused on how ENHYPEN and Heeseung will overcome the fans' concerns."

HEESEUNG IS NOT OPTIONAL. Erasing him undermines ENHYPEN's identity. Creative freedom must never cost the whole team. Fans demand seven members remain intact. ENHYPEN IS SEVEN. #BEACCOUNTABLE_BELIFT#ENHYPEN_IS_7#HEESEUNG_STAYS
