@sushi_ot7_@EN7ernally exactly this! it’s getting so exhausting. they need to move on and continue to support each of them individually (enhypen as 6 and heeseung as Evan).
🐈 i couldn’t just let this pass, so i turned on the live.
🐈 um… this is being translated, right?
🐈 i think there are a lot of people who really loved who we were before and our past selves
🐈 but it seems like there are still many people who deny the current us, enhypen
🐈 since we never clearly addressed it ourselves, some people kept saying that we never properly spoke about it and continued bringing up the number of members
🐈 of course, i do understand the feelings of those who loved enhypen before
🐈 but now, enhypen is 6 members, everyone
🐈 enhypen is 6 members, and regarding the fan chants you do at concerts, i understand that too.
i understand because we haven’t clearly spoken about it until now, but it’s not good to see engenes fighting among themselves over things like that. honestly, it’s also become a big disruption during our concerts. a lot. now that i’ve clearly spoken about it today, i think those who truly like enhypen and genuinely support us will know how they should act going forward
🐈 i’ll be very clear about this myself. if i keep speaking vaguely, it could just cause more confusion. from now on, saying things like “enhypen is seven” is really just encouraging engenes to fight among themselves. nobody wants our fans fighting each other. the company doesn’t want that, engenes obviously don’t want that, and most importantly, the six of us don’t want that either. so from now on, i’m going to consider anyone who continues to stir up these kinds of conflicts as not being a fan.
🐈 that’s why i started this live in the first place. to talk about this, i came here on behalf of the members, and we share the same thoughts. the other five members think the same, so i really hope this won’t happen anymore. i’m being sincere.
🐈 like i said earlier, it’s honestly very distracting during performances. people spend their money to come see us, they take a lot of time to be there, and concert tickets are expensive. so it’s a nuisance to them too. anyway, i really hope you’ll stop doing things like that.
🐈 since this is being translated, i think everyone understands what i’m saying. that doesn’t mean our concerts in brazil and peru were bad. they were amazing concerts. i’m also looking forward to our upcoming concert in mexico.
🐈 i’ve made myself very clear. i’m saying this as the representative of enhypen. the other members all feel the same way. so please stop, and i hope you’ll take some time to think about this seriously. after all, we’re people who do this for engenes. seeing everyone fighting each other just wasn’t nice.
thank you for being so brave our leader 🥺
Naver article 260318
"On the 18th, Kim Sung-joo, Chairman of the National Pension Service (NPS), revealed via social media that the International Pension Support Center has recently been flooded with phone calls and emails from overseas. He stated, "Work was temporarily paralyzed as a surge of international calls came in all at once, and approximately 1,500 emails were received in just two hours."
"This situation is reported to be linked to the issue surrounding a member's departure from the group ENHYPEN"
Regarding this, Chairman Kim drew a clear line, stating, "The National Pension Service (NPS) is a long-term investor that manages the public's retirement funds; we do not interfere in the management or personnel issues of individual companies." He added, "The member composition of K-pop groups is also not a matter for our involvement." He further remarked, "While this was a sort of 'happening' that spread through social media, it served as an opportunity to reflect on the role of our institution."
Yahoo published an article, "But 10 million posts, a million signatures, and 18 trucks parked outside corporate headquarters suggest that ENGENE isn't asking. They're making a case and they've made sure the entire internet heard it."

The petition for #Heeseung to pursue solo activities while remaining in ENHYPEN officially hits 2 MILLION verified signatures on https://t.co/n1XL4AjXOj. He has also surpassed 40 MILLION mentions on X, with the conversation generating over 100 MILLION engagements on the platform.
The Japanese cb was supposed to be announced by now and that got cancelled. Tour is probably gonna be cancelled or postponed for a long time too. If Heeseung doesn’t come back, it’s gonna take a long time for the group to rebuild. I really have to ask Belift, was this worth it?
if this was truly planned, then there wouldn’t be the need of cancellations, postponings, OR rescheduling of events, flights, merch, fancalls etc
a planned departure would have included a proper farewell and explanation.
it’s clear belift is scrambling and silencing engenes.
the fact that heeseung was originally planned to go to australia with the members and the fact that they had to make changes in the choreos and formations just PROVES that this WAS NOT planned like belift said.
"A solo career should not require leaving ENHYPEN."
More than 1 million ENGENEs, fans of the globally successful K-pop group ENHYPEN, have signed a petition opposing member Heeseung’s departure.
On March 10, label BELIFT LAB announced he would leave to pursue solo activities, describing the move as mutual. However, many fans have questioned how voluntary his decision truly was.
The petition, which has grown to a massive scale, says Heeseung is an essential part of ENHYPEN’s identity, and urges BELIFT/HYBE to support parallel group and solo activities.

To @BELIFTLAB,
Has anyone in your company ever felt the pain of being suddenly abandoned? Have you ever been going about your day, or just waking up from a nap, and suddenly received a message from someone saying goodbye to you?
If none of you have experienced that, then good for you. But do you really have to make us go through it? Are you a company full of heartless people? Did no one in your company even think of ENHYPEN and ENGENEs?
What you did yesterday will never be forgotten. Dropping a sudden announcement at 4:00 PM KST. Do you have any idea how much pain you caused countless people?
If this was truly HEESEUNG’s choice, if this is what he wants for his happiness and artistry, then we will respect that no matter how painful it is, no matter how hard it is to accept. But knowing HEESEUNG, he was never someone who would act so suddenly. He would never allow ENGENEs to be this devastated. We have been connected for six years, so we know his heart, and we know how much he loves his fans.
Their schedules as a group are lined up, fancalls, music festivals, even new endorsements, but none of you in that company had the heart to think, “What if we give ENHYPEN and ENGENEs one last chance to be together as a group of seven? One last proper goodbye from ENGENEs to HEESEUNG as a member of ENHYPEN?” Would it have destroyed the company to do that? No, right?
Yes, we know this is just all business for you. But does nobody at BELIFT LAB have a heart for the fans? Does nobody consider the lives affected by these decisions?
You will never make us believe that ENHYPEN wanted it to end like this. You will never make us believe that HEESEUNG wanted yesterday to unfold this way. They have always been careful with ENGENEs, always protective of us, and we know they would never have chosen for us to be left shattered like this. The way yesterday happened was not their choice, it was yours.
You have no idea how much ENHYPEN has meant to us. You have no idea how many lives they have touched, how many people have leaned on them when nothing else could help. And yet you dropped this announcement with zero thought. You treated fans as if we were disposable, as if our grief, our heartbreak, our loyalty, and our love did not matter at all.
This is the heartbreak you have caused. This is the devastation of a fandom denied closure. This is the grief of losing a group as seven and being stripped of the chance to honor one of its members properly. We hope you understand the depth of the pain you have inflicted. We hope you understand the weight of your choices. We hope you see us, hear us, and acknowledge that this is not just ordinary news to be dropped carelessly, it is a wound that will take a long time to heal.
We hope you do not try to place the pressure and burden on JUNGWON, HEESEUNG, JAY, JAKE, SUNGHOON, SUNOO, and NI-KI because of everything happening online. They have already gone through so much. This is not their fault. This heartbreak, this confusion, and this devastation were caused entirely by your company. BELIFT LAB alone made the choice to leave all of us in shock, to strip us of closure, and to place an unimaginable weight on these members. The responsibility lies with you and you alone.
We will never be silent.
