Group Rise Seung-han expressed his feelings about leaving the team.

Seung-han left a handwritten letter on the fan communication platform Weverse on the 13th. Through the letter, he announced his withdrawal from Rise and expressed his regret to the members and fans (official fan club).

"I know that many of you are seriously thinking about my return to action, and I am now aware of the seriousness of the situationSeung-han, who said, `I only thought about myself so far, and I thought deeply about whether it was okay for me to join the team called Rise, which should be loved, and only worried and sorry feelings came to mind.'



He explained the reason why he decided to leave the team, saying, `I don't want to cause any more confusion and hurt to the fans, I don't want to cause any more damage to the members, I don't want to cause any more damage to the company.'

I would like to thank SM Entertainment and Rise members for their efforts to give me another chanceHe said to the fans, "I'm not good enough, but I'm sorry and thank you for your support," he said.



Despite the division among fans over Seung-han's return issue, "I really don't want the relationship between Rise and Breeze, which was developing together by supporting each other, to deteriorate because of me. It's so heartbreaking to have enough fans fighting against each other just because of me."

Finally, `I hope that the Rise I love will be loved more in the future and I will sincerely support it.'



Seung-han made his debut as a Rise member in September last year, but Bada suspended his team activities in November that year as his personal life as a trainee before his debut was revealed to the surface. In response, Rise has been working as a six-man system, and Wizards Productions, the center in charge of Rise, reported on the 11th that Seung-han will return to the team from November.

However, there was a strong opposition to Seung-han's joining among fans. Some fans sent a wreath to SM Entertainment's office building to oppose Seung-han's return. In response, Wizards Productions also expressed their intention to leave the team""I respect the artist's decision, and I would like to inform you that Seung-han has left the Rise, not joined it."" he said, officially announcing Seung-han's withdrawal.

The following is the full text of handwritten letters left by Seung-han.

Hello, I'm Seung Han.

I know a lot of people are seriously thinking about my return to activity, and I am now aware of the seriousness of this situation.

When I thought deeply about whether it was too much about me until now, or whether it was too damaging to the members and the company, whether it was really okay for me to be with the team called Rise that should be loved, I only thought of my worries and feelings of sorry.

That's why I feel like my exit from the team is the way for everyone.

I don't want to cause any more confusion and hurt to the fans, I don't want to cause any more damage to the members, and I don't want to cause any more damage to the company.

I want to say thank you to the company and the members for their efforts to give me a chance again. I'm so lacking, but I'm sorry and thank you to those who have supported me.

I really don't want the relationship between Rise and Breeze to deteriorate because of me, which was developing together by supporting each other. It's so heartbreaking to see enough fans fighting against each other just because of me.

I hope that my beloved Rise will be loved more in the future and I will support you with all my heart.
