Wizards Productions, the center in charge of SM Entertainment, said on the 14th that Seung-han had expressed his intention to leave the team""I respect the artist's decision and tell you that Seung-han has left the Rise, not joined 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 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 this regard, Wizards Productions bowed its head, saying, `We sincerely apologize for causing great hurt and confusion to Breeze due to the announcement of Seung-han's return as mentioned on the 11th.'
He then apologized for the announcement on the 11th, saying, "We are especially sorry for the growth achieved by the six members of Rise, your support, and the importance of the time you spent with Rise and Breeze, and for putting the production's position first."
The background of the original attempt to return Seung-han was that he/she thought for a long time that if Seung-han repented of his/her past mistakes and returned to show that Rise once again grew to the next level as a team, he/she would be able to give greater happiness to artists and fans", he explained.
In response to the fans' reactions, he said, "However, after reflecting on the opinions and reactions sent by the fans one by one after another after the announcement of the return, we realized that our decision only caused more confusion and hurt to the fans."
He then officially announced Seung-han's withdrawal from the team. Wizards Productions "Seung-han has expressed his intention to leave the team for the members and fans. We respect the artist's decision, and we would like to say that Seung-han has left the Rise, not joined it."
However, although Seung-han's withdrawal from Rise is correct, he left room to continue with SM Entertainment and Wizards Productions. Wizards Productions said it will support Seung-han to fulfill his talents and dreams in the future.
I would also like to express my sincere apologies for giving difficulties and confusion to the six members who have made us what we are now by doing their best thinking about the fans since our debut" We will do our best to support Rise members in all areas in the future so that they can continue to grow further."
Finally, "We will be careful about everything in the future, and we will try to make sure that the time when Rise and Breeze can be happy together lasts for a long time."
Seung-han, who was scheduled to return after 11 months after his debut, even reversed this and left the team for good. Two days after announcing his return, Rise plans to continue with the six-man system.
The following is a full notice on the withdrawal of the winning team from Wizards Productions
