On March 10, 2026, Heeseung announced his departure from ENHYPEN, a decision that has been described as mutual between him, his bandmates, and management at BELIFT LAB.

At 24 years old, Heeseung was the oldest member of the group, which debuted in November 2020 after he participated in the survival show ‘I-LAND’. His contributions were pivotal in establishing ENHYPEN as a leading fourth-generation boy band.

Future Plans

Following his departure, Heeseung plans to continue his music career as a solo artist under BELIFT LAB, with intentions to release a solo album. BELIFT LAB has noted that Heeseung possesses a distinct musical vision he wishes to pursue.

The remaining members of ENHYPEN—Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki—will continue as a six-member group. This marks the first lineup change for ENHYPEN since their debut, a significant moment in the group’s history.

Reflections and Gratitude

In a heartfelt message following the announcement, Heeseung expressed gratitude to his bandmates and fans, stating, “Thanks to the members with whom I shared countless emotions, and to ENGENE, who always filled every empty space with their support, I was able to take step after step toward a dream that once felt out of reach.”

BELIFT LAB emphasized that the decision was reached after extensive discussions about each member’s vision for the future and the team’s direction. They stated, “We hope you understand that this decision was made for the future of ENHYPEN and Heeseung.”

Current Status

As of now, ENHYPEN is moving forward as a six-member ensemble, while Heeseung embarks on a new journey as a solo artist. The transition signifies a new chapter for both the group and Heeseung, highlighting the evolving landscape of K-pop and the individual aspirations of its artists.
