RIIZE
One step forward, one step back.

While a few days ago the agency SM Entertainment and Wizards Productions announced his return, this another publication 4 days later comes to surprise everyone’s joy, like a stab. Indeed, the team in charge of RIIZE finally announces that SEUNGHAN is leaving the group for good.

In addition, the young man, SEUNGHAN, also left a new handwritten letter, on the online fan community, did he write it himself or was he asked to write it? This question will not really have an answer.

In it, SEUNGHAN expresses the fact that many people have thought about his comeback and that he has done it too. Is it good or not for him to come back, does he deserve to be part of a group that receives so much love. The young man questions himself, and announces that it is better for him to leave the group.
He wishes that the fans, the members and the company will no longer be under pressure and dismay because of him. He ends by saying that he will always support the group, but does not want the fans to wage a war among themselves.
SEUNGHAN had been put on hiatus several months ago, because of photos of him that came out, showing him in his everyday life, but having displeased a large number of people compared to the image that he “should have shown“.

For several hours, fans from many countries around the world, whether they are within the fandom of the group, BRIIZE, or simple fans, but also other fan bases such as those of other groups of the same agency, but also of THE BOYZ, SEVENTEEN, STRAY KIDS, … send their support.
Interesting actions are launched to try to make SM Entertainment understand the discontent, including unsubscribing from the group’s social networks, being one of the financial sources of this agency.
Already more than 20,000 followers less on Twitter. And fans from all over the world are trying to make SM Entertainment react with different hashtags like #SMSupportsBullying , #BringbackRII7E , #RII7E_or_NONE , and others.
Fans of Kpop groups, when they unite are capable of great things, we will be able to follow very quickly, the reaction of the agency to this union.
