Following the announcement, Heeseung addressed fans directly on Weverse with a heartfelt handwritten letter.
He reflected on his six years with ENHYPEN, expressing gratitude for his fellow members and fans, known as ENGENE.
The K-pop icon shared that he had long worked on personal projects and made the decision to follow the company’s guidance to “return to ENGENE with an even better version” of himself.
Lee Hee-seung debuted with ENHYPEN in November 2020, after being selected through the survival show I-LAND.
Since then, the group — now comprising Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki — has gained a global following, known for music and visuals often tied to vampire-themed narratives.
Their latest release was the January extended play THE SIN : VANISH.
Fans can expect Heeseung’s solo debut in the near future, as he prepares to chart a new chapter in his career while ENHYPEN continues its activities as a six-member group.
