Hello, this is Wizard Productions.
First, we sincerely apologize for offending BRIIZE [RIIZE’s fandom] And causing confusion by announcing Seunhan's comeback on October 11.
We feel particularly sorry for prioritizing the position of Wizard Productions, instead of our highest priority being the hard-earned growth of the six RIIZE members; BRIIZE's support, who have been RIIZE's biggest source of strength in that journey; And RIIZE and BRIIZE value the time spent together.
We made this decision after debating for a long time because we thought that if Seunghan comes back after reflecting on his past wrongdoings and RIIZE shows another level of growth as a group, we will be able to give artists and fans more joy.
However, after announcing his comeback, we carefully considered every comment and feedback sent by fans and we realized that our decision actually hurt fans more and instead caused them more confusion.
At the same time, Seungan has consistently expressed his desire to leave the group for the sake of the members and fans.
To respect the artist's decision, we are announcing Seunghan's departure from RIIZE instead of joining the team.
We will support Seunhan in the future so that he can showcase his talents and pursue his dreams.
Above all, we sincerely apologize for causing trouble and confusion to the six members who have always thought of the fans since their debut, and who made today's RIIZE possible with more thought and effort than anyone else. at every moment.
We will continue to do our best to support RIIZE members so that they can grow further in the future.
Wizard Productions will be careful and cautious in all future matters, and we will work hard so that RIIZE and BRIIZE can be happy together for a long time.
