"Hello, this is Yuehua Entertainment.

We would like to tell you about the future activities of TEMPEST and Hwarang.

We have been holding in-depth discussions with Hwarang regarding future activities and career paths. After careful consideration, we mutually agreed to conclude his activities as TEMPEST member and terminate his exclusive contract.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all the fans who have supported Hwarang so far. We ask for your continued support for Hwarang's future moves ahead of its new start, and we will also sincerely support Hwarang's future.

We plan to take strong action against the spread of false facts and speculations about our artists, and we ask for your interest and love for TEMPEST, who will be greeting you through Road to Kingdom.

*** He's not withdrawing because he went to the club. When he was caught clubbing, the company issued an apology and prepared for a comeback. After 2 weeks, they overturned the decision and issued a notice to suspend activities. After 5 months, he withdrew.

"Hello, this is Yuehua Entertainment.

We would like to comment regarding the artist Hwarang’s personal life that was spread through social media.

We would like to sincerely apologize for causing concern to fans who were concerned due to the actions of our artist, Hwarang.

The content spread on social media is different from the truth, and Hwarang is deeply reflecting on visiting that location.

We have pledged not to repeat the same behavior, and our company and the artist, Hwarang, will take special care to prevent such behavior from recurring.

We deeply apologize once again for causing concern to fans and TEMPEST members ahead of their comeback."

The notice they released just 2 weeks later

"Hello, this is Yuehua Entertainment.

We will inform you about TEMPEST's future activities.

Hwarang has been holding in-depth discussions with the company regarding its future activities in response to issues related to personal privacy that have recently become known through social media.

In this process, member Hwarang was unable to regain trust, and we judged that it would be difficult to continue activities as a full team under these circumstances.

Accordingly, after careful consideration, we have decided to temporarily suspend member Hwarang’s activities.

Therefore, TEMPEST 5th MINI ALBUM [TEMPEST Voyage] activities will be conducted with 6 members, excluding Hwarang. We ask for your understanding in advance that there may be some Hwarang filming limited to pre-shooting and production cases, and we would like to apologize once again for any inconvenience caused to fans with the sudden news.

Please refrain from baseless speculation and indiscriminate criticism, and please give warm support and encouragement to TEMPEST members who are preparing for [TEMPEST Voyage] activities.

We will also do our best to support TEMPEST.

thank you"

1. Huh? Isn't he a popular member?

2. Hul so they're withdrawing him?

3. He's a rookie, if he's going to the club like that, there's no need for the company to keep him

4. Do you really think they'd withdraw him just for going to the club? Of course there must've been something that happened for this

5. I'm sure it's not the clubbing, there must be another reason

6. It's not the clubbing, there has to be something else

7. I feel like there must've been something else...

8. HYBE should do the same

9. Rookies are allowed to go to the club, this is a bit too harsh
