Hello, this is Wizard Production.

First of all, we sincerely apologize for the pain and confusion caused to the BRIIZEcommunity due to the announcement of Seunghwan's return on the 11th. We regret that we prioritized the production's stance over the growth achieved by the six members of RIIZE, which was made possible through the invaluable support of BRIIZE, and the precious moments shared between RIIZE and BRIIZE.

We believed that if Seunghwan could return after reflecting on his past mistakes, RIIZE could grow as a team once again, bringing greater happiness to both the artists and fans. This decision was made after long contemplation. However, upon reflecting on the opinions and reactions from fans following the announcement, we realized that our decision has instead caused even greater confusion and pain.

At the same time, Seunghwan has expressed his intention to leave the team for the sake of the members and fans. We respect the artist's decision and announce that Seunghwan will be departing from RIIZE, rather than rejoining. We will support him in pursuing his talents and dreams.

Moreover, we sincerely apologize to the six members of RIIZE, who have consistently given their all since their debut, putting in immense effort and thought to bring the group to where it is now, and for the difficulties and confusion they have faced as well. We will continue to support the RIIZE members in their growth in every way possible.

Wizard Production will exercise caution in all future matters and strive to create a lasting time of happiness for both RIIZE se and the BRIIZE community.

- Kim Hyung-kook, Lee Sang-in
