Hyeyeon Announces Departure From Gugudan Due To Personal Reasons

gugudan‘s Hyeyeon has decided to leave the group for personal reasons, including ongoing health issues.

On October 25th, Jellyfish Entertainment revealed that the young idol would be leaving the group. The label stated that numerous conversations have been held about her future since she decided to take a hiatus due to health concerns. While on her hiatus that began in May of this year, she also began to focus more on her studies. Due to these two concerns and additional thoughts about her future, the combination of all these things led to the ultimate decision to leave the group. The label went on to reveal that Hyeyeon will still be affiliated with their company, but she will no longer be a member of gugudan.

Shortly thereafter, the singer released a handwritten letter to fans to notify them of her decision and thank them for their support until now. She made it clear that she would still be supporting gugudan now as a “Dear Friend” (gugudan’s fandom) and that her time with the group was precious and something she would never forget.

She also went on to express her hopes of meetings fans again in the future, but clarified that she will still be focusing on her health and studies for now.

We wish Hyeyeon continued healing with her health issues and the best of luck in her studies!
