K‑pop sensation ENHYPEN is moving forward as a six-member group.

Founding member Heeseung announced he’s leaving, and on March 10, 2026, BELIFT LAB confirmed the news on the band’s official channels.

According to the statement, the change came after honest, open conversations between the agency and all the members about the group’s future and Heeseung’s personal goals.

While Heeseung is stepping away from group activities, he isn’t leaving the label but he’ll be staying with BELIFT LAB to pursue his own musical path.

Heeseung, who debuted with ENHYPEN in November 2020 after competing on the survival show I‑LAND, also wrote a heartfelt letter to fans, known as ENGENE.

In it, he reflected on the past six years as some of the most meaningful of his life filled with growth, unforgettable memories, and deep bonds with his fellow members and fans.

Although he’s beginning a new chapter as a solo artist, Heeseung emphasized that his love for ENHYPEN and gratitude for ENGENE will always remain strong.

He thanked fans for their unwavering support and asked them to continue cheering for both his solo journey and the future of ENHYPEN.

BELIFT LAB added that the remaining six members are preparing exciting projects and performances ahead, promising fans that this new era will be filled with fresh energy, creativity, and unforgettable moments.

ENGENE can look forward to seeing ENHYPEN evolve while celebrating Heeseung’s next steps in music.
