Loona member Haseul left a meaningful message at the fan cafe. Since Chu is about to return as an 11-member group after being kicked from the team, the focus is on the background.
On the 15th, LOONA Haseul published an article about the fancafe and wrote, “It’s already been six years. I hope I can always be a great source of strength for the fans, but more and more I seem to see only my shortcomings.”
He said, “I’m so grateful and sorry for the fans to cover this up with love. I don’t know what else to say. In this situation, I think the only thing I can tell you is that I love you.”
He added, “I think the fans will know that I can’t say anything right now. I hope one day this moment will remain a memory and we can talk face to face with a smile.”
Loona will be back on January 3 next year amidst the situation that member Chu was released from the team.
Last month, Blockberry Creative said, “We have decided to remove Chu as a member of Loona and leave,” and cited “Chuu’s abuse of power” over staff as the reason.
However, later, the author of the web entertainment program “Keep Chuu” and team member Hyunjin expressed their support for Chuu, and public opinion against the agency increased. Chuu has not yet released a clear statement on the matter.
