Lee Heeseung, the eldest member and lead vocalist of K-pop group ENHYPEN, departed the group on March 10 to pursue a solo career. ENHYPEN performed for the first time as a six-member group at the Melbourne Music Festival on March 14. Fans have expressed disappointment and organized protests, including online petitions with over a million signatures, urging the agency BELIFT LAB and HYBE to reverse the decision. However, BELIFT LAB has reaffirmed that Heeseung will not return, citing respect for his artistic direction.
