This is the full statement of the Starship Entertainment in regards to Wonho's departure.
Dear All,
First, we would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to all of you who have sent a lot of love to MONSTA X in recent days and over time.
After a long discussion with MONSTA X's member Wonho, we have agreed that it's best to part ways amicably at this point.
We greatly respect Wonho's decision who wants to make sure the recent chain of events doesn't distract from all of the exciting things that are happening for MONSTA X now and what lies ahead in the future. We will continue to hold legal liability for malicious and distorted claims related to this matter.
We apologize greatly for any inconvenience this may have caused to your fans.
Wonho will not attend any schedule from today and MONSTA X will continue with this week's scheduled music broadcast as a six-member band. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to the many involved parties.
We regret to announce this disappointing news, especially to the amazing MONSTA X fans who have always supported and cared for the group. We promise to return with better music and stage for MONSTA X fans.
Sincerely yours,
Starship Entertainment
