The following notice was shared on CIX’s social media announcing their plans to end promotions.
“Hello. This is C9 Entertainment.
We are making an announcement regarding CIX’s future activities.
CIX, who has spent the past seven years with their fans engaging in various activities after debuting on July 21, 2019, will now be halting their group activities.
Although we repeatedly engaged in serious and in-depth discussions with the members over several months about continuing group activities, everyone ultimately came to the agreement that, at this point in time, halting group activities is unavoidable.”
Despite feeling ‘profound sorrow,’ the members will each be heading off to carry on their own plans. “Accordingly, as of April 30, our exclusive contracts with members BX and Seunghun will end. Additionally, following the decision to halt group activities, member Yonghee voluntarily applied for military enlistment, and after undergoing basic military training at a training center starting on May 11, he will fulfill his military duty in the army as an active-duty soldier.
Yonghee’s exclusive contract will end at the time of his enlistment, and there will be no separate event held on the day of his enlistment. However, we are preparing a small event for Yonghee to say goodbye to his fans before his enlistment, and the details will be announced at a later date through a notice on the fan cafe.
We are providing support for member Hyunsuk so that he can focus on the drama he is currently filming, and accordingly, his exclusive contract will end on May 31.”
The management asked for continued support for the singers in the future, with the hope of returning someday.
