As the fallout from Heeseung’s departure from ENHYPEN continues, fans keep making shocking discoveries.
Heeseung
After his departure, Heeseung announced he would not be attending ENHYPEN’s upcoming performance in Melbourne, though other schedules were yet to be determined. This only served to encourage ongoing protests, which have included in-person gatherings and protest trucks sent to HYBE.

Heeseung’s fan-sign event was also announced to be rescheduled; however, fans have noticed that a new fan-sign event was recently announced.
YZY posted a fan event notice for a new fansign, with purchases available from March 13-18. Along with this information, Heeseung was made available as an option.
This means that Heeseung is still being sold as an ENHYPEN member and will be attending the event scheduled for April 6, though the other ENHYPEN members are scheduled for March 26.
Netizens have reacted strongly, calling the newly announced event cruel, placing blame on both the company and the idol.
- Does having a contract make it a free pass? If there were still company contracts left, then he especially shouldn’t have left the group lol. That’s seriously so messed up to the fans.
- No but… if this was going to happen, shouldn’t he just not have left the group in the first place? What is this?
- But in that case, wouldn’t it have been better to just finish the scheduled activities he already had and then quit?
- Wow… they really see fans as nothing but ATM machines and complete suckers.
Fans reacted differently, calling out just the company for its actions.
