JAKARTA - Hangyul from the group BAE173 ended his exclusive contract with PocketDol Studio agency. Their contract ended after a decade since Hangyul joined.
"Our exclusive contract with Hangyul will end on February 28. It was a beautiful journey as we spent 10 years together and watched each other's development," PocketDol Studio said in their statement on Wednesday, February 11.
"We are grateful to Hangyul for his dedication and doing his best. Even though our exclusive contract is over, we will fully support Hangyul's future activities," he said.
PocketDol Studio CEO Kim Kwang Soo also gave a statement saying, "Hangyul is a friend who stands by our side, whether the company is in good or bad condition, even if good or bad things happen."
"I've watched many artists for over 41 years, but it's not easy to find someone like Hangyul who shows his sincerity. He's a good friend, so I'll support him as he starts a new step," he said.
Hangyul joined PocketDol agency as a trainee and debuted with the group IM in 2017. Then, he participated in the competition show The Unit.
His popularity began to arise when he joined Produce X 101 and became the last member to enter the X1 project group. Less than a year after debuting, the show was embroiled in controversy, leading to X1's disbandment before the contract ended.
Hangyul then went on to promote as a unit of H&D with Nam Dohyon until he debuted as a member of BAE173 in November 2020.
