ENHYPEN And Heeseung’s New Schedule Sparks Major Fan Backlash

ENHYPEN is facing backlash after a new schedule announcement involving Heeseung sparked major fan anger amid his departure from the group.
The controversy began when a fancall event was announced for ENHYPEN’s latest album. The schedule listed “ENHYPEN / Heeseung” separately, rather than including Heeseung as part of the group. This move shocked fans, especially since Heeseung’s exit from ENHYPEN was confirmed and widely discussed.
Fans quickly reacted online, frustrated by BELIFT LAB’s handling of the situation. Many pointed out the contradiction of removing Heeseung from the group but still including him in group-related promotions—only as a solo act. This decision has left fans confused and angry, suspecting the company’s motives are purely financial.
The backlash grew as fans expressed how unfair and strange it is for Heeseung to participate in group schedules alone, especially when statements have made it clear he will not be rejoining ENHYPEN.
‘attending artist: enhypen / heeseung’… yeah no, i’m not just sad anymore, i’m genuinely pissed. the way they’re handling this is so deliberate and frustrating, and it really shows just how incompetent and aggravating this company is. like how do you manage to make everything…

it really doesn’t make sense like what’s the point of taking him out of the group but still making him do group schedules but doing it solo and separated from the members? it’s so weird and unfair. this whole situation just feels like torture for both engenes and enhypen

with every statement they release, they make it clear as water that heeseung is no longer a part of enhypen.
and yet, they are still making him go through group promotions by himself. it’s not even sad at this point but just pure frustration.
outcasting him already as a solo…

As the situation unfolded, fans remain upset over BELIFT LAB’s approach, criticizing the company for what they see as a mishandling of Heeseung’s departure and ongoing involvement in ENHYPEN’s activities.
The controversy continues to grow as fans demand clearer communication and fair treatment for Heeseung and the group.
