ENHYPEN’s Initial Response After Heeseung’s Exit Sparks Significant Controversy

ENHYPEN is facing backlash over their first message after Heeseung left the group.

It shocked fans when Heeseung’s departure was announced. The group’s official X account posted a message on March 10 (KST) after the news.

But fans and netizens weren’t buying it. Many think the message wasn’t from the members themselves. Instead, they suspect a BE:LIFT staffer wrote it to control the damage.

Critics pointed to how the message was written, the timing, and the ongoing negative reactions among fans. Some say the way it was shared doesn’t match ENHYPEN’s usual style.

Netizens doubt the members would use X (formerly Twitter), suggesting Weverse or other channels would be more likely if they really wrote it.
