"We sincerely thank every fan who has watched over and supported the talents' activities," Cover Corporation stated. "It is because of your cheers that the talents were able to come this far. We sincerely wish that the talents who have chosen new paths will have brilliant futures ahead."

The announcement represents one of the largest talent departures in HOLOSTARS history, though the company emphasized that the decisions were made through mutual agreement with each talent regarding their personal life goals and career visions.

Fans are encouraged to support the departing talents during their remaining streaming periods and to continue supporting the six members who will carry HOLOSTARS forward.
