IST Entertainment issues a statement after the departure of VICTON’s Heo Chan.
The agency thanked fans who cared for the group in their message. The agency also apologized to fans for “provoking distress” with the unexpected revelation and pleaded for their patience. Following last month’s scandal, IST Entertainment announced that Heo Chan would be leaving the group. The group will currently be active with six members: Seungwoo, Seungsik, Sejun, Hanse, Byungchan, and Soobin. However, since Seungwoo is now serving in the military, the group will be promoted to five members for the time being.
The band is preparing for their forthcoming event, the 2022 VICTON FAN CONCERT [CHRONICLE], they said. IST Entertainment has also sought fans’ help since the members have been working hard to deliver a spectacular performance for their fans.
VICTON supporters were moved to tears by the singer’s choice.
As soon as the news of Heo Chan’s departure from the group became public, VICTON fans went to social media to share their feelings and opinions. While fans have varied viewpoints on whether or not it was the proper thing to do, the bulk of them has expressed their emotions about it. Some admirers have also said that they appreciate the K-pop idol’s choice to quit the group.
Meanwhile, numerous admirers are revisiting his finest VICTON videos and moments, arguing that he will always be a part of the group.

He also posted an apologetic letter in which he expressed his regret for his acts.
I expected this outcome to be honest.I respect it, I really do.But I’m still heartbroken to say the least.
