fromis_9 starts anew as quintet, keeps name
Five members of fromis_9 signaled a new beginning Wednesday via the new agency ASND.
The company uploaded a teaser trailer including a 'We Miss You' message as well as photographs of each member dressed in black.
The girl group fromis_9 parted ways with Pledis Entertainment when their contracts ended in December 2024. Five members of the eight-member act signed with the new management company in February but hinted that they were struggling to keep the group name as late as mid-March. However, they managed to reach an agreement recently, said ASND, thanking Pledis Entertainment.
The group debuted in 2018 as a nonet formed through an audition show, and member Jang Gyuri left in 2022 to pursue an acting career. Lee Saerom, Lee Seoyeon and Roh Jisun decided to go separate ways after performing the track 'Supersonic' together for the last time on a year-end music show last year.
