The activity of TEMPEST's Faran is suspended. YUEHUA Entertainment, to which TEMPEST belongs, announced today (6th) through its official SNS, "Faran has recently deeply discussed with us about his life and future activities known through SNS." "In this process, Faran was unable to regain trust, and we have decided to temporarily suspend Faran's activities. We plan to continue the activities of the 5th mini-album with the remaining six members." "Please understand that only the parts that have been filmed and produced in advance will feature Faran. We apologize again for causing concern to the fans with the sudden announcement." Due to this suspension, he will also withdraw from MBC M's "SHOW CHAMPION," where he joined as an MC on March 21st. He recently mentioned in a video call fan sign event that a fan saw him at a club and admitted to going to the club. In response, the agency posted on TEMPEST's official account on the 20th, "Regarding the private life of Faran circulated on SNS. The content circulated on SNS is different from the facts, and Faran deeply regrets visiting the place in question. In the future, we vow not to repeat the same action, and we and Faran will pay close attention to ensure that such actions do not recur." Faran was born in 2001 and is 22 years old this year. Therefore, many fans showed a reaction that going to a club as an adult is not a problem enough to post an apology. TEMPEST, which debuted in March 2022, will release its 5th mini-album "TEMPEST Voyage" on March 11th. Furthermore, it has been decided that they will make their Japanese debut with the mini-album "BANG!" on April 10th. ・TEMPEST Faran, discussion about club visit...
