The group Purple Kiss, which debuted as the 'younger sister of Mamamoo,' announced the end of their group activities after four years.
On the 4th, the agency RBW announced through their official website, "We would like to convey our official position regarding Purple Kiss's group activities and future plans. In November, Purple Kiss will end their group activities."
On that day, the agency noted, "As we were deeply sincere about the group, we and the members have seriously discussed for a long time how to envision the future. As a result, we reached a conclusion in a mindset of respecting each other's opinions and valuing our individual dreams."
They added, "Although the group activities will come to an end, we plan to proceed with the scheduled activities without any hitches to repay the support and love you have given us so far. In the future, Purple Kiss plans to engage with the fans from Flori during the remaining time, starting with the release of an English album at the end of August, followed by promotions in Japan, a tour in the Americas, and a concert in Korea."
The agency expressed gratitude to the members, stating, "We have shared countless moments with Purple Kiss. We extend our thanks to the six members who have brought light to Purple Kiss over the years."
They continued, "Although there were clumsy and imperfect days, every moment shone because of the members who passionately supported each other and all the Floris who always cheered for us from the same place. We deeply thank all the Floris who have loved Purple Kiss with warm eyes once again."
Meanwhile, Purple Kiss debuted as a seven-member group on March 2021, but after the departure of Park Ji-eun the following year, they continued to perform as a six-member group consisting of Na Go-eun, Do Shi, Lee Re, Yuki, Chae In, and Su An.
On the 16th of last month, Purple Kiss, who had been actively promoting by releasing their second single album 'I Miss My...' will part ways at the end of this year.
