Initially a 12-member act, leader Yu Jun Won didn’t debut with the group following his dispute with Pocketdol Studios. According to Jun Won, instead of editing some unfavorable clauses in the contract, Pocketdol Studios instead attempted to force an agreement after adding more ridiculous demands.
Despite no longer pushing through with the group, Jun Won still asked fans to continue their support for the 11 members of FANTASY BOYS.
Now, FANTASY BOYS is only made up of members Hikari, Hikaru, Hong Sung Min, Kaeden, Kang Min Seo, Kim Gyu Rae, Kim Woo Seok, KSoul, Lee Han Bin, Lingqi, and Oh Hyeon Tae.
As of writing, it remains unclear whether member Hikaru will join activities for the group’s November comeback as he’s on hiatus. In October, the group announced that Hikaru is taking a break due to poor health.
