Fans of Kep1er received a mix of relief and uncertainty as their agency clarified ongoing discussions regarding the group’s potential contract extension. Amid swirling rumors of the Kep1er disbandment, WAKEONE Entertainment has finally issued an official statement.

WAKEONE Addresses Possible Kep1er Disbandment

STARNEWS reported on April 25 that discussions to extend Kep1er’s contracts had hit an impasse, leading to speculation about their impending dissolution in July. Allegedly, the group intended to bid farewell to their fans through a final album and a poignant farewell concert.

In response, WAKEONE, the agency behind Kep1er, moved swiftly to address the concerns, affirming that negotiations were still underway with each member and their respective agencies regarding the extension of the group’s activities. Moreover, they assured fans that Kep1er was actively preparing for a new album, urging for continued support to ensure the group’s return with quality music.

This development comes on the heels of previous statements from WAKEONE in early April, where they expressed optimism about extending the group’s contract, signaling a positive trajectory for Kep1er’s future. The group, comprised of nine talented members, originally emerged from Mnet’s “Girls Planet 999” survival audition program and made their debut in January 2022 under a temporary contract with WAKEONE, slated for a two-and-a-half-year promotion period.

As fans eagerly await further updates, the uncertainty surrounding Kep1er’s future underscores the complexities of the entertainment industry and the delicate balance between artistic aspirations and contractual obligations. Despite the challenges, supporters remain hopeful for a positive resolution that will allow Kep1er to continue captivating audiences with their music and performances for years to come.

For now, a possible Kep1er comeback date has not yet been officially announced by WAKEONE. However, fans are hoping that the girl group will release new music before the end of the year. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
