7 Kep1er Members Officially Extend Contracts + Mashiro And Yeseo To Conclude Activities With Group

Kep1er will be continuing activities as a seven-member group.

Kep1er is a nine-member girl group formed through Mnet’s survival audition program “Girls Planet 999” that debuted in January 2022. Following the conclusion of the show, they signed an exclusive contract as a temporary group that would promote for two and a half years.

Ahead of the girl group’s contract expiration, it was confirmed on May 30 that seven members excluding Mashiro and Yeseo will extend their activities with the group.

Read the official statement below:

Hello, this is WAKEONE and SWING Entertainment.

We are pleased to announce that the company and members of Mnet’s project group Kep1er—Yujin, Xiaoting, Chaehyun, Dayeon, Hikaru, Huening Bahiyyih, and Youngeun—have agreed to renew the contract to extend group promotions.

Thus, Kep1er will continue promotions as a seven-member group after the project term has expired.

As a result of extensive discussion and consensus, Mashiro and Yeseo will conclude their activities as Kep1er after the scheduled upcoming concert.

We are sincerely grateful to Mashiro and Yeseo for their dedication and hard work over the past two and a half years as Kep1er, and we promise to support their future endeavors invariably.

WAKEONE and SWING Entertainment will also proactively support the musical growth of each member, the remaining overseas promotions including the concert in Japan in July and the local promotions for the first and the last studio album as a nine-member group. We sincerely ask for your continuous love and support.

Thank you.

Congratulations to Kep1er, and best of luck to Mashiro and Yeseo on their new beginnings!
