ablume Addresses Members’ Decision To Collaborate With The Givers CEO Ahn Sung Il

Following reports that former FIFTY FIFTY members Aran, Saena, and Sio will be working with The Givers CEO Ahn Sung Il (also known as SIAHN) for their upcoming redebut as ablume, both the members and their agency MASSIVE E&C have issued statements addressing the matter.

Previously, MASSIVE E&C revealed that ablume members had personally requested to collaborate with Ahn Sung Il, the CEO of creative content company The Givers. Ahn Sung Il was previously accused of attempting to “poach” the FIFTY FIFTY members in 2023 and faced multiple criminal charges filed by their former agency ATTRAKT, including fraud, embezzlement, forgery, counterfeiting, breach of duty, and obstruction of business.

In response to the controversy, Aran, Saena, and Sio have shared a handwritten letter, while MASSIVE E&C has issued an official statement urging against misinformation.

Their full statements are as follows:
