YG Entertainment announced on Treasure Weverse on the 8th, “We have terminated our exclusive contract after a long discussion with Mashiho and Bang Ye-dam.”
YG Entertainment explained, “Mashiho needs to recover for health reasons, and in the case of Bang Ye-dam, he made the decision to create an environment where he can grow as a producer with his own music color.”
YG Entertainment added, “In the future, Treasure will reorganize the team into a 10-member system of Choi Hyun-seok, Ji-hoon, Yoshi, Jun-kyu, Yoon Jae-hyuk, Asahi, Doyoung, Haruto, Park Jung-woo, and So Jung-hwan.”
◆ YG Entertainment’s official position
Hello, we’re YG ENTERTAINMENT.
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to TREASURE MAKERs who are sending great love to TREASURE, and I would like to inform you about TREASURE’s future activities as follows.
In the future, Treasure will reorganize the team into a 10-member system of Choi Hyun-seok, Ji-hoon, Yoshi, Jun-kyu, Yoon Jae-hyuk, Asahi, Doyoung, Haruto, Park Jung-woo, and So Jung-hwan. After a long discussion with MASHIHO and BANG YE DAM, the exclusive contract was terminated.
Mashiho needs to recover sufficiently for health reasons, and in the case of Bang Ye-dam, he made the decision to create an environment where he can grow as a producer with his own music color.
We knew that our fans were waiting for MASHIHO and BANG YE DAM’s return, and we are also very disappointed as the two of them were together to start TREASURE. However, please encourage and support Mashiho and Bang Ye-dam, who had more concerns than anyone else.
YG will continue to communicate with TREASURE MAKERs and do its best to promote TREASURE.
