Pledis Announced NU’EST to Disband Next Month

Pledis Entertainment announced via HYBE’s Weverse app that KPop Boy Group NU’EST will disband this coming March.

After 10 years in the industry as a group, members JR, Aron, and Ren reportedly won’t renew their contracts with Pledis. While Baekho and Minhyun will renew their respective contracts and stay in Pledis.

Below is the Pledis’ statement today regarding why NU’EST will disband via Allkpop:

NU’EST short for New Established Style Tempo debuted last March 15, 2012, with the single ‘Face’. It was the same song that made them rise to fame. Along with their other songs like Help Me, Love Me, Bet Bet, Inside Out and Call Me Back.

Pledis’ statement also proclaims that the five-member group will release a final album next month as their last tribute to being a group. I am sure the L.O.Λ. Es will still support all the members after NU’EST disbands.

"Leanne or LJ -- as what her friends would like to call her-- is a walking enigma. She loves reading books more than going out, but would if her family drags her out. The limelight was never her spot, and if you look hard enough, you'll find her in a corner enjoying her peace in the shadows of other people's light.
