Girl group Source Music G-FRIEND reportedly disbanded because they failed to agree on a contract extension with the agency. According to an exclusive report from Tenasia, the G-FRIEND members will be separating because they did not renew their contracts with Source Music.
Nothing else was shared in the Tenasia report. Regarding the shocking report, Source Music finally opened their voices to give their official statement. Source Music has announced that G-FRIEND will indeed leave the company after they were unable to agree to a contract extension.
Source Music made the announcement via their statement to media outlets, sharing that they agreed to part ways and support the members as they continue their future endeavors. The following reads a statement from the agency:
"Hello. This is Source Music. Exclusive artist contracts with G-FRIEND and Source Music will be completed on May 22. After careful consideration and extensive discussion, G-FRIEND and Source Music have reached an agreement to follow separate paths to sustainable growth.
Over the past six years, GFRIEND has won the boundless love of K-pop fans through various concepts, performances, and songs that mark a new generation of girl groups and music. We would like to sincerely and wholeheartedly thank G-FRIEND for allowing Source Music to accompany them on their journey.
We would like to sincerely thank all BUDDY (G-FRIEND's fan name) and fans who have shown your love for GFRIEND. We ask that you give the members unchanging love and support as they begin their adventures in new and diverse areas.
Source Music will always continue to support the members as they take their first steps towards new beginnings. Thank you."
Even though it has confirmed that it has parted ways with the girl group, Source Music has still not commented on whether G-FRIEND will remain as a group or be disbanded. G-FRIEND debuted in 2015 and have grown into one of Korea's top girl groups due to their myriad of concept styles and skills.
They also gained a lot of fans all over the world because of their strong and super synchronous choreography. The girl group last made a comeback with their third studio album entitled "Walpurgis Night" on November 9th. The album was released that day along with the music video for the lead single "Mago".
