The move comes after mutual discussions with their former agency regarding the members’ future activities with ZEROBASEONE. With shared understanding about the artists’ next chapter, they decided to make a fresh start at WAKEONE.
Throughout the talks, WAKEONE closely reviewed the two artists’ future direction and growth potential, and finalized the transfer based on that trust and alignment.
