Former U-Kiss member Kim Kibum recently confessed his feelings about leaving the team.
"I didn't quit, they canceled my contract," said Kim Kibum in a phone conversation with Newsen on February 23rd. Kibum added, "the agency first told us they are going to replace two members. They demanded me to sign an agreement on canceling my contract, so I did."
Kibum was puzzled about the news that said he had quit the group. "I feel sorry to our fans," said Kibum.
Kibum posted a long tweet to his fans:
That tweet began with, "????? ??? ??, ?? ???? ???? ???? ??????/ Hello, I am U-Kiss Kibum, no, I was U-Kiss Kim Kibum."
Kibum says he didn't voluntarily quit U-Kiss to focus on his Piro Piro character business but was required to sign the contract cancellation agreement and leave the group. Kibum says his business never distracted him from his U-Kiss activites and prioritized U-Kiss over anything else.
"???? ?? ? ???? ???? ??????? ??? ???? ??? ?? ??? ????? ?? ??? ??? ?? ???? ??? ??? ???? ? ???? ???? ???? ???? / I thought of the members like my family...no, more than that. I'm so sad to say good-bye to them like this but I do respect the agency's decision to replace me with someone better."
Kibum thanked his fans and promised that he'll continue to appear on air by himself as both a talent and business man.
This was also the case for member Alexander. "I did leave U-Kiss," said Alexander on the phone with Newsen. "But it wasn't because of school like they stated."
U-Kiss's agency NH Media will be replacing Kim Kibum and Alexander with new members, believing that it will strengthen the group vocals and bring about a change to U-Kiss.
