Kim Root reacted surprised at SEENROOT's disbandment news.
On May 1, SEENROOT's agency announced the duo decided to walk their own paths following their contract termination.
Vocalist Shin Hyun Hee personally wrote to fans about SEENROOT's disbandment on her Instagram and shared she will be promoting as a solo artist Shin Hyun Hee from now on.
Fellow member Kim Root seemed to have not been aware of the disbandment as he expressed frustration on his Instagram. He stated,
"Our contract with the agency has been terminated but I was waiting to greet fans as SEENROOT sometime in the future. I wanted to say that rather than disbanding, we will temporarily walk our individual paths and come back. However, I'm a bit baffled by the news stating SEENROOT is disbanding. As I was receiving treatment for my anxiety disorder and depression, I was looking forward to the day we will be performing, but I can no longer look forward to that. I'm very regretful and sorry to my fans." He ended the post, stating, "Please give much support to singer-songwriter Shin Hyun Hee who will be promoting solo."
SEENROOT is the duo behind the quirky hit "Sweet Heart."
That's really a shame. I hope there was miscommunication between the label and artist[s] rather than the label just not caring what the artists' thoughts were. Hopefully he gets better and can perform again!
