We are sincerely grateful to Mashiro and Yeseo for their dedication and hard work over the past two and a half years as Kep1er, and we promise to invariably support their future endeavors.
WAKEONE and SWING Entertainment will also proactively support each member’s musical growth, remaining overseas promotions, including the Japan concert in July, and local promotions for the first and last studio albums as a nine-member group. We sincerely ask for your continued love and support.
