After a hiatus due to a scandal, Seunghan is confirmed to be returning as a member of the Kpop group RIIZE. The boy group from SM Entertainment now has seven members as before. RIIZE's Seunghan stumbled into controversy ahead of his debut. 

The public was shocked by an intimate photo of Seunghan kissing his girlfriend at a hotel. According to the person who spread the photo, Seunghan also committed violence, cheated on his girlfriend, and took advantage of her financially.

The Memories singer was also reported to have forced his ex-girlfriend to have an abortion. A number of Korean netizens thought that SM Entertainment would cancel Seunghan RIIZE's debut last year. However, he was still included along with Wonbin, Eunseok, Sohee, Anton, Seungchan, and Seungtaro.

Once again, Korean netizens are furious because RIIZE's Seunghan was caught doing an Instagram live with his girlfriend. A video of him smoking in between group activities in Japan has also been circulating. SM Entertainment finally took decisive action and decided that RIIZE would be active as a six-member group for the time being. 

Meanwhile, Seunghan will be on hiatus to reflect on his mistakes. After almost a year, SM Entertainment finally announced Seunghan's status as a member of the K-pop group RIIZE. Seunghan is confirmed to return to activities starting in November after reflecting on his mistakes.

"To BRIIZE who love RIIZE. Hello, this is Wizard Productions, RIIZE's producer. We would like to inform fans about Seunghan's comeback and the direction of RIIZE's activities. As you know, it has been about 10 months since Seunghan took a hiatus from his group activities due to personal issues before his debut."

"Seunghan has acknowledged that his past actions were wrong and he has been reflecting on them with regret towards his members and fans, halting his activities for almost a year. We also realized that Seunghan's behavior was inappropriate for an artist so we spent a long time thinking about when he should resume his activities."

"Seunghan has been working hard to improve his abilities even during his hiatus and we hope you will continue to watch over him warmly as he has more to show you in the future," SM Entertainment said in an official statement on, Friday October 11, 2024.

The news of Seunghan's return as a member of the K-pop group RIIZE has sparked anger among Korean netizens. Not a few also think that RIIZE only has six members. "I honestly don't understand what SM is thinking, this person's image will stick to RIIZE in the future... 

And this fandom is already used to OT6," commented a netizen on a Korean community forum. " Ah, it's so funny... RIIZE fans really got into trouble, what is this?" said a netizen. "That was really posted on their official account? Wow, I'm a fan of another group and I can't believe this," wrote another netizen who opposed RIIZE's Seunghan return.
