The New MADEIN: Meet the 4 Members 🌟
Despite the challenges, the remaining members are determined to continue their journey. The official 4-member lineup consists of:
- MiU (Limetless potential & Visuals)
- Mashiro (Leader & Experienced Performer)
- Serina (Performance & Charm)
- Nagomi (Vocal & Energy)
The agency stated, "We ask for your warm support for the four members who have stayed to protect the name of MADEIN."
What Happened? The Timeline of Departures
The transition from seven to four members was painful for many fans. Here is a summary of the departures that occurred between late 2024 and 2025.
1. Gaeun's Departure (Nov 2024)
The first major shock came in November 2024. Gaeun left the group amidst serious allegations of sexual harassment against the agency's CEO. This incident sparked a massive boycott and concern among fans regarding the safety of the members.
2. Suhye's Hiatus & Exit (May 2025)
In May 2025, Suhye announced a hiatus due to personal reasons and health issues. Unfortunately, she did not return to the group and officially parted ways.
3. Yeseo's Departure (2025)
Following Suhye, Yeseo, a key member known for her fandom support (formerly of Kep1er), also decided to leave the group in 2025, finalizing the group's restructuring.
Future Outlook for 2026
With the lineup now fixed, MADEIN is planning a fresh start. They are expected to focus on global activities, leveraging the Japanese popularity of members like Mashiro, MiU, Serina, and Nagomi.
Fans are hoping that the agency provides a stable environment for the remaining members to shine without further controversy.
