Hwon was added to The KingDom in 2022 following the departure of debut member Chiwoo. Last year, Hwon was first accused of ghosting an anonymous account after having sex and working at a host bar after debut.
The idol was also accused of sharing lovestagrams with an alleged girlfriend.
We wish Hwon the best in his future endeavors.
