On December 3, C9 Entertainment officially released a statement regarding cignature‘s disbandment.
The agency posted the unfortunate news on the group’s official fan cafe.
“Hello, this is C9 Entertainment. We are here to inform you of our artist, cignature. After talking with the members, we have confirmed that the team disbandment is needed.
With this, all seven members have officially ended their exclusive contracts as of November 30, 2024, regardless of the remaining contract period.
Despite all the obstacles they have faced up until now, we would like to thank the members once again for their best efforts.
We are truly sorry for bringing such sudden news to the fans who cherished the group. We hope you can continue to send warm support to the members in their future endeavors. Thank you.”

While many fans left messages of support for the girls…
…others revealed that they expected this to come and that it was for the better.
as a fan of many years, i think it’s a really good decision since all what has been happening for the past two years is mistreatment and sexualization of the members, as much as it sucks honestly i think it’s for the best, thank you cignature you were the best 💜 https://t.co/cZPMPxyBqI

이미 싸인팬들은 어느정도 마음의 준비는 하고 있었어요. 아, 결국은 왔구나… 하는 생각이 들어요. 패니들은 언제나 7명 모두 행복하길 바라. 힘들었던 내 시간을 행복으로 채워줘서 고마워. 애정을 들인 그 시간, 정말 행복했어. 눈에 더 담을 기회를 찾아갈걸 후회도 들어. 영원해, 우리. https://t.co/sSX8IdVjmM pic.twitter.com/ZavhXnrMu9

Fans already were somewhat prepared for this. Ah, it has finally come. Fans always wish all seven members to be happy. Thanks for filling up my hard times with happiness. I was really happy in those times. I also regret not finding a chance to see you guys more. Let’s be forever.
C9 should accept the fact that you have failed in managing your artists! you are unable to treat your artists properly.
you deceived the fans by claiming that you would support your artists, but in reality, you are unable to do so as you once boasted https://t.co/ln14CwS8sE— 𝓶𝓸𝓸𝓶𝓲𝓷• (@janislists) December 3, 2024
