Kep1er Start Crying During A Performance For Their Last OT9 Comeback

Kep1er has renewed their contract and will continue as a group, but sadly Mashiro and Yeseo will not be joining them. While the group is on their last comeback as OT9, the members started crying during a recent performance.

On June 11, Kep1er performed their new track “Shooting Star” on The Show.

The broadcast showcased one performance to viewers but those attending the live broadcast saw another one where the members weren’t singing but just dancing without microphones.

While not all netizens could see it, news outlets shared photos from the live performance, and it broke the hearts of fans as the members were crying. As the leader and most experienced idol, netizens sobbed as they saw Yujin bursting into tears while the members were performing on stage.

Youngeun and Xiaoting were also spotted crying during the performance.

It’s clear to see how the members were feeling.

While they were emotional enough, seeing the members finish their performance, all of the members seemed emotional in their own way. In particular, they noticed how Youngeun was taking it hard and made sure to comfort her.

When the photos and news came out, those attending the show shared their anecdotes.

we were in the back holding up signs saying 영원하자 짱플러 (let’s be forever kep1er). when it came to the bridge youngeun started crying and after that all hell broke loose and everyone was bawling. the girls went off stage covering their faces because they were crying so much

Other fans expressed their emotions at seeing the members so emotional. Although seven of the Kep1er members will continue together, it isn’t the same as the OG lineup, and it’s not surprising that fans are emotional.

I can't tell you how painful these tears are. Our leader, who avoids crying in front of the members, could not hold back his tears today. It's very painful to see them like this and think about the future. 😭#최유진 #YUJIN #Kep1er #케플러 pic.twitter.com/tybqSSNYTP

Everyone wanted to see Kep1er continue with all the members, but their bond is as strong as ever.
