Where Are They Now? What Bang Yedam And Mashiho Have Been Up To Since Leaving TREASURE
In 2018, YG Treasure Box aired, introducing fans to the first trainees that would go on to debut as part of TREASURE. The group would officially debut in 2020 with the single album, The First Step: Chapter One.
After it was announced by YG Entertainment that Bang Yedam and Mashiho would take a temporary hiatus from the group, fans were shocked when the pair departed from TREASURE in November 2022, though for different reasons.
Since then, many fans have likely wondered what the two have been doing since departing from the group, and there are updates from both members!
Mashiho originally went on hiatus due to a health condition, also mentioned as reasoning for his contract termination.
After a period of silence, Mashiho finally updated fans, opening a personal Instagram account on his birthday. Since then, he’s shared a few photos of his daily life, including photos with iKON‘s Bobby.
Mashiho also has shared a cover on his account, giving fans hope he may continue in the music industry in the future.

Bang Yedam also opened a personal Instagram account about two months after Mashiho this year. And while the star has only made a few posts…
…he has gone live multiple times, entertaining fans with covers and conversation.

Most excitingly, Yedam has shared that he plans to release an album soon! During an Instagram live at the end of June, Yedam said he would release an album sometime “within this year.”
Ah this, I can’t say when exactly, but I’ll make it happen within this year, and I’m thinking of releasing an album twice this year, if its possible. I’ll hurry and work hard on organizing, preparing and working on an album.

While there haven’t been many updates, Mashiho and Bang Yedam are doing well! We can’t wait to see what the future holds for them and wish them nothing but the best.
