Ravn of OneUs left the team, announced agency RBW Entertainment on Thursday.

He chose to quit as he did not want to further cause damage to his bandmates and fans, and after careful deliberation with all the members including Ravn, the company has decided to respect the decision, it said in a statement.

Rumors have been circulating online as someone claiming to be his ex-girlfriend said that he cheated during their relationship, and verbally abused her when confronted. This also dug up allegations that he had asked fans for “gifts” via the band’s online communications platform.

The agency said that there are false claims and malicious pieces of misinformation in the rumor, and that it will take legal actions to get the facts straight. The six-member act will reorganise into a five-member group.

Ravn debuted as a member of OneUs in 2019. The band released its eighth EP Malus last month and is slated to hold concerts in Seoul next week and tour Japan and the US next month. – The Korea Herald/Asia News Network
