[pearlychoco.livejournal.com]

BIGSTAR will be going their separate ways after seven years.

On July 1, their agency shared the following statement:

Hello. This is Brave Entertainment.

First of all, we sincerely thank the fans who cherish and love the group BIGSTAR.

Brave Entertainment’s exclusive contracts with BIGSTAR members Feeldog, Sunghak, and Jude expire in July.

Ahead of their contract expirations, the members have continuously had discussions about their future activities. After careful consideration, the agreement was made to officially conclude BIGSTAR activities after seven years along with their contract expirations.

However, we are still discussing future activities with the members who have time left on their contracts due to their military service.

We express gratitude to Feeldog, Sunghak, and Jude who are leaving the agency, and we will sincerely cheer on their paths ahead.

We sincerely thank the fans within and outside of Korea who have sent lots of love and support to BIGSTAR over the past seven years. We ask that you show warm interest and support for the BIGSTAR members who have new starts ahead.

BIGSTAR debuted in 2012 with the single “BIGSTART,” and their most recent album was “SHINE A MOON LIGHT” in 2015. Four of the members competed on the survival program “The Unit,” and Feeldog also promoted with the final group UNB.

I like Feeldog, hoping to see him more in the future!

I didn't really know much about them until The Unit, but I saw how hard they worked on that show. I remember Jude later had a mixtape song where one part of the lyrics was "spent all my youth in Brave". Being an idol group might not have worked out for them but I wish them the best on their future paths.

Feeldog is such a talented dancer, I hope he can continue in the field, if not dancing himself maybe choreographing. He also does a whole bunch of other things like composing songs and painting so I hope to still hear about him from time to time.

Full Moon Shine remains a jam:

this group had potential and i feel bad for feeldog..he's gone on programs at least Twice practically begging for a comeback. anyway brave entertainment contiues to be a shit company and is further proof that just because you've had some good songs doesn't mean you should have a company...


who do they have left now that samuel's gone, bigstar is disbanding, and i don't think brave girls is even a thing anymore??

This makes me so sad. I stumbled across Big Star in 2013 when they did Standing Alone. Then I went back and listened to all of their songs. I probably listen to all of their songs monthly, some of them just for fun and give me a pickup, and other times just because the songs are so good. I really hope Feeldog gets to do more he is so talented and he is an amazing dancer. I really will miss them. I wish Brave Brothers would of given them more comebacks and better promoted them!.

Thank You Big Star for Run Run, Hot Boy, Standing Alone, Full Moon Shine, Thinking of U, Forget U, Love with You, I know I must be missing more but I really do love these. I probably know the Dance Practice for Standing Alone and Full Moon Shine off the top of my head!

Their songs were so good, and they were such a wholesome bunch of guys tbh, I met them so many times living in Seoul and they were always such friendly, supportive people u_u they really worked so hard so I hope things work out for them!
