Jungle Entertainment has told allkpop that Leessang members Gary and Gil have decided to end their hiatus from variety shows.

Gary and Gil announced earlier this week that they would be leaving SBS’ ‘Running Man‘ and MBC‘s ’Infinity Challenge‘, respectively, after the cancellation of the ‘Super 7‘ concert.

Leessang released the following statement:

“Hello, all. This is Leessang. Firstly, we sincerely thank all of you who have made us more mature through your encouragement and scolding. We found it too difficult to withstand the names ‘Leessang’, which we’ve worked hard on for the past 10 years, and ‘Leessang Company’, which we’ve started with hopeful ambition, being [put in a negative light], and so we decided to leave the variety industry in order to focus more on our music and concerts. However, because of us, many people were getting hurt, and more than that, we didn’t want to burden our members, who’ve always been loyal and stayed beside us; though we’re ashamed and sorry, we’ll be returning to the programs. We’ll give more music, concerts, and laughs to everyone with a better attitude. Rather than asking you to trust us, we’ll work our hardest so you can. We’ll pay you back. -posted by Leessang (Gary & Gil).”

Gil will be participating in this week’s filming of ‘Infinity Challenge’ on September 29, while Gary will be present for the October 1st filming of ‘Running Man’.

Don't feel ashamed Gary and Gil, I find there's a lack of respect on part of the producers to basically stop shooting the shows to get them back on variety but they're both so great that you can't complain.

yayyy so glad they both change their mind..
yeah it might be difficult at first but the situation would be so much worse if the just running away and leave things behind which would harder to gain back trust..
both of them please be brave, they have many friends by their side<3
im sure MC Yoo don't want to see another god friend of his leaving again like HoDong^^;

I feel like they were forced to come back. Both of them aren't the type of people to just carelessly declare "we're leaving!" without seriously meaning it, plus I think they've been thinking about leaving their respective shows for a while now. I'm happy yet sad at the same time.

yeah I feel bad for Gary.. the last couple of episodes he's had a tension strap on for his back and he's been unable to do much. He's probably done something to his back but can't get the proper rest time for it.

When Running Man canceled it's recording I knew they were trying to get Gary back...frankly the whole situation was incredibly unfair and makes me want to smack netizens more than usual.

What did the netizens say, i hope they didn't say they were being ungrateful for concentrating on their music.

Wow. hold on. one second.
Can somebody explain to me what the hell is going on here?
Why where they leaving? I know about Gary's back problems, but is there something else?

Okay I read the articles.

So apparently due to the MBC strikes Infinity Challenge has been off air for a while, and so the members decided to get together and hold a concert for all the fans that have waited for the shows return. But it was a private concert and not held by MBC so the members were going to hold the concert with their own money under the Leessang company. But netizens started a bash fest claiming the prices were too high, they were being taken advantage off, bashing Gil especially. It led to the concert being cancelled and Gil and Gary withdrawing from variety.

MBC have held IC concerts in the past but they were free, the anger started from there, but this wasn't an MBC concert. But regardless the Netizens typically behave like animals with crappy "take responsibility" comments.

Netizens alwats act like animals, they forget idols (or artists or basically anyone who is famous) are people as well.
They should have looked for more information then they would know it was not organized by MBC, sigh oh netizens..

A+ gif OP :)

I'm happy they're coming back, Running Man really wouldn't have been the same without Gary. I think IF would have been ok because they've had member changes before and gone on to be fine.

While I have been super worried about Gary's back lately(especially in last week's episode) and have been so angry about the situation in general, I'm glad that Gary's coming back ;_;

He's one of the best running men and tbh, I love all of them and still miss SJK being on and never want this show to end OTL

whew, i'm glad we didn't lose gary. he really was my favorite, the hilarious underdog who's good at unexpected things.
that being said, he shouldn't have to force himself if shooting puts any physical strain on his body.
