Matilda has officially disbanded.

On September 11, a source from their agency Box Media Entertainment stated to Star News, “Matilda is disbanding. All members’ contracts have expired.”

Hello, this is Saebyul.

First, the hardest part for me is having to tell our fans this upsetting news.

After giving some thought to it, I have decided to end my contract with the agency.

I thank Box Media, our members, and fans for helping me achieve my dream of being a singer.

I ways very happy thanks to all of our fans who deeply moved me and gave me generous love.

I would like to tell our [member] unnis that I’m thankful for their hard work in leading the maknae, who lacked in many ways.

I promise to proudly return to everyone as an improved version of myself.

Thank you for sending me so much love until now.

Hello. This is Haena.

As of September 11, my contract with Box Media, the agency I have been with for four years, has ended.

I apologize for suddenly announcing this news.

The members of Matilda have chosen to go our own ways, but we will always support and lead each other forward like sisters. I would also like to thank the Box Media’s CEO and everyone else who worked hard for us and allowed us to meet such precious people. I feel sorry and thankful for our fans who always waited for Matilda and cheered us on. Though I am announcing unhappy news today, I will continue to sing, and I promise to work hard to bring good news.

Matilda is a four-member group that debuted in March 2016 with “Macarena.” All four members appeared in KBS2’s idol reboot project “The Unit,” which came to an end in early 2018. The group’s latest release was “Between Fall and Winter” from November 2018.
