Hello, all our fans, this is Lee Sang. On January 3, 2022, my exclusive contract with Star Empire ended.

After debuting in the group IMFACT, I was happy to receive love from so many fans. I will continue to care for and cherish the name of ‘IMFACT’ in future. Through the agency Star Empire, I went through many things and was able to grow. In future, I’m going to live my own life bravely and well. I ask you to cheer not for just me but the other members as well.

Finally, thank you to CEO Shin Joo Hak and our other family at Star Empire for everything until now.
