OTO's Hope (Hope Jane Roberts) will be leaving the group after two years of being a member.
On December 2, Bighit Music confirmed this news and Hope also wrote a handwritten letter to fans which she posted on the group's Weverse.
Hope wrote, "I made this decision after contemplating and thinking for a very long time, but it still doesn't feel real. I still feel like I will laugh and chat loudly with members, receive love from you all, and be happy like I always have."
She continued, "There were times when we fought but Bighit was always warm and has family-like atmosphere so I'm a bit afraid about leaving. One of the main reasons I'm leaving is to help my mother back at home in Oklahoma. However, as the one of the youngest members of OTO, I won't lose my passion and will work hard to show you the color of Hope Jane Roberts more comfortably."
Hope also thanks Bighit, JYP and the agency's employees and staff members. Finally, she concludes her letter thanking fans for their love.
OTO will continue with eight members (BoA, Yumena, Yutsuko, Hei, Lee, Woong, Sanghee and Micha).
We wish the best of luck for Hope.
