After three years, Yedang Entertainment has delivered the unfortunate news that C-CLOWN has officially disbanded.

On October 5th, Yedang Entertainment posted the following announcement on the group’s fancafe and Facebook account:

“Hello. This is Yedang Entertainment.

On July 19, 2012, the group ‘C-CLOWN’ made a brilliant debut with <SOLO>. After three years has passed, they have officially disbanded on October 5, 2015.

Yedang Entertainment and these six people (Rome, Siwoo, Ray, Kang Jun, T.K, Maru) have been together for the past three years, we bow our heads in gratitude to all the ‘CROWNs’ (fandom) who have been with us and have given love to C-CLOWN’s music.

Unfortunately, C-CLOWN’s activities have come to an end.

We ask that you continue supporting and encourage the members as they prepare to face new challenges.

As we continue, Yedang Entertainment will not forget the fans encouragements, we will continue doing our best so that we may demonstrate a better look.

The ‘C-CLOWN’ fancafe as well as the official SNS pages and YouTube channel will be closed following the grace period of one month starting today (October 5th). To fans, thank you for your understanding.

Thank you.”

안녕하세요. 예당 엔터테인먼트입니다. 2012년 7월 19일 <SOLO>로 화려하게 데뷔했던 ‘씨클라운’이 3년이 지난 지금, 2015년 10월 05일 공식적인 해체를 하게 되었습니다. 예당 엔터테인먼트는… Posted by 씨클라운 C-Clown on Sunday, October 4, 2015

Following the announcement, member Rome confirmed the group’s disbandment, writing, “By now, you have probably all heard the news. It’s been the best three years. I’ll never forget it. I’ll miss being with my members and seeing my CROWNs. Thank you CROWNs who stuck by us no matter what! It saddens me more knowing we can’t make those dreams for C-CLOWN happen no more! We thank you. And we promise! That someday and somehow, it may not be all of us, but we will come back to you guys! CROWNs 4 lyfe! Thank you for the memories.”

Rome had garnered attention in April 2015 after wiping out his Instagram account and changing his Twitter handle to his birth name Christian Yu thus feeding the rumors that he would leave C-CLOWN. Additionally, he had written, “They turned me into something that I am not. Never forget what I did for you.”
