Kwon Eun-bin, formerly of the group CLC, has announced her retirement and will return to a normal life after concluding her final team activities.

CLC will hold the 'CLC 11th Anniversary Concert: After All in Taipei' at Taipei Zefu New Taipei on July 19.

The seven-member girl group CLC, which debuted in 2015, disbanded in 2022 when their exclusive contract with Cube Entertainment expired, but the members plan to celebrate their 11th anniversary with a performance and share a meaningful time with fans.

The concert will feature Oh Seung-hee, Jang Seung-yeon, Jang Ye-eun, Elkie, Kwon Eun-bin, and Son Yi. Choi Yoo-jin, currently active with Kep1er, will not attend. Special attention is focused on Kwon Eun-bin's final stage after announcing her retirement.

Previously, Kwon Eun-bin's exclusive contract with Cube Entertainment was terminated last month, and her profile was deleted from portal sites and the online wiki platform Naver Wiki, sparking retirement rumors.

Subsequently, she stated via her Instagram, "During my approximately 10-year career in the entertainment industry, the excessive love and support from fans brought me happiness every moment, and I am sincerely grateful." She added, "After long deliberation, I have decided to live as a normal person."

She further explained, "Most of the time I spent was filled with emptiness and anxiety about the present and future rather than passion and love for my work. I wasted my precious time on meaningless years that were not beneficial to me at all and on human relationships that were nothing more than empty shells without any nutritional value." She concluded, "I have decided to spend my time pursuing a better and happier future."

Kwon Eun-bin said, "These days, I am spending time filled with new and happy emotions more than ever before. After concluding all CLC overseas group schedules, which were already planned in advance, I will wrap up all my entertainment industry activities." She added, "I am sincerely grateful for the support I have received and wish everyone happiness."

Meanwhile, Kwon Eun-bin first gained recognition by appearing on Mnet's 'Produce 101' in 2016. She then joined CLC and began her activities. She also appeared in dramas such as 'Bad Papa', 'Accidentally Family', 'Blue Spring from Afar', 'Dear M', and 'Check-in Hanyang', establishing herself as an actress.
