Momoland appears to have disbanded as all six of the remaining members opted to not renew their contracts with MLD Entertainment.
MLD Entertainment released a statement confirming the news.
Hello, this is MLD Entertainment.
First of all, we sincerely thank the fans who cherish and support MOMOLAND.
After a lengthy discussion with MOMOLAND (Hyebin, Jane, Nayun, JooE, Ahin, and Nancy), we respected each other’s opinions and agreed to terminate the exclusive contract upon expiration of the contract period.
We express our deep gratitude to MOMOLAND who has been with us for a long time, and we will sincerely wish the best for the members’ future endeavors.
We would like to ask fans to show unchanging love and support to the six members who are about to start anew.
Thank you.
Momoland debuted in 2016 through the reality series Finding Momoland. When they debuted, Momoland was a seven-member group consisting of Hyebin, Yeonwoo, Jane, Nayun, JooE, Ahin, and Nancy. Daisy and Taeha joined the group in 2017, making Momoland nine members. In 2019, Taeha and Yeonwoo departed the group and the agency with Daisy following in 2020 (in 2022, Daisy claimed she was “fired” from the group).
Daisy’s departure included a legal battle for unpaid wages as well as claims that Finding Momoland was rigged. Daisy ultimately won her lawsuit against the company.
Momoland had a lot of potential but lacked clear direction thanks to MLD Entertainment not knowing what to do with them. In 2018 and 2019, Momoland had two of K-Pop’s biggest songs with “Bboom Bboom” and “Baam,” but after that, album sales and music releases declined. Momoland’s last EP was Starry Night in June 2020, and their last single album was Ready or Not in November 2020. In 2022, the group released “Yummy Yummy Love” with Natti Natasha, but it was an English single.
It is not clear if Momoland will resign as a group with another agency or if they will go their separate ways and focus on their individual activities. In the meantime, Momoland is considered disbanded. Good luck to the members on their futures!
