Ki Bum, through his own personal Twitter left a message regarding his decision of leaving the group: "[...] To start with the point, I've come to an agreement with my company to end my contract since February 2011. They wanted a change of members and I agreed to it. Since that day I was not part of U-KISS any longer. [...] I neither quit because of my company nor because I lost interest in U-KISS. [...] But I'm lacking in many points and I respect my former company's decision to switch members."
