Is VCHA Disbanding? Fans React To JYP Deleting Group’s Socials & Name From Website

It’s been nearly two years since the debut of JYP Entertainment’s global girl group VCHA (비춰). They quickly captured attention both in Korea and internationally with a diverse lineup and a fresh concept and the group seemed poised for long-term success. However, controversy and internal issues began to surface shortly after their debut. These problems led to some of the excitement surrounding their rise diminishing.

In 2024, two members left the group, and since then, VLIGHTS (VCHA fans) have remained on edge, hoping for stability and clarity. However, time went on, and concern only grew. Many fans started wondering what the future holds for a group that once represented a bold new direction in K-pop.

Since former member Keira Grace Madder—also known as KG (케이지)—filed a lawsuit against JYP USA last year, VCHA has been associated with serious allegations. These include child abuse and exploitation, as some members were under the legal age when they joined. According to court documents, JYP Entertainment allegedly pushed the girls beyond their physical and mental limits, leading to some members to engage in self-harm.

While KG’s case is still ongoing, fans’ concern has grown due to the group’s prolonged silence. Shockingly, on the 5th August (Tuesday), all of VCHA’s official social media accounts were suddenly deleted. To make matters worse, JYP Entertainment removed the group from their official artist roster. This move sparked widespread alarm throughout the fandom.

While many feared it was the end for the remaining four members of the group, the girls later launched solo social media accounts. Shortly after, they shared a single image hinting at a rebrand, a fresh start meant to move beyond the controversy but still under the same company. For some fans, it was a sign of resilience and hope, a chance for the members to reclaim their identities and continue their careers despite the challenges they’ve faced.

However, not everyone was ready to celebrate. Many pointed out that, despite the rebrand, JYP Entertainment has yet to publicly acknowledge or take responsibility for the controversy. To some VLIGHTS, the move feels less like a fresh start and more like a quiet attempt to move on without accountability. While the rebrand may offer a fresh start, only time will tell whether this fresh start can bring genuine healing or simply mask unresolved wounds.
