 How come this kind of things happens nowadays, recently KARA, now UKISS????

Awwww iam gonna miss kibum and xander if they leave ukiss TT. Well i am not a big fan of ukiss but i like them. You ask me WHY? Well they are ubiquitous right? That's why i like them.(Simple answer) I like to 'talk' with them on twitter actually.  They are fun because they will 'talk' to KissMes especially on twitter^^) Sometimes i tweeted to them, they will response generally but i feel like they are replying me,though i know this is only coincidence XD. But this kind of reply makes me happy all the way. I do hope that Kibum and Xander will not leave Ukiss, but KiBum already signed the agreement with NH media to terminate his contract. What we can do now is only wishing him all the best with his Piro Piro business, BUT KIBUM!!!!! Please do comeback Ukiss if you miss them, i am sure they will be happy that you can return. For Xander, KissMes do hope that you will continue to be part of Ukiss, SO please STAY as long as you can!!!!

안녕하세요 유키스 기범
아니 정확히는 유키스로 활동했던 김기범입니다

두달을 미루어오다 드디어 용기내어 글을 써내려 가볼까 합니다
우선 결론부터 말씀드리자면 2011년 2월부로 저는 소속사와
전속계약을 합의해지 하였습니다

멤버교체를 원한 소속사와 해지요구에 따라 동의서를
작성하였으며, 그 날 이후로 유키스가 아니게 되었습니다
많은 분들이 생각하신 것처럼 피로피로 캐릭터 사업에 몰두하기 위해서...또는 유키스에 흥미가 떨어져서 라는것과는 전혀 다르다고 생각합니다

유키스를 누구보다 소중하게 생각했으며 피로피로 캐릭터 사업으로 인해 유키스 스케줄에 지장을 준 적 또한 단 한차례도 없다고 자부합니다..
가족같이 아니 그 이상으로 멤버들을 생각해왔습니다 이렇게 헤어지게 된것이 정말 섭섭한 마음이지만 제가 모자란 부분이 많아 유키스에 교체가 필요할 것이라는 전 소속사의 의견또한 존중하는 바입니다.

비록 이렇게 어찌보면 일방적으로 헤어지게 되었지만 너무나 많은것을 배울수 있었고 많은 사람들 그리고 유키스 멤버들을 만날 수 있었기에 감사했습니다

이 몇줄의 글이 그간 저를 사랑해주셨던 분들에게 큰 상처가 될 수도 있다는것에 기분이 착잡합니다.
한 동안은 개인적으로 방송활동을 이어갈 예정입니다
제가 어디에 있어도 무엇을 해도 응원해주시는 모든 분들께 감사드리며 방송인이자 사업가인 김기범으로 찾아뵙겠습니다

감사합니다.

Hello it's U-Kiss' Kibum
No, to be accurate, it's Kim Kibum who was once active as U-Kiss.

After two months of rumours, I have gathered the courage to write this.
Firstly, in summary, starting from February 2011, I have come to an agreement with the company on the termination of my contract.

I had requested to leave the company who wanted a change in members, followed by signing an agreement. After that day, I was no longer part of U-Kiss. Many people say that it is because I am too absorbed in the Piro-Piro business... Or that I have lost interest in U-Kiss but that is definitely not the case.

Nobody is more precious to me than U-Kiss and I can confidently say that I have never once given up on a U-Kiss schedule because of Piro-Piro. I wrote this with my U-Kiss members in mind, who are like family, no, are more than family to me. Although I feel very sorry to leave like that, I will respect my previous company if they choose to add new members to replace me.

Although it looks like I left unwillingly, I am very thankful to have met many people who taught me a lot, as well as my U-Kiss members.

The above is written for the people who love me and I'm deeply sorry if it causes you any hurt.
For now, I have plans to continue my broadcasting activities.
While thanking everyone who will support me wherever I am and whatever I do, I will see you again in broadcasts or as an entrepreneur. 

Thankyou.

Extracted from Allkpop: 

“With Kim Kibum’s case, we made a mutual agreement to terminate his exclusive contract recently. With Alexander’s case, he may be leaving U-KISS, but after a very long discussion, we decided that he will be remaining with the agency to fulfill his personal, overseas activities.”

“We think very importantly of the time we spent together with the two members, and we’re thankful for the time we sweated together. Even though we have ended his exclusive contract, we hope that we can maintain a good relationship with Kibum, who is still a family member in our hearts. Also, as his former agency, we hope to help him in a variety of ways in the future.”

“Through these happenings, U-KISS will reborn as a more mature and developed team. There will be two new members of U-KISS who will reinforce the group’s comeback next month, and they are currently working hard with the other members. We will be revealing the new members to the fans soon.”

NH Media concluded, “We thank you again for showing interest in U-KISS, and we apologize for causing concerns.”
