SEOUL, July 15 (Yonhap) -- Former members of the project girl group IZ*ONE each returned to their management agencies last April after finishing all official team schedules. Now, one by one, these members have started their individual activities.

Former leader and lead vocal Kwon Eun Bi is joining 'UNIVERSE', a K-pop fandom platform managed by NCSOFT.

According to NCSOFT and its subsidiary company's announcement on the 15th, Kwon Eun Bi's UNIVERSE 'Planet' will be opened on the 19th. Through this platform, exclusive contents will be disclosed and the artist will communicate with her fans via private messages and so on.

Lee Chae Yeon, the main dancer, has signaled the start of her activities by recently announcing that she would be participating in 'STREET WOMAN FIGHTER', a women dance crew survival program planned to be broadcasted by Mnet from August 24th.

In this program, 8 dance crew teams will compete through dance battles. Lee Chae Yeon is participating by the name of a crew 'WANT' along with star choreographers including famous dancers such as Hojin Choi.

On June, the main vocal, Jo Yu Ri, started her schedules with singing 'Story of Us', OST(Oringial Sound Track) of a JTBC drama 'Monthly Magazine Home'.

Choi Ye Na actively took part in various variety shows such as 'Idol Dictation Contest', TVING's original variety program and last month she appeared in MBC's Mystery Music Show 'King of Mask Singer'.

IZ*ONE was a girl group of 12 members formed through an Mnet audition program 'Produce 48' in 2018. After 2 years and a half of immense popularity in Korea and Japan, the group disbanded this April.

Some possibilities for reunion had been suggested. However at the start of this year, CJ Entertainment announced that though there had been conversations with the members' agencies for various potentials, agreement for the reunion was unsuccessful.
