Beloved 4th Gen Group’s Disbandment All But Confirmed With Recent Activity
Numerous signs can indicate the end of a group’s time together. While the cleanest way is to announce a hiatus or disbandment, some groups have a slower process that can include changes in activity levels or news involving their company.
Earlier this year, fans of the girl group TRI.BE were surprised to hear that the company the group were under was reportedly bankrupt. This sparked concerns over their potential disbandment.

On May 2, it was revealed that the group’s Bubble fan chatting platform would close on May 30.

The group’s closing of their Bubble means there is one less way for the group to communicate directly with fans. Usually, Bubble closing signals a change in a group’s company or potentially an ending.
Member Hyunbin shared a message on Bubble shortly after, thanking fans for their support and asking them to attend an upcoming event as a final “goodbye.”

Y/N Thank you so much for spending almost 4 years sharing fun stories with me and listening to me!!
It felt both long and short, but during that time, you gave me so many kind words and so much support. Thanks to you, I was able to get through tough times on my own, and I realized how many beautiful words there are in this world!!
I can’t say exactly when, but please believe that I’ll definitely come back soon — in a way that fans want to see me again!!!
Thank you for creating a scene in the movie-like journey of my life called TRI.BE and I’ll never forget the TRI.BE we made together. Thank you so much! I loved you so much, and I really loved and cherished you. I’ll miss you so much. And I’m really sorry. I’m sorry for hurting True’s hearts…ㅠㅠ Let’s meet again someday .
Also, I really want to say a final goodbye at the birthday café event, even if it’s outside of everything else…! Please, as many fans as possible, come so we can see each other in person and say goodbye..
— Hyunbin
With these notices, fans have expressed sadness over the potential ending of TRI.BE.
