Even after ending her contract, AOA member- Seo Youkyung has not abandoned her South Korean band fully. The idol, who started her career with FNC Entertainment in 2012, has kept forth her desire to continue as the honorary member of the group.

In her long good bye note on the band's fan cafe, group's drummer made a promise to be back as AOA Black's percussionist every time the sub-unit comes back with the latest tracks: "If AOA Black comes back with a new song, I'll unchangingly be their drummer! I'll work hard to come back as fast as I can, with the best image. Please continue to support AOA, FNC, and me! Thank you," she said.

Giving out further details of her contract, and the reason to bid adieu, the singer relayed: "I'm sure there are some who have already heard, but after a lot of conversation and considerations, I have decided to end my contract with FNC, who I've been with for the past 5 years."

She continued: " I haven't really had many promotions with them, and this post is not a final goodbye, but I do feel sad about the AOA members, who I've been together with since my late teens to now, when I'm 24, and also thinking about greeting and cheering the people who have always helped us. But I also feel grateful."

Youkyung, who will be focusing on her individual career now onwards, promised to be back with a new and better image: " It was a precious time that I was able to meet great people, and also fans who have always shown love. From now on, as I always have, I'll be preparing to appear out of nowhere with a bette rimage, hehe, "she said.
