Yeonwoo to Leave MLD Entertainment and Set to Join 9Ato Entertainment
Her move comes ahead of her expiring contract with her current label MLD Entertainment, which has been her agency since the start of her singing career.
To recall, Yeonwoo, whose real name is Lee Da Bin, is among the OG members of the girl group Momoland, launched in 2016.
Unfortunately, she left the group in 2019 alongside fellow member Taeha to focus on her acting career.
"While Yeonwoo has had a deep affection for her MOMOLAND activities, she has decided that continuing together with her actress activities would be too much strain for both her team and herself so to leave the team and concentrate on her career as our actress," said the management.
At the time, she was filming the sci-fi fantasy Kdrama "Alice," where she played Yoon Tae Yeon, Kim Hee Sun's younger sister.

Did Former Momoland Member Yeonwoo Date Lee Min Ho?
The South Korean beauty recently made it to the headlines after being involved with a Hallyu star.

Moreover, the report also cited that the "The Legend of the Blue Sea" and the former Momoland member have been dating for five months.
