"We bring bad news for the upcoming group SUPERSTAR who are getting much love already. Leader Mia has decided to drop out of the group due to health reasons. At first Mia was going to just promote the debut stage and take a rest afterwards to recover but after discussing it with her and the other members of SUPERSTAR it'll be best for her to depart the group so her health doesn't get worst. But please don't worry as Mia has passed on the leader position to the new member who SUPERSTAR trusts as much as Mia. This will not delay SUPERSTAR's debut, as they will still debut on October 31st at 'Music Bank'. New member and leader Saengmin has started the process of learning the moves for 'Happiness' and it is going well as the new main dancer. Please still anticipate SUPERSTAR's debut stage on October 31st."
