Before the first episode of Illuminate Your World has even aired, the members of Illuminate already have some drama.

YG has announced that 5 members have withdrawn from Illuminate.  However he does have plans to continue with Illuminate as an 8 member group.

“The members withdrew of their own accord and there is no bad blood between any of the members. They all left to pursue other activities.”  YG representatives said yesterday. There is no word on whether the members are staying in YG or not. Reportedly, the members who have withdrawn are Min Jo, Johnny, So Young, Kwon, and Min Young.

We hope for the best for these members.

A/N: Hello Everyone. This is jrlkjj aka Jojo. I finally get to meet everyone and it's during bad news. :( Milly and I talked for what seems like finally and finally decided to get rid of five of our members. We are sad about it but it seems like what's best for everyone. I hope you all continue to support us!! We are definitely looking into bringing these boys back. Thank You!!!

A/N: Heyy guys...bad news. I know that some people enjoyed the fact that there were 13 members. Seriously, taking them out hurt my heart. It's still really hard to deal with this. But, I was thinking of the stress level that my younger sister would have, and I felt bad. Jojo and I are definitely uber excited for this, and I know Kay is too. She just has a lot of stuff happening, like it's her Junior year in high school, she just started a new school, she has three or four other fics, etc. I don't want to nag her and be an annoying older sister. Plus, I hate to say it but these members didn't contribute as much to the group as I thought. We'll keep them for later fics though, I promise! ^^; I'm really set on this decision, as well as Jojo, and I hope you support us. I'm sorry for this, but at least we came up with the decision before the actual start of our story. (We're working on that too! :D) Please keep supporting and reading? Much love~
