Former F.ABLE Member Jaehyun Passes Away After Battling Leukemia
Jaehyun showcased remarkable talent and passion throughout his short-lived career. Beyond his musical abilities, the young star was known for his warm personality and genuine connection with those around him, making his legacy even more meaningful.
Jaehyun was the youngest member and main vocalist of the K-pop group F.ABLE. Known for his gentle personality and soothing vocals, the singer personally resonated with a lot of their Fairies (F.ABLE Fans). He debuted with the group back in 2020, and they produced six songs before their hiatus in 2023. According to their agency, Haeirum Entertainment, the group went on hiatus to allow their members to rest.
Later that year, three members from F.ABLE started a new project called ENPHAZE (엔페이즈), which Jaehyun didn't participate in. The group then silently disbanded. There was barely any news on Jaehyun's physical state, which was why his passing was such a surprise to many. However, he had reportedly been fighting his illness for some time before his death.
The news of Jaehyun's passing was shared by his former groupmate, Hojun (호준), through an Instagram story. He expressed deep regret over their lost contact following the group's disbandment and thanked Jaehyun for the cherished memories they created together. 'JaeHyun, I heard the news too late… I hope you can shake off all your worries and live comfortably there. Thank you for the past five years. I hope you're eating lots of delicious food and doing well there. Come visit me in my dreams,' he writes.
Since the announcement, fans, fellow artists, and the broader community have expressed their condolences on social media. Many mourn the loss of a young talent with so much potential ahead. As we remember Jaehyun, we extend our deepest sympathies to his family and friends. His legacy will endure through the music he created and the lives he touched.
