TRI.BE decide to resume their comeback promotions for 'Diamond' as planned, the last album produced by Shinsadong Tiger before his death

AKP STAFF

Girl group TRI.BE, produced by Shinsadong Tiger, has decided to resume all comeback activities for their 4th single album 'Diamond' as planned. 

 

On February 23, TRI.BE's label TR Entertainment released an update regarding the girl group's promotion plans. The announcement came soon after a music program appearance and a fan sign event were postponed on the same day in light of the sudden passing of Shinsadong Tiger.

In the update, TR Entertainment explained,


"It is with heavy hearts that we deliver extremely sad news. Producer Shinsadong Tiger (Lee Ho Yang) passed away suddenly on February 23, 2024.
We earnestly request that any speculations and conjectures regarding this sudden news be refrained out of respect for the grieving family.
The wake will be held at St. Mary's Hospital in Seoul, and the funeral proceedings and burial will be held quietly and privately, with only family members, relatives, and colleagues present according to the wishes of the family.
The members of TRI.BE, who have worked hard since their debut with the affection and support of Shinsadong Tiger behind them, are also deeply shocked and saddened.
However, as the new album was one that Shinsadong Tiger and the members of TRI.BE prepared together for the last time before his death, it has been decided that TRI.BE will continue their comeback promotions for 'Diamond' as planned in the hopes of carrying out the producer's final wishes. 
Cherishing the affection and support that Shinsadong Tiger has shown them from debut until now, TRI.BE will do their best for the remainder of their promotions so that the producer's last album can shine brightly.
The label also promises to help the members of TRI.BE find comfort while they continue their broadcast activities. 
Finally, we ask for your prayers for the deceased. Once again, we express deep sorrow as we wish the deceased a restful final journey."

On February 23 KST, Shinsadong Tiger was found deceased in his studio

I hope this is a decision Tri.be themselves were part of. But I'm glad to hear this because the song is doing quite well and delaying promotions could have hurt the overall success of the comeback, which would have been a shame for everyone involved.
