On May 9 KST, Jellyfish Entertainment made the following announcement on VERIVERY's official platform. 

"Hello, this is Jellyfish Entertainment.

Due to unreleased personal schedules, members Dongheon, Gyehyeon, and Kangmin will temporarily halt participation in VERIVERY activities starting May 11.

We apologize for any concerns that we may have caused VERRER with the sudden news, and ask for your understanding on the matter.

We ask for your continued love and support for VERIVERY."

Sources project that Dongheon, Gyehyeon, and Kangmin have recently confirmed their appearance on the upcoming Mnet boy group audition program, 'Boys II Planet'. If true, this will mark VERIVERY's second survival show appearance after 'Road To Kingdom' in 2020. 

Meanwhile, VERIVERY's leader Dongheon most recently completed his mandatory military service duties 2 months ago, after enlisting as an active duty soldier in August of 2023. The rest of the members have carried out various group and individual activities.

A follow-up season to the 2023 boy group audition 'Boys Planet', Mnet's 'Boys II Planet' will premiere some time in the second half of 2025.
