UNIS Ends Group Activities After Two and a Half Years: Final Single “Milky Way”
K-pop girl group UNIS has concluded its official activities as a full group, marking the end of its two-and-a-half-year journey since debut.
F&F Entertainment confirmed that UNIS’s exclusive management contract ended on September 26, 2026, following discussions between the agency and the members about their contract period and future activities.
The eight-member group was formed through SBS’s survival program Universe Ticket and officially debuted in March 2024. Before their group activities concluded, UNIS released the digital single “Milky Way” as a final song for their fandom, EverAfter.
Why Did UNIS End Its Group Activities?
UNIS’s official activities as a full group ended following the scheduled expiration of the members’ exclusive management contracts with F&F Entertainment.
The agency announced on September 22 that the contract would end on September 26, 2026. F&F Entertainment explained that the company and the members had held discussions about the contract period and the group’s future direction before deciding to conclude UNIS’s official full-group activities according to the originally scheduled contract term.
The agency also said it would continue supporting the members as they pursue new opportunities and grow in their respective fields.
When Did UNIS Debut?
UNIS debuted on March 27, 2024, with their first mini album WE UNIS.
The group was created through SBS’s audition program Universe Ticket, which concluded in January 2024. The final lineup consisted of eight members:
- Hyeonju
- Nana
- Gehlee
- Kotoko
- Yunha
- Elisia
- Yoona
- Seowon
UNIS then continued group activities with releases including CURIOUS, SWICY, and other singles and promotional projects during their contract period.
UNIS Releases Final Single “Milky Way”
Before the contract officially ended, UNIS released “Milky Way” on September 23, 2026 at 6 PM KST.
The digital single was presented as a special song for EverAfter, the group’s official fandom.
“Milky Way” uses the image of stars spread across a wide distance but connected through the same galaxy. Its message focuses on continuing forward rather than treating the end of group activities as a final goodbye.
