2. Lexie Sends Farewell Message

Shortly after the announcement, Lexie shared a personal message through Instagram Stories. She expressed her gratitude for the opportunity given by HYBE x Geffen during her time in the SAINT SATINE project.

"HYBE x Geffen will always hold a special place in my heart. I am very thankful for the opportunities and lessons I have received. However, we have now made a mutual decision that this is the right time to pursue our own paths," said Lexie.

The Swedish singer also assured that her career journey is not over yet. She hinted that her future debut may come in a form different from what fans expect.

"My debut and future may be different from what you imagine, but stay tuned! I am not done yet," she concluded.

3. SAINT SATINE Prepared as a New Global Girl Group

SAINT SATINE was first introduced on May 12 as the latest global girl group project by HYBE x Geffen following the success of KATSEYE. The group carries a concept that combines HYBE's typical idol training system with an approach to Western pop music.

The initial lineup of SAINT SATINE consists of Emily, Lexie, Samara, and Sakura. Three of them previously participated in the survival program The Debut: Dream Academy, while Sakura was selected through the World Scout: The Final Piece event, resulting in a formation with an international background.

4. Lexie Known as a Songwriter and Producer

Before deciding to leave, Lexie was one of the most attention-grabbing members due to her abilities not only as a performer but also as a songwriter and producer.

The artist, born in Stockholm, Sweden, on August 28, 2004, has been known to fans since her appearance in Dream Academy. That experience has given her a global fanbase that is now looking forward to her next steps after parting ways with HYBE x Geffen.
