El Capitxn has addressed Heeseung's departure from Enhypen after receiving messages from the group's fans.
On Instagram, the South Korean singer and producer who now works at Big Hit Music wrote an angry message for Engenes, telling them to "stop sending me stories about Lee Heeseung, you f-king bastards."
"F--k, it's okay for the kid to do what he did. If you guys are true fans, embrace him first rather than throwing stones. Why do you keep blaming me, you stupid bastards?" he said, according to a translation by Soompi.
The caption has since been edited and now reads: "Now get off and play Twitter."
El Capitxn is known to be friends with Heeseung.
HYBE sublabel Belift Lab on Tuesday announced that Heeseung is leaving Enhypen, as "it became clear that Heeseung has his own distinct musical vision and we have decided to respect it."
Heeseung will remain under Belift Lab in his pursuit of a solo career, while Enhypen will continue as a six-member group.
Fans have since been calling for Heeseung's return to Enhypen.
The group's remaining members, Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki, released a statement saying they "respect and support Heeseung hyung's choice and the new beginning that we've shared all this time."
“The time we've spent together up until now is precious beyond words. That's why we respect and support Heeseung hyung's choice and the new beginning that we've shared all this time,” they said.
Some of Enhypen's hits include "Bite Me," "No Doubt," "Drunk-Dazed," and "XO (Only If You Say Yes)."
