On April 30, 2026, ENHYPEN unveiled their new merchandise line, ENCHIN, featuring six stylized animal characters representing each member. This release, their first official plushie merchandise nearly six years after their debut under BELIFT LAB of HYBE Corporation, has provoked strong fan reactions and speculation about the group's future. With their original contracts expected to expire in 2027, discussions intensified following member Heeseung's departure on March 10, leading fans to question the stability of the remaining six members. Many believe the new merchandise indicates that the group may have renewed their contracts, as companies typically wouldn't invest in new long-term merchandise without securing the group's future. Amid these speculations, ENHYPEN is set to kick off their BLOOD SAGA world tour in Seoul from May 1 to May 3, 2026, and has also launched a video podcast titled STAN:A in partnership with Spotify. The group has received a nomination at the 2026 American Music Awards for Best Male K-Pop Artist, further solidifying their presence in the industry.
