Project girl group I.O.I finally bid their farewell after their last stage performance on Sunday. Following the disbandment, fans of the 11-member band are curious about future of their idols.

An Allkpop report stated the I.O.I members will take different paths after their journey as a girl group. Some of them will continue their singing careers, while others will try something out of their comfort zone.

Reports claimed trainees Choi Yoo Jung, Kim Do Yeon, Lim Na Young, Pinky and Kim Chung Ha are gearing up for their respective debuts, while Jeon So Mi has been caught up with her modeling career aside from making an appearance on "Unnies' Slam Dunk."

On the other hand, Yoo Jung has been confirmed as a regular cast of "Golden Tambourine," as Kim So Hye will try her luck in acting. Other I.O.I members are reportedly rejoining their groups Cosmic Girls, DIA and Gugudan.

I.O.I fans expressed their sadness on the disbandment of the girl group after eight months. Some of them are even hopeful the 11-member band will have a reunion in the future.

According to Soompi, the girl group formed by CJ E&M took to their official Instagram account to say their final goodbyes to the supporters. "Till now, this has been I.O.I. YES, I LOVE IT! Thank you," the band wrote, alongside a group photo.

Further reports stated the girl group went out for a dinner after their final show on Jan. 22. The I.O.I members were reportedly joined by their families, Mnet staff members and employees of their label celebrate the band's success.

The members reportedly enjoyed their final moments together; however, the I.O.I girls failed to hold back their tears after the dinner celebration. "This is our last day together, and we couldn't even watch a movie together because we're all busy," a member said while crying.
