CiON is a Japanese girl group that currently consists of five idol-musicians: Shion (vocals), Kinui Aika (vocals), Ishihara Kako (alto saxophone), Seina (euphonium/bass trumpet), and Ami (piano). Although the group has existed in various forms since 2016, it rebranded as CiON on October 1 after receiving feedback that the previous group name, C;ON, was difficult to search for on X. The current lineup was set to release their debut single, “Shimasho,” as CiON on Christmas Day.

Now, CiON has announced that they will be suspending activities. This includes canceling planned events and releases. The group’s members have been charged–along with their agency’s president and four other people–with holding a street performance at a plaza in Tokyo without the necessary permits, violating Japan’s Road Traffic Act.
