ITZY’s Lia is making a comeback
On July 8th, JYP Entertainment announced, “Lia‘s symptoms of tension and anxiety have significantly improved through treatment and rest. After careful discussions with Lia, she has decided to return to activities starting with ITZY’s new album, which is scheduled to be released in the second half of the year.”
They added, “However, please understand that the pre-arranged schedules and shoots before the new album’s release will be conducted with the four members (Yeji, Ryujin, Chaeryeong, Yuna).”
The agency expressed gratitude, “We thank the fans for their warm encouragement and support for Lia’s recovery, and we will continue to support the artist so she can meet the fans in a healthy state.”
Previously, Lia took a break from activities in September last year due to health issues. At that time, she mentioned, “After much deliberation, I have decided to focus more on recovering my health and will not participate in the production of this album and the world tour.“
Currently, ITZY is on their second world tour “BORN TO BE”. Having recently completed their North American tour, ITZY will be performing in Taipei on July 20th, Manila on August 3rd and Hong Kong on August 10th.
