KG, a member of JYP Entertainment's U.S.-localized multinational girl group VCHA, has announced its withdrawal.

KG posted a lengthy statement on its account on the 8th. He "I filed a lawsuit yesterday to terminate my contract with JYP and to withdraw from VCHA. It is because he has been abused and treated unfairly by several staff members."

Then "I felt it was a bad environment for my mental health. I'm sorry to disappoint you but I don't support this environment where a member tries extreme choices and harms themselves with an eating disorder. I have already made a decision in May and am waiting for the contract to be terminated. I'm worried about the remaining members. They are friends that I really love and care about. I realized that if I stayed at JYP, I wouldn't be the artist I wanted. Extreme work and extreme restrictions on individual lives, huge debt to the company, but little was paid for it," he claimed.



And yet there were also beautiful momentsHe also expressed his admiration for JYP's head Park Jin-young, management, employees, and fans.

In this regard, JYP said "We haven't received any direct information yet, so we're checking it." Opinions have been shared through agents on the situation, but there have been aspects of disagreement. We will proceed in accordance with future procedures."



VCHA is a six-member global girl group composed of KG, Lexi, Camilla, Kendall, Savannah, and Kayleigh selected through a joint survival audition A2K between JYP and Republic Records in the United States. They made their debut in January, but are on hiatus in March when Kayleigh suspended her activities due to health problems.
