JYP Entertainment informed fans a few hours ago that ITZY's Lia will be taking a break due to health reasons. In a personal letter to her fans, Lia expressed her gratitude for their support and expressed her wish to return to the stage soon.

On July 31, girl group ITZY released their seventh mini album "Kill My Doubt" , including the title track "Cake". Lia, along with the other members of ITZY, has been performing in music shows until two weeks ago and once again wowed fans with her charm and smile!

The announcement came as a surprise to many fans. JYP explained in a statement that Lia was suffering from extreme tension and anxiety and was advised by doctors to rest and receive treatment. JYP stressed that the health of their artists is a priority, so Lia will be taking a break from all scheduled activities for the time being to focus on her treatment. It is still unclear when she will return. However, the label plans to contact fans as soon as there is news.

In a personal letter, Lia thanked her fans for their continuous love over the past few years and promised to return in good health.

Fans support Lia's decision because even though they will miss the singer, her well-being is of course the most important thing. In the highly competitive K-pop industry, mental problems have not always been taken seriously, so fans are happy that Lia is getting the rest she needs. On Twitter, they have been spreading the hashtag #GetWellSoonLia since the news broke to express their support and concern.

Lia's temporary break is a reminder that despite their popularity and flawless image, K-pop stars are also people who need breaks and time to recover. We all wish Lia a speedy recovery and hope to see her shining on stage again soon!
