• BBGIRLS on Yujeong's Departure: "We're Not Surprised"

    Girl group BBGIRLS mentioned their former member Yujeong's departure.

    BBGIRLS (Minyoung, Eunji, Yuna) recently held a roundtable interview at a café in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam, Seoul, to commemorate the release of their second single LOVE 2.

    Last April, BBGIRLS parted ways with Warner Music Korea and established a new agency, BBGIRLS Company, before reorganizing into a three-member group.

    This was when Yujeong announced her departure. Although the exact reasons for her departure were not disclosed, BBGIRLS' side expressed, "We decided to respect Yujeong's decision. We sincerely thank Yujeong for her dedicated efforts as a BBGIRLS member for a long time, and we will continue to support her without change."

    Regarding this, Minyoung shared, "I wondered, 'Can I speak honestly, just as it is?' We were careful about how to communicate because we no longer have the previous member. We debuted late and started our activities, and being in our 30s, we also had many thoughts about life, especially after 'Rollin'. Ultimately, the opinion of the former member was the most important, so we decided to respect that after many discussions, which led to the final three of us remaining. Not everything goes the way we want. I’m sure the other members and that friend also feel the same. Of course, it’s disappointing, but we chose to respect her decision and finish things on a positive note, supporting her, and prepared for this album."

    Minyoung also recalled the moment Yujeong expressed her intention to leave. "I wasn’t surprised," Minyoung said. "We had shared many things before, so we kind of felt it coming. As a leader, I was most upset because I wished she would’ve stayed with us a bit longer. It wasn’t so much a surprise as it was upsetting. I had the most conversations with the former member, and while it was regretful as a team, as a person, I had no choice but to understand. But I did express my disappointment and hurt feelings."

    BBGIRLS' second single LOVE 2 will be released on the afternoon of the 15th through various online music platforms.
