Tetris Kelly:
Lia of ITZY got emotional rejoining the group ahead of their next comeback. Fans were treated to a surprise when Lia made an appearance with a new ‘do during their fift- anniversary livestream, and JYP Entertainment released a statement on the group’s official app sync. “After careful discussion with Lia, we decided to return to activities, starting with ITZY’s new album, which is scheduled to be released in the second half of the year, but the crew will complete any planned events with the current four members until their new album.”

Lia’s been on a hiatus from the group since September, missing their latest mini album, Born to Be, and their world tour. JYP said she was prioritizing her mental health, and now Lia’s symptoms of tension and anxiety have improved a lot through treatment and rest.

So congrats, Lia. We’re looking forward to your comeback.
