Chaeyoung Becomes The Second TWICE Member To Leave JYP Entertainment

Chaeyoung has become the second TWICE member to leave JYP Entertainment, but will continue activities with TWICE.

Chaeyoung shared on her personal Instagram in both Korean and English about how she will be leaving JYP Entertainment after 14 years with the company.

Hello, this is Chaeyoung. I wanted to share this with ONCE first my family, who has always been by my side. I’m so excited to step into a new chapter and bring my new LIL FANTASY, a world where I can explore and build my music. I want to deeply thank everyone at JYP and Team TWICE for believing in and supporting me over the past 14 years.

And to my TWICE members, who are always my strength and biggest supporters thank you, and I love you beyond words. Most of all, please know that nothing changes with TWICE. Everything I’ve received is thanks to my time as TWICE, which will always be my roots. I hope both Chaeyoung of TWICE and Chaeyoung in LIL FANTASY can continue to create music that brings meaning to you as well.

This is a new challenge for me, and I promise to keep growing into an even better person and artist. Thank you for always believing in me. I love you!

Chaeyoung is going to pursue her solo activities through her LIL FANTASY project, but will remain with TWICE and continue promotions with the group. She is the second member to leave, following Jeongyeon’s departure to VARO Entertainment to promote as an actress.
