It is now confirmed that Jeon Chae-yeon and Som-yi will not participate in their group's upcoming album, "Flower 4 Seasons."
According to Star News on Thursday, Jung Chae-yeon and Somyi did not participate in DIA's sixth mini-album "Flower 4 Seasons." In response, only five members will complete the line: Eunice, Ki Hee-hyun, Ye Bin, Eun Chae and Joo Eun have participated of the saidalbum, and their comeback.

DIA will release its sixth mini-album "Flower 4 Seasons" on June 10. It will be their first comeback in about a year since their "NEWTRO" album released last year. Thus, such news caught the attention of the netizens as to why the two are not included on the said music project and will certainly affect the gatherings of many K-pop fans.
With this, fans are totally disappointed for such unexpected news. Some are even saying it is totally unfair among fans that they are not given a direct reason for the kpop idols' absence.
"I'm so disappointed that they didn't tell us directly. They could've announced that they weren't participating and the causes of it but they chose to leave us in the dark, truly one of the worst companies in kpop," tweets one fan.
"This is MBK's way of saying they left. Tired of this really. Chaeyeon in basically the pillar of the group, she's the most popular one BY FAR, because she was in ioi before. I just hope their future shines bright as them," said one netizen.
While some have foreseen such event would happen as it was reported that Chayeon is facing dispute with MBK and Som-yi is battling with psychological issues. One fan also stated, "I'm honestly not surprised. A have a hunch Chaeyeon is probably in a legal battle with MbK to terminate her contract. As for Somyi, we know she's going through a mental battle rn. MbK and TS entertainment just has no rewarding qualities at all."
Meanwhile, Jung Chae-yeon made her debut in the K-pop scene in 2015 as a member of girl group DIA in 2015.After temporarily leaving the team with Ki Hee-hyun in 2016, he appeared on Mnet's "Produce 101" and was among the final 11 members and served as a girl group IOI After the IOI contract expired, he returned to DIA and has been active.
