ITZY Lia Undergoes Indefinite Hiatus Due to Health Concerns
JYP Entertainment officially announced Lia's hiatus on September 18, 2023. This was trailed by a follow-up announcement on November 17, when the agency shared that Lia would be unable to join ITZY in their future schedules due to anxiety disorder.
This hiatus led Lia to be absent in ITZY's "BORN TO BE" promotions, as well as their upcoming world tour. Regarding Lia's resumption of activities, JYP Entertainment revealed that such information will be disclosed once discussed with the idol and the members.
Lia has also addressed her situation through a handwritten letter and assured MIDZYs of her recovery. To make up for her sudden absence, Lia also posted her solo track "Blossom," which is also a B-side track on ITZY's "BORN TO BE" album.
