While the group was doing well Son Naeun, one of the Apink members also was looking to expand her solo career as an actress.

Ahead of their latest comeback with ‘Horn’, it was revealed that Naeun would not be participating in the promotions of the album as it clashed with her solo schedule.

Naeun’s absence from Apink promotions linked to Chorong’s scandal

YouTuber Lee Jinho, who runs an exposé on the lives of many Korean celebrities from his YouTube channel has taken it upon himself to defend the honor of Apink’s Naeun after she was witch-hunted for leaving Apink out for the benefit of her solo career. Naeun, who was being brutally terrorized by anti-fans of Apink as she decided to skip promotions for the group's latest comeback, ‘Horn’, the album that dropped on February 14. Back in January of 2022, it was announced that due to a lot of clashes between her upcoming acting schedules, Naeun would have to miss the promotions of Apink’s 10th Anniversary Special album.

Now according to Lee Jinho’s investigation, it is being reported that Chorong’s scandal is to be blamed for Naeun’s absence. The report suggests that Naeun had received a lot of big-scale acting gigs back in April of 2021. Around the same time, Apink was gearing up for a new comeback schedule and Naeun who was dedicated to Apink dropped all the projects only to support Apink’s comeback at the time.

Around the same time, Apink’s former member Chorong was accused of school bullying among other claims causing a great controversy for the group which led to a cancellation of their comeback. Due to this, Naeun reportedly signed up for multiple acting projects but since it was very recently announced that IST Entertainment prepared a new comeback for Apink, it was impossible for Naeun to reschedule her acting projects thus leading the singer to skip promotions.



 

Did YG Entertainment ask Son Naeun to leave Apink?

Other than linking her absence from ‘Horn’ promotions to Chorong’s scandal, Lee Jinho also reported that an insider revealed that Naeun was asked to leave Apink as she proceeded to join YG Entertainment which would be her new acting label. It is alleged that Naeun declined the offer and proved her loyalty to Apink as she said, “How can I abandon the group that made me who I am today?”

It is also being revealed that despite having multiple schedules, Naeun tried her best to be a part of Apink’s activities in the past year and is not being given enough credit for her loyalty and sacrifices for the group.
