Unfortunate news coming from Team YGIG has been announced! The P-Pop girl group’s agency, SBTown, has confirmed that due to a shoulder impingement injury, member JM has made the difficult decision to depart from the group. Being a performer includes strenuous choreography, movements, and physical activity, to which her injury won’t allow her to fulfill 100%. The following statement was released by SBTown regarding the situation:

Hello, this is SBTown.

Firstly, we express our appreciation to everyone who has shown concern to our artist, YGIG JM. We see all your comments, and it has been a source of strength for her and the company.

But due to her injury called Shoulder Impingement, she is not fully able to do physical activities such as dancing, which is a big part of her as an artist and performer. With this difficult situation, YGIG JM has decided to depart from the group, as she doesn’t want to be a burden to her fellow members. The group and JM had a talk between themselves and understood her situation as well, despite their eagerness to stay together. The members hope for her to return in good condition.

We express our sincere apologies to everyone who has been worried about this matter.

We would also like to apologize for the delay of this official statement as we waited for JM’s recovery. SBTown has been prioritizing our artists’ health and opinions,hence, upon discussion with the artist, we are respecting and honoring her difficult decision. Moving forward, SBTown will give extra effort to take care of our artists.

To JM, we sincerely wish you a fast recovery. Your SBTown family will continue to support you until and after you fully recover.

To WeGo, we thank you for the continued love and support you give to the girls wherever they go. We hope that you continue to look forward to JM and YGIG’s future activities.

Rest assured that we are taking this situation with care for JM, Hazelyn, Vien, Jewel, Alexei, Maeg, and their fans. SBTown promises to still hold to our values of prioritizing our artists’ health and well-being.
