On August 14, Cube Entertainment released an official statement announcing Soojin's departure from the girl group. The label stated, "As of today, it's been decided Soojin will withdraw from the team," adding that (G)I-DLE will continue as a 5-member group.

Cube continued, "In the future, (G)I-DLE will continue their activities in a 5-member system, and we'll continue to support and do our best to help (G)I-DLE show more mature music and performances."
