Aside from thanking the soloist and her fans, known as BYULHARANG, in the post, MNH Entertainment also confirmed that Bare&Rare, Pt. 2, the follow-up to CHUNG HA's 2022 album Bare&Rare, Pt. 1, will no longer be released by it. 

"Furthermore, we ask for the fans' generous understanding in regards to the fact that Bare&Rare, Pt. 2 will not be released under our agency due to internal circumstances," the agency wrote.

Since participating in the South Korean reality survival show Produce 101 as a representative of MNH Entertainment back in 2016, CHUNG HA has gone on to become a part of the girl group I.O.I and enjoy a successful solo career following its disbandment. To date, she has launched two studio albums — Querencia and Bare&Rare, Pt. 1, and gained attention for tracks such as 'Gotta Go', 'Roller Coaster', 'Bicycle', and 'Dream of You'.

Just last December, she was one of the performers on the lineup for 88rising's Head In The Clouds Jakarta.
