Ji-min uploaded the video in which she can be seen walking on the street wearing a hat and a padded jacket. Ji-min’s bright hand waving and playful movement are also captured. Judging by the location tag, the video appears to have been taken in London, England. However, it is not confirmed when the footage was taken. In particular, a sound source was also released, which is presumed to be Ji-min’s voice.

It was the first time in two years that Ji-min disclosed such an update. Ji-min withdrew from her group in July 2020 due to the so-called “AOA incident” caused by the revelation of former AOA member Kwon Min-ah and had stopped working in the entertainment industry.
