Moving on from the bullying controversy, ex-April’s Kim Chaewon is officially going solo.
General Entertainment released an official statement on August 29th, saying, “For the fans who have waited for Kim Chaewon for a long time and given your great love and support, at 12 PM today, through various music sites, all songs and music videos of Kim Chaewon’s first solo digital single album ‘TOMORROW’ will be released and she will begin her solo promotions.”
Kim Chaewon’s first digital single title, “TOMORROW”, which she participated in composing and writing the lyrics herself, contains the message of forgetting the tiring past and present while living for a hopeful future. In addition, it is an album filled with Kim Chaewon’s colors. The charm of her vocals are expected to be showcased to the fullest.
Kim Chaewon said through her agency, “I plan to show a new side of myself not only as a singer but also as an actress in various entertainment broadcasting activities, so please look forward to it and show your support.
Earlier, in February of last year, suspicions were raised that April members including Kim Chaewon were bullying former member Lee Hyunjoo, sparking a serious controversy. Lee Hyunjoo claimed that during her active period as a member of April, she even attempted suicide due to the bullying by the rest of the group. As the controversy grew bigger, April officially disbanded in January of this year.
After that, Kim Chaewon has continued her legal battle over the bullying controversy. Through her YouTube channel on July 7th, she revealed the final result of the bullying controversy has been decided to be remitted. She said, “I will stop here with the legal actions.” She firmly denied the bullying allegations by saying, “My position regarding my rumors is not a lie and I can say that without shame. I will greet you with various activities and good music in the future.”
