In April, Haru appeared in a video introducing female hostesses at a Japanese hostess bar, sparking controversy.

2. Haru's Statement
On the 14th, Haru posted a handwritten letter on her SNS to address the controversy directly. She said, "My contract with n.CH Entertainment has expired, and I thought it was right to convey this news to the fans directly, so I wrote a letter."
She continued, "I also feel bad," and said, "I came to Korea alone when I was 18 without even knowing Korean and debuted as NATURE, and it was a really precious and wonderful experience. There were hard times, but every day was happy and I was able to grow myself for the past 6 years."
3. Apology to the Fans
Haru expressed her apology, saying, "I'm sorry for the worry and disappointment I caused you with my actions, but I wanted to convey my sincere feelings even though it's late." She added, "I'm not involved anymore, but I think it was disappointing to the fans. I'm really sorry."
