Eunji of the group VIVIZ opened up about her period of inactivity.

On the 19th, Eunji posted a handwritten letter via her Instagram story.

In the letter, she said, "I didn't expect the gap to be this long at all. I thought we'd just recharge for a bit and meet again soon, but it seems I've kept you waiting longer than expected, so I feel very sorry."

She added, "To briefly share how I'm doing, I've been spending this unusually long period of leisure quite dynamically—sometimes feeling happy, sometimes struggling, making resolutions, getting tired, and pushing through. I thought my days would become calm like gentle waves once my body could rest comfortably, but that hasn't been the case. In fact, it seems my mind and thoughts have become busier in inverse proportion. To steer these thoughts in a positive direction, I've often taken trips far away from time to time."

Eunji also stated, "I hope that this current hunger—not only for me but also for the members—doesn't drain our remaining strength or lead to burnout, but instead fuels us with a desire for even more wonderful and stylish moments. So I dare to say that when we finally restart, I expect to show you something new, slightly different from before."

She concluded, "It may take some time, but there are days ahead when we'll be overwhelmed by content so intense it will make this current silence seem pale. Let's just hold on a little longer."

Meanwhile, VIVIZ is a group formed in 2021 after the disbandment of Girl's Day, with members Euna Kim, SinB, and Eunji re-debuting. In February 2022, they signed an exclusive contract with Big Planet Made Entertainment and have been active since then.

Big Planet Made is a label under One Hundred Label, a talent agency operated by Cha Ga-won, chairman of the PIAK Group, who was arrested on suspicion of fraud involving hundreds of billions of won. VIVIZ notified their agency of contract termination on March 4 citing breach of trust due to violations such as failure to pay settlement funds and failure to fulfill management support obligations. Since then, both parties have engaged in legal battles over the validity of the exclusive contract.

In June, the court fully granted VIVIZ's three members' application for a provisional injunction to suspend the effectiveness of their exclusive contract with Big Planet Made Entertainment.
