Jang Gyuri regarding her departure from fromis_9
Jang Gyuri shares that acting was always her dream, and she thought being in the group was a nuisance to the team. She says, “I thought I had grown up with the members and achieved a lot while being a part of fromis_9. Now I thought it would be nice to watch the members go ahead as I take a step behind. I believed in the members and decided to leave the group.”
She also further said, “At the beginning of the filming of ‘Cheer Up,’ I did team activities and acting at the same time. I couldn’t concentrate physically or mentally, and I felt that I was still lacking in doing both. Especially physically, it was really hard. I practised dancing for the Cheer Up squad together, as well as the group’s choreography but I couldn't memorise any of it. I thought it was too much to do at the same time, and I feel sorry for the members because I felt like I harmed them.”
Jang Gyuri who cried at the fromis_9 fan meeting in April said, “I had a conversation with the company to some extent. The fans worry about me when I cry, so I don’t cry in front of them, but I couldn't hold back my tears that day. I thought it would be my last appearance as fromis_9’s Jang Gyuri and hence I was moved by seeing the fans. I wondered if they would be hurt because of me, and if they would still like and support me even if I made the decision of leaving the group, it was a mixed feeling.”
The actress continued, "There are still many things I want to explore as an actress, and I'll work hard to become a great actress so that I can confidently claim I'm actress Jang Gyuri." In July 2022, Jang Gyuri made the decision to leave the group so she could focus on her acting career.
