Twice‘s Mina is continuing to take a break from the girl group due to health concerns.
The 22-year-old member of the popular South Korean girl group’s agency, JYP Entertainment, released a statement regarding her condition after news broke that she was taking a hiatus for her health in July.
“We notify you with an additional update regarding Mina‘s health condition,” the agency began in a statement.
“After receiving several examinations from medical experts, we have confirmed that Mina‘s current health condition can be identified as anxiety disorder. The biggest symptom to note regarding this illness is that the individual can suffer severe periods of anxiety without warning, whether it be continuously or sporadically; furthermore, the severity of these anxiety spells can also fluctuate suddenly and spontaneously.”
“Due to such unpredictable symptoms, we are currently discussing the possibility of Mina‘s participation in schedules with the individual as well as with the TWICE members in order to reach a decision. In addition, we notify that Mina‘s participation in promotional schedules will be determined objectively on the grounds that Mina feels capable in her health condition, and so please understand that her participation will be limited and selective. We will continue to do our best to ensure Mina recovers her health. We ask for fans’ abundant support and encouragements.”
We are wishing the best for Mina in her recovery.
