ChoA Opens up About Leaving AOA, Refutes Marriage Rumors

Six years after leaving the K-pop girl group AOA, ChoA once again spoke about the marriage rumors that started circulating after departure. 

In the Tuesday, August 28 episode of Taek Hae Joon’s YouTube show No Back Tak Jae Hoon, the idol opened up about her former group. 

“We originally started with seven. The members left one by one, though. And I was the first one to leave,” ChoA said. “But I still root for all of them since they are my sisters.” 

 

Then, the host directly asked her if she was married. To which, ChoA vehemently denied. 

It can be recalled that when the singer left AOA in June 2017, she revealed that she was suffering from so much stress and depression during group activities. Additionally, she disclosed that she was taking medication and reduced her schedule for the previous years as a way to cope. 

However, it still didn’t help and she ultimately decided to cease all of her idol activities instead. 

 

After her departure from the group, she was embroiled in dating rumors with a game company CEO. For her part, ChoA quickly refuted the allegations. “I’m not pregnant, nor did I have an abortion or am leaving the group to get married,” she said then. 

During the Tuesday episode, the artist once again insisted that she never got married. 

 

“People were saying, ‘Why is she leaving when things are going so well?’ Then, dating rumors came up. And then it turned into ‘she got married,” she explained. 

Furthermore, she clarified that she didn’t even date the one she was being linked to. 

ChoA’s real reason of leaving AOA

This isn’t the first time that the idol opened up about why she left AOA and took a long hiatus from the entertainment industry. 

During a February 2021 episode of On and Off, she recalled her mental state when she was doing idol activities. 

“I thought I was a very positive and optimistic person, but one day it was like the fuse had blown. Then I suddenly felt tired. And I couldn’t sleep well and my exhaustion kept building up,” she said. 

Next, in a September 2021 episode of Oh Eun Young’s Golden Nugget Counseling Center, she once again talked about suffering from depression. 

“I wanted to run away because it was difficult for me to see myself,” she said about taking a hiatus. 

She added: “When a person can’t sleep well and feels depressed, they start thinking in negative ways. From a certain point, I had a really hard time watching myself on the monitor. I wanted to do a little better, but I didn’t feel as if I was. I really didn’t like that.”

ChoA after leaving AOA

ChoA made her debut in 2012 as the vocalist of the girl group AOA under FNC Entertainment. 

She withdrew from the group in 2017 but only left the agency in May 2019 following her contract expiration. In the same year, she transferred to Great M Entertainment.

Since then, ChoA has released original soundtracks. In April 2022, she released her first single since her hiatus called “Yesterday.” 

 

Additionally, she’s been uploading videos on her personal YouTube channel and appearing on several variety shows.
