There was also a Japanese member in the New Jeans debut group...

As summer approaches, New Jeans never comes back~~ ㅠ,,ㅠ

For me, the summer idol is definitely New Jeans~~

While reading the article, I found out that Harin, a Japanese model and actress, was originally a member of the New Jeans debut group.

I saw an article saying that he was the only one who received the notice of resignation...

Seriously... I don't know why, but I can only imagine how upset he must have been when he was eliminated alone after struggling together...

Even when New Jeans was doing well, you must have always felt empty, but I think you must have had a lot of thoughts looking at it these days when things are tough.

[SBS Entertainment News | Reporter Kang Kyung-yoon] Japanese model and actress Harin (real name Harada Rin), who confessed to being eliminated from the group New Jeans ahead of their debut, has personally stated her position regarding the recent interest surrounding her.

Harin posted a lengthy message on her YouTube community on the 14th. She began, "I'm grateful for the sudden attention, but at the same time, I'm a little worried these days."

He continued, "What I talked about in the interview was simply a very personal feeling of frustration and disappointment from my past, and I did not intend to criticize or expose any specific company or individual." He also expressed his warm feelings, saying, "It was definitely a difficult time for me, but it was a grateful opportunity and time that made me stronger, and I still support the members who laughed and cried with me back then."

Previously, on July 12, Harin appeared on a YouTube channel run by Japanese actor Hiromitsu Takeda and mentioned her days as an idol trainee.

In the video, Harin revealed, "I had to give up my dream of becoming an idol due to a sudden decision by my company right before my debut. One day, I was suddenly notified that my contract was being terminated, and I was told to leave alone." She recalled that this forced her to return to Japan immediately.

Born in 2003, Harin is a former member of the Japanese idol group "Shibu3 Project." She passed the audition for Source Music, a subsidiary of HYBE, in 2020 and joined the company. She later transferred to Adore and was a member of the debut group of New Jeans, but suffered the pain of being eliminated just before her debut.

After the video was released, Harin's YouTube and SNS were flooded with supportive comments as well as some malicious comments, and it appears that Harin has stepped forward to personally explain herself.

Finally, he concluded his letter calmly by saying, "Just as the autumn breeze blows even in the hot summer, I will remain 'Harin' without change. I ask for your continued support."

Meanwhile, Harin is currently continuing her activities as a model and actress.
