Ahreum's Instagram posts have been gaining interest with the news of her leave, and her post from two weeks prior especially caught eyes as it read, "I really have nothing to lose anymore.. I'm not even scared of death.. #First notice", which left fans concerned previously, wondering why she would post such words and pondering about what the "#First notice" was referring to.

Ahreum's most recent post was made after the big announcement and it read, "Everyone. To all of you.. Now you're looking at a new girl who has progressed from T-ara's Ahreum? to *Lee Ah Reum*•• Starting from this moment that I upload this post, I will show you the truth, current situations and everything realistically?

Then,,,,,, Starting now•• I invite everyone to *Lee Ah Reum*'s mysterious world.. Ooh hee hee hee hee~.~@0@ *hee heet?"

As mentioned before, Core Content Media stated regarding Ahreum's leave, "T-ara which consisted of 7 members including Qri, Boram, Soyeon, Eunjung, Hyomin, Jiyeon, and Ahreum, will now become a 6-member group. Ahreum, whose musical interests normally leaned towards hip hop, expressed her wish to show a different image as a solo artist. We respect her decision so she left the group. The members of T-ara also respect her decision."

When asked to address if there were any disgruntlement between the members that might have led to Ahreum's leave, the agency stated, "It is definitely not like that. Rather than it being because of her young age, it was decided on because we wanted to respect her individual abilities."
