Park Ji Yoon opens up about her personal struggles with former agencies



Veteran singer Park Ji Yoon has revealed that she felt betrayed and abandoned by her former agencies.

On February 7th, Park Ji Yoon guested on cable channel Story On's talk show, 'Lee Mi Sook's Bad Scene', where she opened up about her past struggles.

The singer began by explaining why she left her former agency, JYP Entertainment"The period after my promotions for my 6th album, 'I Know How', was around the time when my contract with the agency was supposed to end. I worked hard over the years, but I wasn't thought of as family, and was left alone. It saddened me," she said.

Since Park Ji Yoon withdrew from the music scene for a long while, MC Lee Mi Sook commented, "If you had remained at JYP, you might not have had to go through such hard times for the past six years."

Park Ji Yoon replied, "It seemed like they didn't really want me. Although talks of re-signing went back and forth, in the end, the deal fell apart."

This wasn't the end of her troubles. She continued, "I went into a new agency, and although I'm a person who was pretty well-known to the public, the CEO of the agency tried to persuade me to get plastic surgery... When I reflected upon the situation later on, I realized that they were trying to tell me that I should leave on my own. I was hurt."

Park Ji Yoon will be participating in tvN's 'Opera Star Season 2', in addition to releasing her new album in mid-February.
