On October 23, JYP Entertainment made the following announcement via NiziU's official website:

"We have some important news regarding NiziU member Miihi. 

After Miihi continued experiencing deteriorating health conditions, she consulted a medical expert and was advised to take time off to rest and recuperate; as a result, we have decided to put Miihi's health first and allow her to focus on recovery. We ask for fans' understanding.

Miihi's condition is gradually improving with regular treatment. We would appreciate your cheers and encouragements toward Miihi, so that she can return to greet fans with a bright smile as soon as possible. We will notify you again when Miihi's condition improves enough for her to resume promotions."

I actually knew it was gonna happens ... She lost weight so fast for such a young age .I hope she understand that she doesn't need to lose weight to be "pretty" ,she was already perfect .

Sing , dance, enjoy yourself and do what you love , don't let the hurtful words drag you down.

Get better soon !

Honestly I was surprised this didn't happen sooner. She was worryingly thin in the last few videos they released and personally I don't think it's really acceptable to allow her to present herself in the condition she is in on the sort of platform she has. It is dangerous for young girls to see, especially in Japan where they have quite extreme ideas of what constitutes an ideal body as it is (have you seen some of their weight loss ads?) I really hope she is able to get the help she needs. It must be very difficult for her being so young and being shoved into the spotlight in an industry as gruelling as this.
