APRIL’s Naeun On Break Due To Stress Caused By False Accusations Of Bullying

She will still be participating in the comeback.

APRIL‘s Naeun was previously accused by a netizen that claimed that she was bullied by the star back in elementary school. Although the rumors have been refuted by DSP Media, Naeun’s company, who claimed that the story was entirely untrue, it seems that the psychological stress on the star caused her to require some rest.

In a report made to OSEN, the company further stated that they had reached out, not only to Naeun herself for clarifications, but made a thorough investigation. The company contacted other classmates from her school days, who all stepped up to defend the singer. According to her classmates, Naeun was a bright and friendly girl, who got along well with all her peers. She was also close to the teachers, proving her good conduct and sociability.
