2NE1's Park Bom to Retire from Active Duties Owing to Health Issues
2NE1's Park Bom Takes a Break from Group Activities for Health
Park Bom, a member of the popular K-pop girl group 2NE1, has stepped away from the group's activities to focus on her health, as confirmed by her agency D-Nation Entertainment on August 6, 2025.
Recent developments, including her cancellation of a solo performance at the WATERBOMB Busan festival on July 26, have led to this more extended break. While the precise nature of her condition remains private, her absence reflects a careful consideration of her health needs.
Earlier in 2025, Park Bom had already taken a hiatus to prioritize her mental health before rejoining group activities. However, her recent actions have raised concerns about her health, leading to this decision to focus on her well-being.
During a friendly football match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United FC at Seoul World Cup Stadium, Park Bom performed with her 2NE1 members during the halftime show. But her health issues have since become more apparent, leading to her cancellation of various appearances.
In the meantime, the other 2NE1 members—CL, Sandara Park, and Minzy—will continue group promotions and scheduled appearances, such as upcoming performances at WATERBOMB Bali and WATERBOMB Singapore 2025. They will support Park Bom during her recovery.
The agency and fans have expressed strong support and understanding, emphasizing that Bom’s health is the priority and updates will be provided through official channels as her situation develops.
The decision was made after receiving medical advice recommending rest and stability for Park Bom. The company asked for warm support for Park Bom's recovery, and fans have responded positively, wishing Bom a speedy and full recovery.
