CL announced on November 8, 2019 that she left her agency YG Entertainment and ended her contract with them. In an Instagram post, she opened up about her decision, saying:
"I started running even before I learned to walk, so without knowing how to walk or how to rest, I achieved a lot of things, realized a lot of things, and learned a lot of things in the past 13 years. I was happy to be able to live as CL, who could share myself with all of you, and I was also able to heal myself with the love that you all gave me."
CL is the leader of the iconic K-pop girl group 2ne1, comprised of other members Park Sandara, Gong Minzy, and Park Bom. The South Korean girl group announced their disbandment in 2016 after their huge international success.
