DJ Soda has left Korea due to the damage from a bleaching incident. She declared a break to soothe her troubled mind from social anxiety and depression.

On the 29th, DJ Soda posted a lengthy message on her social media to give an update on her situation. She opened with, "I wanted to rest for a while due to the depression I have been feeling, so I am currently in Germany."

DJ Soda continued, "As a woman, my self-esteem has dropped a lot and I have developed social anxiety, but thanks to many people who worry about me like it’s their job and offer their support from all over the world, I am trying to gather strength."

DJ Soda added, "I am really grateful to receive various sponsorship offers for unexpected hair products, care, wigs, and hair extensions. When I return to Korea, I will definitely reply to each of them, so you don’t have to worry too much."

While doing so, DJ Soda expressed her gratitude, saying, "I couldn't greet each of you directly, but I sincerely thank you all. I will also work harder to become someone who can share back the support and warm hearts I received. Once again, I sincerely thank you."

Previously, on the 18th, DJ Soda revealed via social media that her hair had been falling out and breaking due to the stylist's negligence during a bleaching session. She stated, "Because I have a profession that requires me to be in front of the public, I am trying every possible method, but my hair is still falling out, and it has been broken to about 3mm, making even hair extensions difficult. I heard that it will take over two years to grow out the broken hair, so I am barely hiding the ugly portions with the remaining hair."

After DJ Soda publicly called out the incident on social media, the salon owner allegedly contacted her manager and transferred responsibility to the victim in a threatening manner. DJ Soda claimed, "It’s a fact that the designer had not contacted me for over three weeks with any apology, so why are they getting angry as if it's a deliberate issue when they haven't contacted me?" She asserted that they pressured her for a settlement of 5 million won.

DJ Soda, who had been expressing her pain after the bleaching incident, also appeared in a YouTube content released on the 26th, expressing her feelings once again. While talking to Giwoo, she mentioned the bleaching incident, saying, "I never dreamed such a thing would happen in my life. Suddenly, I cried. It was sad every time I touched it. I thought I had gotten used to it, but suddenly I choked up when speaking," showing her tears. It seemed that DJ Soda was enduring significant emotional pain due to the bleaching incident.
