However, as news of internal issues and a lawsuit within BlockBerry Creative over unfair contracts with LOONA became public in November 2022, the agency made Bebez’s accounts inactive.

The only exception was a New Year’s greeting post that Joung Min was not a part of, confirming she had left the agency.
