3rd Generation Girl Group's Silent Disbandment Confirmed With Revelation Of Member Becoming A Hostess

A K-Pop idol has made a drastic career change.

Former NATURE member Haru recently appeared on a video where she introduced herself to the future patrons of her new work place, the Royal Club Sendai in Japan.

Rather than distancing herself from her public image in Korea, she openly said that she was a “former K-pop idol” in the video who has now become a hostess. Clips of her in fanmeetings and music shows were inserted into the video to bring this point home.

She was also seen dancing, hugging alcohol, and more. A hostess is a type of club where female staff drink with guests—mainly men—and offer their non-sexual company.

Haru belonged to n.CH Entertainment girl group NATURE. They debuted in 2018 and consisted of eight other members: Lu, Sohee, Aurora, Saebom, Chaebin, Loha, Uchae, and Sunshine.

Many fans expressed their worry for Haru upon watching the video. They noted that being a hostess requires drinking copious amounts of alcohol on the job.

Besides this, they were distraught that this news effectively confirmed NATURE’s disbandment.

They noted that it was “quite a way to learn about a disbandment” and wished that agencies did a better job on this front.

NATURE’s last comeback was on November 6, 2022 with their third mini album, NATURE World: Code W.

There were already several signs that they had already disbanded such as their now-defunct Bubble service, not mentioning NATURE in their social media accounts, and Haru returning to Japan.
