In September 2023, JYP Entertainment announced that Lia would be taking a break from her activities to address health concerns.

The company revealed that she was experiencing tension and anxiety during her busy schedule and, after consulting with a specialist, she was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder.

Lia, along with the other ITZY members and the company, decided it was best for her to focus on treatment. Consequently, she missed the promotions of ITZY’s new album and the group’s world tour that’s been on going since January.
