CL Opens Up About Leaving YG: "I'm Excited For The 1st Time In A Long While"

Following her recent departure from YG Entertainment, CL has shared a heartfelt message about starting the second chapter of her career.

On December 2, the singer took to Instagram to open up about making a fresh start after leaving her longtime agency.

CL’s full post is as follows:

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.

Like the 13-year-old Chaelin [CL’s given name], just like my grandmother always told me, bravely and confidently.

Without waiting for someone else to choose me, I will return to being CL and move forward on my own, one step at a time.

At the thought of being able to share my experiences, memories, and feelings together [with you], my heart is excited and aflutter for the first time in a long while.

For all the CLs of this world.

In the name of love,
CL
