Thanks for making this thread

JYPE already denied Sunmi's return but I still find it weird that she went online to post that message considering she hadn't visited the fancafe since she left almost 3 years ago.

It seems some fans are still upset and saying Sunye is "selfish" because she's getting married, which I find funny because she's probably the most selfless idol I've come across. They must've forgotten when she used her own body to shield Sunmi when they were in that car accident and she came out with the most injuries because of it. You can see what kind of person she is even through little things like this.

Here's Yeeun's message to the fans in regard to that:
Spoiler:
"Some probably won′t listen no matter what I say, but what I said during the chat, that I never told you to vote for us or come to our performances instead of working or studying, wasn′t supposed to mean that I think you′re at fault and that I′m not responsible," she said.

"I meant that I can′t say things like that to you. Work and study are all important parts of life. Of course, I am very thankful toward the fans who vote for us and come to our performances. I′ve never thought lightly of them. Still, there are fans who can′t come to our performances or vote for us because they′re studying for college, for a big test or are in the army, and I believe that if they simply like our music though they can′t do all that, they′re all our fans too. Sun′s getting married doesn′t mean that she doesn′t think much of you and that she thinks lightly of Wonder Girls."

She then added, "Like work, study and Wonder Girls are all important to you, to Sun and the rest of us, Wonder Girls, our fans and our lives as individuals are all important too. It′s already been six years since [the Wonder Girls gallery] started up. It feels like it was yesterday I wrote my first post here.. I don′t believe that the things you′re saying now reflect how you truly feel. I′ve met a lot of people in person from the gallery, and I′ve thought often that they′re more pure than I thought them to be at first. I know you′re all confused, angry and hurt. I′m truly sorry.. Still, I hope you don′t misunderstand what I say. We′ve known each other for six years.. I′m sad I have to write something here for such an issue but anyway I hope you all take care of yourselves and remain happy."


There's also a longer more detailed message she posted prior to that which you can read here

I don't think anyone is completely sure what's going to happen from here on out (including them) but I don't have any reason to be anything other than optimistic. They've already endured a lot and they'll continue to do so.

While I'm extremely happy for SunYe and her marriage. I'm extremely disappointed in their American venture. They were supposed to release an album in 2010 to ride off the "nobody" wave and their Jonas brothers tour. However, SunMi left the group and then they had to start all over with Lim. Two years later, again, right before the release of their American ventures, Sun is going to get married.

There's nothing wrong with SunYe getting married, it's the fact that all these songs and all this hard work...I'm sure it's not making them happy. They gave up their popularity in Korea to make it in the US, but they still haven't. They don't even have an album.

They even debuted in Japan! And with the hiatus they will be going on, I'm sure this is a sign of the Wonder Girls most likely going away from the spotlight for a while.

As a fan ever since they started venturing into America, I had hopes that they would be extremely famous in America if they continued working hard. Very down to earth girls, very humble, and very strong. But with the news that SunYe is going to take a hiatus from the group, it's a bit disappointing...

Here's to the best! If rumors of SunMi coming back to the group stands true, I'm going to be happy about it too! Personally I thought SunMi was a good vocalist and could reach high notes with training.

I really hope them the best. I hope they still release their American album...JYP took a HIT on their JYP America in New York to debut these girls, so he invested a lot into these girls and they still don't have much to show in America... =\. Their iHeartRadio was amazing! and their Jingle Ball concerts would have been amazing had there not been conflicts with scheduling...

Blah. Rant over. Haha. Good luck to WG!

I'd say they are considering they consistently have some of the highest selling songs of the year even after going 1+ year without releases in between lol... Be My Baby is the #5 selling song in the past 3 years combined. Even 2DT which a lot of people like to pretend was a massive flop landed in the top 5 on the yearly charts that year.

interesting! I don't like the autotune much for the second verse, they don't need it. Also, Yeeun sang an impromptu of "jar of hearts" it seems. Sounds alright. She enunciates so well! =) So proud of her.

Sun will officially leave the Wonder Girls after her wedding on January 26th.

Ugh, I'm so sad. Sun has always been my favorite member...

Nothing in this article is saying that she's leaving the group?

They must have edited the article because the title has been changed to this:
Sun to halt promotions with Wonder Girls after wedding press conference

it's not surprised for me that she will eventually leave the group after the marriage, and with Sunmi together with the other girls sometimes ago, though they denied Sunmi rejoined to the group, but now i think she'll be most likely to rejoin again.

AKP mistranslating as usual, the only thing they're saying is that she's going on "hiatus" which will be similar to Sunmi's "hiatus" I imagine lol

If it were any other member of any of my other favorite groups I'd be upset at a situation like this but I can't help but be happy for her (-: I'll miss her a lot but I remember when Sunmi went back to school and Sunye said "Wonder Girls' Sunmi is important but Sunmi as a person is also important" and that's how I feel about this (-:

Thank you, Luna62 and 4minute Girl. I'm glad to hear Sun will stay with the group. I guess allkpop was just trying to start up some rumors.

According to this article (which is a translation of Sun's tweet), Sun is pregnant.

I want to say GDSKLHGAFKLGJ and freak out but I don't want this to turn out to be a hoax (like the news of her leaving the Wonder Girls was).

Me too! JYP Entertainment also confirmed that this will not affect her status as a member of the Wonder Girls.
