The K-pop star penned a lengthy post on her personal Instagram account, along with a photo of her looking up at the sky while standing on a green field.
Ara explained why she hasn’t been lately active in her career, given her health condition. “[I’m writing this post] because it seems like many people think I really died or something. From a long time ago, I was often tired, and there were many times when my health and physical condition were really bad.
While happening to undergo an examination, I found out that it was cancer,” read the English translation of her post. The former girl group member underscored that she is now recovering from the surgery after struggling a lot while many people didn’t know what she was going through. “I received the diagnosis that I needed surgery, so I underwent surgery to remove the malignant tumor and also took medication, and I am now resting.
(Right now, I’m getting much better),” she said. “Although there were people who knew, there were also many people who couldn’t get in touch with me and felt hurt, so I struggled a lot with heartache on my own,” added the Korean artist.
