For a while now, fans have noticed the absence of RaNia‘s Joy. With many inquiring about her missing presence, the group’s agency has decided to formally speak up about the issue.

Having beat out 3,000 others in Thailand to become a member of RaNia, Joy debuted with the group last year in April. However, starting around November of last year with the group’s promotions for “Pop Pop Pop”, she has been missing in action. Her name is also missing from the group’s member list on portal sites.

RaNia’s agency revealed, “Due to the major flood that occurred at the time in Thailand, Joy’s family has experienced much suffering with their house submerging and some of the family members getting injured. Joy is currently with her family in Thailand and will not be able to participate in the upcoming promotion.” Thus, the new album, which is reported to have already been completed, was recorded without Joy.

However, fans should not fear for the agency has clarified that Joy’s withdraw from the group is not an official one. “She has revealed her intentions of participating in the overseas promotions that she is able to attend… After the flood recovery and her family once again finds peace and safety, we will be discussing her return to the team,” the agency commented.

Praying for her and her family and everyone else still looking for safety in the flood's aftermath.

If she truly wants to remain a RaNia member then I am SOOOO EXCITED but there's been so much mystery around all this...hmmm.

Yeah something like that was said a long time ago, I wish her and everyone else being affected remains safe :S People should just leave her alone since her being in RaNia isn't the most important thing.

isn't he someone under darkchild though? this is all weird considering some producer from him has expressed a desire to produce for them.

i'm pretty sure in his twitter bio he said he was under darkchild. i feel like they pimped out joy for tracks (since they are working on the new album), but then again i haven't followed joy since that solo fan meet she was going to have/had so idk... something isn't sitting right with me though.

She gave me the feeling that she was very unhappy with the k-idol industry. Her family problems may have pushed her over the edge, but somehow I feel she wanted to leave anyway.
I wish she could find an agency in Thailand instead.

Not that it's a valid source,but Wikipedia is listing her as a past member.

I think something's up with management though. It's possible Jooyi's actually having an ongoing dispute with them that's why she's sent home while they sort matters out apart from the floods in Thailand.

Anytime a member takes a really long hiatus from promotions like Amber or that girl from Chocolat, it means something srs bsns is going on between that member and the management.

They did originally say she had family issues though, because that was what I remembered they said when she originally started missing promotions. But ppl assumed this would have resolved much faster than it hasn't, so their not changing the story seems suspicious now, I guess?

Although the translation isn't the best, her tweets don't really contradict this.
