The girls stated that they are not stepping back from their US activities and turning to Asia after stating they'll debut in Japan this July. When asked about their increased activities in Asia, the girls replied, “Because we had to learn English in the States, the amount of time we spent there grew longer and longer, which meant we didn’t have a lot of time to see our Asian fans. In an effort to show and share more of us, we mutually agreed to increase our activities. We rushed the release of our new song for our first Korean concert in four years on July 7th. Following that will be our Japanese promotions, the JYP Nation concert in August, our tour concert, and finally a new American album.”
