To everyone, from Tsurubo Shion

Hello JAM, it's been a while. This is Tsurubo Shion.

About five months have passed since I took a hiatus.

I had the time to think things over during this period, and I have decided to not renew my contract and end my activities with JO1.

I know very well that this will cause sadness for the JAM who were waiting for my return.

However, after looking inward, questioning myself, and organizing my thoughts, I decided to conclude my activities at the end of my contract.

I still love the members, and I love all of JAM as well. I could never thank you enough.

I will continue to support the members in their future activities. We may no longer be working together, but our hearts will remain connected.

JAM, thank you for supporting me throughout these six and a half years, from the audition and as a member of JO1.

I love you all.
