Following her affair scandal with actor Lee Dong Wook in 2019, Chaelin deactived her instagram multiple times and kept out of the public eye on numerous occasions. She even took a break due to anxiety and struggling with body dsymorphia.

I'd recommend reading "Chaelin's 2019" before this again, as a lot of things are referenced.

→ 21st February: MOTS: 7 is released. Chaelin's solo song "Celebrity" appears on the album, telling the story of how she feels being a celebrity and in the public eye. The song, though overall upbeat, has mostly dark undertones. It becomes the favourite solo on the album.
Chaelin attends the Live Interview at the Plaza, although she once again doesn't speak much. Fans notice how she sits the furthest away from Namjoon.
