Sunye, who led the now-disbanded K-pop girl band Wonder Girls, is returning to show business.
Korean agency Polaris Entertainment said Tuesday: “Sunye and our company are positively discussing the issue of signing a contract.”
Sunye reportedly has taken part in the shooting a program and is preparing to get involved in other activities.
But some fans are not warmly welcoming her back and have criticized her for being selfish.
In 2013, the singer married Korean-Canadian missionary James Park. She went to Canada after the wedding, even though her contract with JYP Entertainment had not expired. Sunye did not officially leave Wonder Girls until 2015.
Some fans think Sunye was responsible for the downfall of Wonder Girls because the group had a long break after her marriage.
Sunye debuted in Wonder Girls in 2007 and was propelled to stardom with numerous hit tracks including “Tell Me,” “So Hot,” and “Nobody.” The group rocked Korea with its retro-fad music and choreography.
