On March 3, 2026, 2NE1 member Park Bom posted a now-deleted handwritten letter on Instagram, alleging that bandmate Sandara Park framed her as a drug addict to cover up her own drug issues from 2010. The post revisited Bom's past controversy involving Adderall medication for ADD treatment and named several former YG Entertainment figures. Representatives attributed the statement to Bom's unstable health condition amid her ongoing hiatus.
