An SM Entertainment representative has revealed, “Sunny is leaving KBS 2TV’s ‘Invincible Youth 2′.”
Sunny already filmed her final episode last month, which will air on July 7th, ending Sunny’s eight months on “Invincible Youth 2”.
Sunny’s representative explained, “Originally Sunny was also in season one, so because of that, even before season two started, discussion with the production crew was already made for her to leave naturally when the program became stable.” The representative added that with “new MC Lee Youngja entering the show and the reorganization, it seemed like the right time to take the opportunity and leave the show now.” Furthermore, the representative stated about Sunny’s future schedules, “For the time being, it is planned she will only do Girls’ Generation activities. No individual schedule has been decided yet.”
The PD for “Invincible Youth 2” said about Sunny leaving, “Because of Sunny’s musical or her Japan activites and her individual schedule, it was a situation where she was very tired and would arrive like this.” He added, “For her other schedules, she is leaving ‘Invincible Youth 2’.” He also said, “Hyoyeon will still be staying. There will be no new different members coming in. It will stick with G5, and Lee Youngja will be coming in as an MC.”
For Sunny’s final episode, even though there wasn’t any special event, the members who knew it was her last broadcast cried along with Sunny. Since October 2009, Sunny has received love by showing a down to earth and firm image in her first broadcast of “Invincible Youth” season one, as well as into season two.

That just goes to show how much Sunny has given to the show, to the fans, to the world of variety shows and even to idols themselves: just be yourself! Kind of sad they only used her for the show to get the attention they wanted and then she can leave but at the same time I’m happy she can finally get a little more rest. I’m also really happy Hyoyeon will be staying because lately her popularoty is just going crazy and I don’t want it to end just yet lol
I love you Sunny Bunny, hope you get alot of rest and I hope to see you soon in another show whether it’s a year from now or more, I’ll be waiting cuz you’re effing jjang in variety shows =D
NOOOO!!! don’t leave iy2 sunny :-(
why she’s leave IY2? i’m so sad :'(
Why sunkyu always leave after 30’s episode…?
I feel sad that Sunny is leaving IY2, at first she left IY and i felt sad, but when she came back in IY2 i felt happy again, now hearing that she will leave i’m sad but i understand why she is going to be leaving, but i am also happy as Hyoyeon will be staying.
I’m kinda sad hearing all these because I love Sunny being in Invincible Youth 2 as much as I loved Hyoyeon but I care of her so I think it’s for her best. But seriously IY2 shouldn’t change all the time members because I’m still mad at them that they let go of Amber and Woori – they were just precious. I hope the rest of them will stay as long as they can.
So it means, they use Sunny so that the program became stable..,, they should have not include her if they just gonna use her..//
I understand why SM decided that. Sunny’s schedule is jam-pack. She might get sick if she will always work. Even though it is sad to see her leave, people really should start thinking more about her health as of now.
I’m glad at the same time that Hyo is not leaving IY2. She’s just too adorable! And of course, SM already thought that they should focus more on Hyo when it comes to GG’s variety shows. :)
WHY SM WHY T___T..
damn it why must this happen
i cried when i saw the ending, huhuhu.
invincible fighting! sunny fighting!
rest weeell unnie.
I really hope Hyo will stay! *hopeful*
It was sad seeing Sunny leave IY, but it’s really sad seeing her leave IY2.
Seeing everything that has happened during those 8 months of filming, it’s hard to see her leave for a second time.
