Blockberry Creative refused to reveal evidence concerning the rumors of power abuse to the public,[37] facing criticism and skepticism from fans, with some industry professionals who had previously worked with Chuu questioning the allegations made against her.[38] On December 5, Chuu released "Dear My Winter" with South Korean R&B singer George as part of Lotte Shopping's "Songs for You" series.[39]
