"These OH MY GIRL albums were removed on August 1 without prior notice. They are back now, but under a new distributor. I'll get back to that later. For Apple Music fans, most of these albums are only available outside of the US for now.

Miscellaneous WM Entertainment releases that have also returned today:

As for an explanation for its removal. It hasn't immediately caught my attention at first, but the reason is likely related to the merging of Sony America's music recording and publishing divisions:

Sony Music Entertainment and Sony/ATV Publishing as Sony Music Group to be consistent with how Universal & Warner Music Groups operate.

The merger occurred on August 1, the same day as the removal of these albums from international streaming (outside of Korea and Japan). If this is truly the reason for the removal, I have no idea how these few specific K-Pop albums from a small agency that appears to have are the ones that got caught up in the reorganization. However as a result, these previously Kakao M releases are now suddenly distributed by Sony Music Entertainment. (Melon)

As far as I'm aware though, B1A4 & OH MY GIRL (not ONF) are still partners with Kakao M for future releases. This distribution change has more major effects as well. As these recordings are now owned(?) or at least enforced by an American music company, their Content ID policies are a lot more strict. This has unfortunately led to a large number of fancams featuring songs in these albums to become flagged and are now unwatchable worldwide."
