CORTIS’s Keonho To Limit Performances During Upcoming Tour After Hand Injuries + Shares Message To Fans

CORTIS’s Keonho has suffered injuries to both of his hands.

On July 15, BIGHIT MUSIC announced that Keonho will perform without choreography during CORTIS’s upcoming “PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN” tour and other scheduled activities after a fall left him with fractures around both little fingers. For the time being, he will also wear casts and braces to protect the injured areas and avoid placing unnecessary strain on them.

The agency released the following statement:

Hello.
This is BIGHIT MUSIC.

We would like to inform you of adjustments to CORTIS member KEONHO’s participation in the tour and other scheduled activities due to his health condition.

KEONHO recently suffered a fall and visited the hospital after landing awkwardly on both hands. Following a thorough examination, he was diagnosed with fractures around both little fingers. He promptly received the necessary treatment and is currently recovering steadily. However, medical professionals have advised that, to protect the injured areas and support a full recovery, he will need to wear casts and braces for the time being and minimize excessive movement of both arms.

Although KEONHO is eager to participate in the scheduled tour and other activities, we will prioritize the medical team’s advice and KEONHO’s recovery, managing his future schedule with flexibility.

Accordingly, during the “2026 CORTIS TOUR IN INCHEON” concerts on July 18 and 19, KEONHO will perform without choreography in order to minimize arm movement. In addition, his participation in upcoming festivals and other scheduled engagements will continue to be reviewed in close consultation with medical professionals, and the format of his participation may be adjusted to avoid placing undue strain on his injuries. We ask for your kind understanding.

We will continue to do our utmost to support KEONHO’s treatment and recovery so that he can return to fans in good health as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Following the announcement, Keonho also shared a message with fans through Weverse:

Hello, COERs. This is Keonho. I recently suffered injuries to both of my hands. I’m sure many of you were surprised to hear this, and I’m sorry for making you worry. I’ll be responsible and diligent in my treatment so that I can return as soon as possible in good health. Since our upcoming ‘PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN’ tour is CORTIS’s first-ever tour, I really wanted to show you all five of us together, and I truly wanted to take part in it. Although I won’t be able to perform the choreography alongside the other members, I’ll do everything I can within my limits to put on a great performance with them. Thank you so much to all the COERs who always support me no matter what. I’ll work hard on my recovery and do my best to get better as quickly as possible, so I hope you won’t worry too much. I’ll do my best so that you can enjoy our Incheon concert and all of our future performances together with us. Thank you for reading.

Winwin Leaves NCT And SM + Shares Heartfelt Letter To Fans

Winwin is officially parting ways with SM Entertainment.

On July 8, SM Entertainment announced that Winwin’s exclusive contract with the agency has come to an end. As a result, he will also conclude his activities as a member of NCT.

The agency shared the following statement:

Hello, this is SM Entertainment.

We would like to sincerely thank all NCT fans for your continued love and unwavering support.

Following careful discussions with Winwin, we have mutually agreed to conclude his exclusive contract, effective July 9. Accordingly, Winwin will conclude all activities as a member of NCT.

We are deeply grateful to Winwin, who has been with SM Entertainment for more than 10 years since his trainee days. We sincerely thank him for the time we have shared together and wholeheartedly support him as he embarks on a new journey.

Thank you.

Following the announcement, Winwin shared a heartfelt letter via his personal Instagram. His letter read:

Hello, this is Winwin.

From 2016 to 2026—10 years have passed by so fast. Looking back on the past decade, I wanted to write this letter from the bottom of my heart.

From starting out as a trainee to debuting as a member of NCT 127 and later WayV, I’m simply filled with gratitude for all the people I’ve met and the precious connections I’ve made over the past 10 years.

Sometimes I look through old photos from years ago, and every single picture brings back countless memories and the stories behind them. There were certainly times when I was exhausted and days when I faced setbacks and hardships. But even more than that, what remains in my heart are the many moments filled with happiness, joy, and unforgettable emotions.

Even though time has passed, those small but precious memories have always been my greatest source of strength. They gave meaning to every step I took and ultimately became the driving force that made me who I am today.

When I was still young and inexperienced, SM gave me the opportunity to debut as a member. They also gave me the chance to stand on stages around the world and meet all of you. From the very first moment I stepped on stage as an SM artist until now, I know I wouldn’t be the person I am today without those experiences. And I never would have had the chance to meet the countless people who recognized me, supported me, and loved me.

These past 10 years will remain one of the most precious chapters of my life for years to come.

Lastly, I’d like to sincerely thank Czennie, WayZenNi, and every fan who has been by my side throughout this journey. I hope the past decade will remain a warm, beautiful, and unforgettable memory for all of you as well.

Moving forward, I’ll never forget the dream I had when I first started. I’ll continue to do my very best with the same unwavering heart and keep growing into a better version of myself.

To everyone reading this letter, I wish you peace, happiness, and good fortune. I sincerely hope all of your dreams come true.

Thank you.

Winwin debuted as a member of NCT 127 in 2016 before joining WayV in 2019. In 2021, he established his own studio in China and has since focused primarily on his individual activities there, including starring in dramas and appearing on variety shows.

We wish Winwin all the best in his future endeavors!

TREASURE’s Junkyu To Temporarily Halt Activities Due To Health + Shares Heartfelt Letter To Fans

TREASURE’s Junkyu will be temporarily halting his activities to focus on his health.

On June 29, YG Entertainment announced that Junkyu will be taking a temporary break after experiencing health issues.

The agency explained that although TREASURE recently wrapped up promotions for their latest mini album “NEW WAV,” Junkyu had continued participating in activities despite feeling unwell. After discussions with Junkyu himself, it was decided that he would suspend his activities for the time being to prioritize rest and recovery.

As a result, Junkyu will be unable to participate in TREASURE’s upcoming schedules, including the upcoming P/V shoot for the B-side track “DANGER.”

Read YG Entertainment’s full statement below:

Hello, this is YG ENTERTAINMENT.

We would like to inform you that TREASURE member KIM JUNKYU will be taking a temporary break for the time being.

TREASURE completed their official broadcast promotions for their mini album last week.

Despite experiencing poor health, JUNKYU has continued to do his best for the team’s activities. However, based on the artist’s own opinion and the judgment of those around him that he requires focused stability and rest for the time being, it has been decided that he will temporarily halt his activities and take a period of rest.

Accordingly, JUNKYU will be unable to participate in TREASURE’s upcoming activities for the time being, and he will also be unable to take part in the P/V shoot for the B-side track “DANGER,” which is scheduled to take place soon. We kindly ask for fans’ generous understanding.

The members and the company will support and encourage JUNKYU with one heart so that he may recover through sufficient rest and stability and return in good health as soon as possible.

We ask for fans’ warm support and encouragement.

Thank you.

Following the announcement, Junkyu took to Weverse to personally reassure fans with a heartfelt handwritten letter.

His full letter is as follows:

Hello, TREASURE MAKER! This is Junkyu.

I spent a long time thinking about how to begin this letter, but I decided to write this in the hope that my sincere feelings will reach you.

It’s already been six years since I debuted with TREASURE in 2020 and began this journey alongside TREASURE MAKER.
Over the years, I’ve received so much love from all of you, and every moment has felt like a miracle. I’ve truly been happy.

However, as I kept running forward and giving everything I had, I think there came a point where I gradually stopped noticing the signals my mind and body were sending me.
Because I always wanted to show you the best, most professional side of myself, I kept trying to act as though I was okay. But I eventually realized that it was time for me to stop for a while and take care of myself.

After having many discussions with the company, I decided to temporarily suspend my activities and take some time to rest.

I’m terribly sorry for worrying TREASURE MAKER, who has always been my greatest source of strength, by sharing this sudden news.

However, I believe this pause is something I need in order to come back as a healthier and stronger version of myself. I’ll take this time to rest well, organize my thoughts, and return as my true self.

Thank you always, and I love you, TREASURE MAKER.

Wishing Junkyu a good rest and a full recovery!
