SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan are going to be taking a short lived hiatus after receiving ankle surgery thanks to an injury.
Pledis Entertainment made the announcement on July 21, sharing the unfortunate news with Carats.
Hello, this is often Pledis Entertainment.
We would wish to share news about Seungkwan’s injury.
Seungkwan recently suffered an ankle injury while practicing choreography, and immediately was taken to the hospital for treatment and an examination. He was diagnosed with a ruptured ligament in his left ankle, and received surgery last Saturday after the doctor advised he would require surgery.
Seungkwan is functioning hard to undertake and stabilize and recover following his injury, and for the nonce , he will specialise in rest and recovery.
We will do our greatest to assist Seungkwan together with his treatment and recovery, and thus we might also wish to say that for now, he will temporarily halt promotions so as to recover.
Until Seungkwan has fully recovered, SEVENTEEN will promote as 12 members.
We sincerely apologize to the fans for causing concern with the sudden news and that we will do our greatest to form sure Seungkwan will fully recover, so he can greet his fans as soon as possible.
We invite your understanding.
— Pledis Entertainment
