TWICE's Dahyun To Take Hiatus From "THIS IS FOR" Tour Due To Injury

TWICE's Dahyun To Take Hiatus From "THIS IS FOR" Tour Due To Injury

Dahyun will be unable to participate in upcoming concert stops for TWICE’s world tour “THIS IS FOR” after sustaining an ankle injury. On February 11, JYP Entertainment issued an official statement announcing that Dahyun will be unable to participate in the North America tour dates scheduled from February 13 through March 7. Hi, this is JYP Entertainment. We would like to share an update regarding TWICE member Dahyun and her upcoming schedule. During the early stages of the North America tour, Dahyun experienced discomfort in her ankle and continued receiving treatment while in the United States. After returning to Korea, she underwent further medical examinations and was diagnosed with a fracture. Based on medical advice, she has been advised to undergo continued treatment and take sufficient rest. Throughout the tour, Dahyun had been eagerly looking forward to meeting fans and, even after the injury, did her best to remain on stage, including performing while seated. However, considering the physical demands of the performances, which involve ongoing walking, jumping, and choreography that place significant strain on the injured area, continuing to perform could interfere with her recovery. After careful discussion among the artist, the company and medical professionals, and with her health as our top priority, it has been decided that she will not participate in the North America tour dates scheduled from February 13 through March 7. For the time being, Dahyun will focus on her treatment and recovery and looks forward to returning to fans in good health. Her participation in future schedules will be decided after closely monitoring her recovery and in consultation with DAHYUN and medical professionals. We sincerely apologize to fans who may have been surprised by this news and ask for your kind understanding, as this decision was made to prioritize Dahyun’s recovery. Thank you always for your continued love and warm support. JYP Entertainment TWICE is currently on Part 2 of their “THIS IS FOR” world tour. Wishing Dahyun a speedy and full recovery!

BAE173's Hangyul Parts Ways With Agency Of 10 Years

BAE173’s Hangyul is leaving his longtime agency PocketDol Studio. On February 11, BAE173’s agency PocketDol Studio released an official statement saying, “Our exclusive contract with Hangyul will end on February 28. It was a precious journey together, as we spent a long period of about 10 years side by side and watched each other grow. We sincerely thank Hangyul for quietly giving his passion and doing his best all this time. Although our exclusive contract is coming to an end, we will wholeheartedly support Hangyul’s new activities and challenges moving forward.” CEO Kim Kwang Soo remarked, “Hangyul is a friend who has always stood firmly by my side—whether the company was doing well or not, whether good things happened or sad things occurred. To me, he has been a precious person who, at different times, became a companion, a friend, and a younger brother. I sincerely thank him and feel deeply grateful that he stayed with us for such a long time.” He also said, “I’ve watched many artists over the past 41 years, but it’s not easy to find someone like Hangyul, who quietly holds his place and shows true sincerity. He is a particularly dear friend—so I will sincerely congratulate him, bless him, and cheer him on as he takes a new path.” Hangyul has been with the agency for about 10 years, dating back to his trainee days. After making his first debut in 2017 with the group IM, he became known to the public through KBS2’s idol audition show “The Unit” and was selected as a final member on Mnet’s “Produce X 101,” promoting with the group X1. He later carried out pre-debut activities as H&D, a unit made up of Hangyul and Nam Dohyon, and then officially debuted as a member of BAE173 on November 19, 2020. Wishing Hangyul all the best in his new chapter!
