Hyunjae, a member of The Boyz, sustains an ankle injury.
After a successful comeback with their 10th mini-album, "a;effect," K-pop boy band The Boyz are set to embark on their fourth international tour, "The Blaze." However, one of the band members, Hyunjae, is currently recovering from a partial ankle ligament tear he sustained during a live content session.
Despite the injury, Hyunjae will join his bandmates for their scheduled appearance on a television music chart show today. The performance will be the boy band's first promoting the main track off "a;effect," titled "Stylish." Hyunjae will need to remain seated during the show to avoid putting strain on his injured ankle.
The Boyz's fourth international tour, which starts on Aug. 8 at Seoul’s KSPO Dome, will consist of a three-day show. The agency, One Hundred, has emphasized prioritizing Hyunjae's health and recovery, promising to adjust future activities accordingly and to ensure a speedy rehabilitation.
The tour comes just days after The Boyz reorganized into a nine-member act following Ju Haknyeon's scandal-related removal. The injury is a setback for the band, but they remain optimistic about the tour's success. The agency has not announced any cancellations or modifications to the tour yet.
One Hundred has apologized to fans for the injury and indicated that Hyunjae’s participation will be carefully managed based on his recovery progress to minimize impact on the band's performances and tour activities. The agency has also confirmed that Hyunjae performed his comeback stage seated to avoid putting strain on his injured ankle.
The Boyz dropped their 10th EP on Monday, and the tour is expected to be a celebration of their latest music and success. The band's dedicated fans, known as the iGOT7, are eagerly awaiting the start of the tour and are supporting Hyunjae in his recovery.
In conclusion, The Boyz's fourth international tour, "The Blaze," is set to kick off despite an injury to Hyunjae. The band remains optimistic about the tour's success and is committed to prioritizing Hyunjae's health and recovery. Fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the tour and are supporting Hyunjae in his recovery.
Although the concert's preparations are in full swing, Hyunjae will take part in the entertainment segment sitting down due to his sports-related injury. The Boyz's tour performances will include a mix of both their recently released music and popular sports-themed choreographies.
