It is with utmost regret that we are sharing some updates regarding JONGHO’s health to the fans who have unconditionally supported ATEEZ.
JONGHO was diagnosed with a “meniscus rupture” after his last ankle injury, but because of his strong will to be on stage, he focused on conservative treatment and recovery, including injections that helped relieve pain and boost regenerative qualities.
However, after today’s event, JONGHO experienced extreme pain, so we have come to the decision of immediately suspending his upcoming schedules for August 20(local time) and having him return to Korea to conduct a thorough examination and treatment by experts.
As artist health is a top priority, we ask for your kind understanding. Updates and additional information will be given following the examination results. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the sudden news, and we will do our best to ensure JONGHO’s speedy recovery.
Get well soon Jongho!
