This is PLEDIS Entertainment.
We would like to update you on the progression of the medical treatment for SEVENTEEN member S.COUPS. On August 10, S.COUPS sustained a tear to his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the left knee during a content shoot. After receiving necessary pre-surgery medical treatment as recommended by the medical staff, he underwent surgery to restore his ACL and anterolateral ligament on Monday, 21st.
The surgery was a success, and S.COUPS was discharged from the hospital on Thursday morning, the 24th, and has been resting since.
S.COUPS will be focusing solely on recovery and rehabilitation for the foreseeable future per recommendation from the medical team. To expedite his recovery, S.COUPS will be wearing a leg brace and use crutches and a wheelchair. Once the surgical site is healed, he will undergo physical therapy so that he can return in full health to his fans.
Once the medical team confirms the stable recovery of the surgical area, S.COUPS plans to participate in the second-half schedule with flexibility and within reasonable limits. We ask for your kind understanding.
We will do our best to support S.COUPS in recovering his health, placing his recovery as the top most priority.
Thank you.
