TXT's Soobin temporarily halts activities due to health concerns

Tomorrow X Together member Choi Soobin has temporarily halted his activities due to health concerns.

The announcement came from BIGHIT MUSIC, the group's agency, which expressed concern for the well-being of the 23-year-old K-pop idol following the latter's recent hospital visit and medical advice after he exhibited signs of being unwell.

"Soobin recently exhibited signs of being unwell and visited the hospital for medical attention. The medical staff have advised that he would need sufficient time to rest and recover," the agency said in a statement obtained by Korean entertainment website Soompi.

It continued: "We have prioritized Soobin’s recovery and have had discussions regarding future activities with all members. Soobin himself is determined to continue with his activities, however, we felt that it would be better for him to focus on improving his health for the time being as recommended by the medical staff."

Because of this, Soobin will not be able to attend several events, including the 2024 MAMA Awards in Japan, "ACT: PROMISE" Encore in Japan, the Shanghai fan signing event, and other end-of-year ceremonies and activities.

"We would like to apologize to our fans and ask for your generous understanding."

According to the agency, Soobin plans to take necessary rest and maintain his daily life to return to fans in his healthiest self again.

"The company will do our very best to support Soobin for him to recover and meet fans in good health."

Soobin was introduced as the second member of TXT in 2019 and has led the group since then.

TXT, which also consists of Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Huening Kai, and Taehyun, debuted in March of the same year with their first mini album, The Dream Chapter: STAR.

The group is also known for its hit songs, including Back For More, Chasing That Feeling, Sugar Rush Ride, and Deja Vu, among others.
