Good news for K-pop fans following 8TURN — member Kyungmin is officially cleared to resume group activities after months away recovering from a serious health issue. Here’s a full breakdown of his hiatus, recovery, and what his return means for the group’s upcoming schedule.
What Led to Kyungmin’s Hiatus
Back in April, Kyungmin stepped away from 8TURN’s activities after experiencing stomach-related symptoms that turned out to be more serious than initially expected. He was later diagnosed with complex health issues stemming from a gastric ulcer, prompting his agency, MNH Entertainment, to pull him from scheduled promotions so he could focus fully on treatment and recovery.
8TURN: Timeline of Kyungmin’s Health Journey
| Date | Development |
|---|---|
| April 2026 | Kyungmin halts activities due to stomach-related symptoms |
| Following Weeks | Diagnosed with complex health issues linked to a gastric ulcer |
| Recovery Period | Undergoes treatment with consistent rest and medical care |
| September 9, 2026 | MNH Entertainment confirms his return to group activities |
| Upcoming | Set to join the 8TURN World Tour [8TURN TRACE] |
The Announcement from MNH Entertainment
On September 9, MNH Entertainment confirmed that Kyungmin has made steady progress in his recovery and will now resume activities, including participation in the group’s upcoming world tour, 8TURN TRACE. The agency thanked fans for the support shown toward Kyungmin during his time away, noting that his condition has continued to improve through treatment and sufficient rest.
Importantly, the agency also made clear that Kyungmin’s return doesn’t mean the situation is fully behind him. MNH Entertainment stated it will continue monitoring his condition in line with medical advice, as he’ll still require regular medical attention going forward. The priority, according to the agency, remains ensuring his participation stays safe and sustainable rather than rushing him back at full intensity.
What This Means for 8TURN
With Kyungmin rejoining the lineup, 8TURN will be resuming activities as a complete group, which fans have been anticipating since his hiatus began. His inclusion in the 8TURN World Tour [8TURN TRACE] suggests the group is moving forward with its full touring plans intact, a reassuring sign for supporters who’ve been closely following updates on his health.
