## What Happened?

After a medical evaluation, they were advised to get plenty of rest. The agency said the decision was made with the artists’ health as the top priority.

## The Silver Lining for Fans

Despite the setbacks, the two members will still join KickFlip’s **Show Champion** pre-recording and live performance on October 14. They will also join the **M Countdown** pre-recording on October 15. That means fans can still catch the full group on the music-show stages this week.

Kyehoon will miss his MC duties on *M Countdown* this week. The agency said it will share any further schedule changes as they come up.

## Why Rest Matters During a Comeback?

Comeback season often means:

- **Back-to-back schedules:** music shows, radio visits, variety appearances and fan events.
- **Intense practice:** repeated live performances and long rehearsals.
- **Little downtime:** even small illnesses can snowball without proper rest.

Agencies are increasingly putting health first, and that is a good sign for the industry. A short break now can protect the group’s momentum later.

## How Fans Can Support?

- Stay patient and respect the agency’s updates.
- Avoid spreading unverified rumours.
- Send kind messages and keep streaming the comeback.
