What JYP Entertainment Said
On March 25, JYP Entertainment shared a new statement confirming that “after closely monitoring her condition and carefully reviewing her ability to participate in scheduled performances,” they had “determined that it would be difficult for her to proceed at this time.”
As a result, Dahyun will not be participating in TWICE’s upcoming performances and will focus on her recovery, rejoining “once she has sufficiently recovered and is able to perform safely.” The Hollywood Reporter
The agency also apologised sincerely to fans who have been looking forward to her performances — a sentiment that clearly resonated with the ONCE community worldwide.
How We Got Here — The Full Injury Timeline
Back in February 2026, JYP Entertainment first announced that Dahyun would be sitting out part of the North American leg of TWICE’s ongoing THIS IS FOR world tour. About a month later, the agency added that Dahyun would also be absent from the group’s Taipei concerts in March because she had not yet made a full recovery. The Hollywood Reporter
This latest announcement marks the third consecutive update confirming her absence — and while it’s heartbreaking for fans, it’s the right call. Artists pushing through injury only risks making things worse and extends recovery time significantly.
TWICE is one of the best-selling K-pop girl groups of all time, and Dahyun is a beloved member known for her energy, charisma, and iconic stage presence — all the more reason to let her rest and come back at 100%.

A Message to ONCEs
It’s never easy watching your favourite artist miss out on performances they love just as much as you love watching them. But health always comes first — and the best thing fans can do right now is send Dahyun good wishes and trust that she’ll be back on that stage soon, better than ever.
