SEVENTEEN's Hoshi has experienced a complete tear of his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during rehearsals for a military performance. The South Korean idol informed his fans via a fan communication platform on Saturday that he injured his knee while practicing with the Army performance team. After consulting a medical professional, the diagnosis confirmed the complete rupture of his ACL.
Hoshi informed his supporters that he will undergo surgery and require time to recover from the injury. Consequently, he will be unable to join the military's taekwondo demonstration team and participate in the Ground Forces Festival. Hoshi expressed his disappointment at missing these performances, which he had been eagerly anticipating.
He also empathized with CARATs, SEVENTEEN's fanbase, who had been eagerly awaiting their performances. The idol appealed to his fans to continue supporting both the taekwondo demonstration team and the Army performance team, which comprises fellow SEVENTEEN member Woozi.
