S.Coups To Sit Out Most Of SEVENTEEN’s Upcoming Comeback Promotions For Health Recovery

Oct 19, 2023

SEVENTEEN’s agency PLEDIS Entertainment has provided updates on S.Coups’s recovery process and upcoming scheduled activities.

In August, SEVENTEEN’s S.Coups sustained an injury to his left knee while landing during a ball game for content shooting.

On October 19, PLEDIS Entertainment announced that due to S.Coups’s ongoing recovery and the vulnerability of the affected area, the SEVENTEEN’s leader will not be able to take part in most of the group’s upcoming promotional activities for their 11th mini album “SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN” in order to prioritize his continued recovery and rehabilitation.

Read the full announcement below:

"Hello.
This is PLEDIS Entertainment.

We would like to provide you with some information regarding SEVENTEEN member S.Coups’s promotional activities for the group’s 11th Mini Album.

S.Coups sustained a tear in his left anterior cruciate ligament and underwent anterior cruciate ligament and anterolateral ligament reconstruction surgery. He is currently receiving post-surgery care and is focusing on his recovery.

It has been almost two months since he underwent this surgery, and he is currently recovering. However, the affected area is still in a vulnerable state. Rehabilitation treatment is crucial at this stage, and he has received medical advice that it would be best to avoid any physically taxing activities for the time being.

The artist was deeply committed to participating in the pre-scheduled activities. However, we believed that it was in his best interest to prioritize his recovery and rehabilitation above all else at this time. Therefore, it will be difficult for S.Coups to participate in most of his official activities including SEVENTEEN’s promotional activities for their 11th Mini album SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN. Thank you very much for your kind understanding.

We will do our very best to support S.Coups so that he can meet his fans as his healthiest self again.

Thank you."

Following the announcement, S.Coups personally took to Weverse to share, “I wanted to participate in activities as much as I could, but I’ll take a break for a while to focus on rehabilitation so I can see you all in the long term. You don’t like it when I apologize, so rather than feeling sorry, I’ll strengthen my resolve and work harder on my recovery to show you a healthier me as soon as possible.”
