SHINee’s Onew Reassures Fans With Sweet Message After Announcing Temporary Hiatus

Jun 9, 2023

SHINee’s Onew has personally reassured fans after the announcement of his temporary hiatus.

On June 9, SM Entertainment announced that Onew would sit out SHINee’s upcoming concerts and album activities for health reasons.

Shortly after the announcement, Onew took to his personal Instagram account to share the following reassuring message to fans:

Hello. This is Onew! I just thought some people may have been surprised and thought it was right I say something so I’ve come to write this. The point is! I will come back after recovering well!

I apologize for worrying many people and would be grateful if you thought of this as a time to momentarily take a breather for the sake of SHINee, who I will be with in the future! Given the timing, I thought a lot but as I was not recovering, I believe there was a misunderstanding or error. But I’ve made this decision in order to properly protect what I want to protect, and because the future is more important. Anyway, please be happy and healthy! In order for us to meaningfully spend happy days and bits and pieces of life together, I will think and return in good health. I’m sorry for worrying you!

SHINee is set to hold their three-night concert “SHINee WORLD VI [PERFECT ILLUMINATION]” at Seoul’s KSPO Dome on June 23, 24, and 25. After dropping their pre-release track “The Feeling” on June 10, SHINee will return with their eighth full-length album “HARD” on June 26.

Get well soon Onew!
