Stray Kids’ Seungmin will not be participating in some of the group’s upcoming comeback promotions.
On August 7 KST, JYP Entertainment announced that Seungmin would be sitting out certain promotions for Stray Kids’ upcoming mini album “THIS & THAT,” which is due out later today, due to his rehabilitation treatment.
Although Seungmin will be participating in the group’s pre-recordings for the August 7 episode of “Music Bank” and the August 8 episode of “Music Core,” along with their “Music Core” mini fan meeting, he will not be attending the live broadcasts for either music show. Seungmin will also be sitting out the Stationhead listening parties on both days, as well as the Melon Music Wave event on August 7.
