SM Entertainment has updated fans on NCT’s Renjun’s health and his participation in NCT DREAM’s upcoming schedule.
Back in April, Renjun temporarily halted all activities and went on a hiatus after experiencing a “worsening of his health and symptoms of anxiety.”
On August 9, SM Entertainment announced that because Renjun’s health had “improved greatly,” he would be returning to participate in NCT DREAM’s upcoming U.S. single “Rains in Heaven,” which is due out later this month.
The agency also noted that fans will be able to see Renjun in “content related to the single,” which will be released on August 23.
However, because his doctor has advised that “it is still too early for Renjun to handle a long tour schedule,” Renjun will still be sitting out the upcoming U.S. leg of NCT DREAM’s “THE DREAM SHOW 3 : DREAM( )SCAPE” world tour.
SM Entertainment’s full statement is as follows:
