Boy group WINNER will hold a concert with member Song Min Ho absent.
Under YG Entertainment, WINNER is expected to have a concert in July, marking their return to the stage after approximately 3 years and 3 months. YG Entertainment mentioned that despite having secured the venue and made preparations, there were deliberations on whether to proceed with the concert. They later stated, ‘The final decision to go ahead as scheduled was made to respond to the members’ and fans’ desire to meet.’
The concert will feature three members, Kang Seung Yoon, Kim Jin Woo, and Lee Seung Hoon, with Song Min Ho not participating. YG Entertainment expressed, ‘This was not an easy decision, so we earnestly ask fans to provide warm support and encouragement.’
On the other hand, WINNER member Song Min Ho has been serving as a public service worker since March 2023 and completed his 1 year and 9 months of service on December 23 last year. However, about a week before his discharge, he was embroiled in controversy for multiple absences due to sick leave, annual leave, and other reasons during his service.
