ENHYPEN‘s Jay recently sustained knee pain during his tour in Japan. He was seen in pain during previous stops of ENHYPEN FATE PLUS IN JAPAN. After the first day of their Hiroshima stop on June 26, 2024, Belift Lab issued an official statement regarding his injury on June 27. He was scheduled to perform for the second day of the concert that very day. It was announced that he would be sitting out of the sound check, and only participating in the show by sitting on a chair. Jay showed strong will to perform for fans, resulting in this compromise.
“Hello.
This is Belift Lab. This is regarding ENHYPEN Jay’s health condition and his upcoming schedules.
After the first day of shows for ENHYPEN FATE PLUS IN JAPAN Hiroshima, Jay experienced knee pain and was treated and diagnosed by local medics. As a result, they advised him to refrain from strenuous movement including choreography and performances, etc.
Although the artist himself possesses a strong will to participate, following the advice from the medics, we will be minimising his movement during today’s show. He will not participate in the sound check and will perform on a chair without dancing for the show. As for Music Core in Japan, ENHYPEN will perform as 6, without Jay. We ask fans for their understanding.
The company prioritizes the health of the artist and will do our best in his treatment and recovery so that he can meet fans healthily as soon as possible.
Thank you.”

Fans call out Belift Lab for only taking action now.
This rly isn't funny, I need @BELIFTLAB to take this seriously. "Our artists' health is our top priority" when said artist has endured knee pain for a year now–every single leg of the tour that's been going on forever. How many wv notices are u gonna release before u wake tf up?
Jay has been at the mercy of overwork and packed schedules with the boys preparing for the comeback amidst their extended tour, and other promotional schedules. Fans are incredibly concerned for his well-being.
Jay’s knee pain has been going on for a long time right?? With Belift fcked up schedule, it will never heal. They talk abt prioritizing the artists health but can’t even consider giving them a rest. Fck u @BELIFTLAB
