WINNER's Mino has sustained an injury to his neck. Will the K-pop idol's injury affect the group's promotions?
"Mino's injury is not very serious so the comeback schedule will not be affected," said YG Entertainment. According to Koreaboo, this is in response to the fans who expressed their worries about his neck injury affecting WINNER's comeback.
The K-pop idol was hospitalized recently after complaining of the pain on his neck. Mino was in the hospital for a while and has been receiving physical therapy.
According to YG Entertainment's statement, it has also been revealed that Mino is currently working with his WINNER brothers for their upcoming comeback. However, the K-pop idol is wearing a neck brace until he is fully recovered, as per instructions from the doctors.
