Below is Pledis Entertainment's statement about fromis_9's Lee Chaeyoung:
Hello.
This is PLEDIS Entertainment.
We would like to provide some information on fromis_9 member Lee Chaeyoung's schedule.
On Friday, October 29, Lee Chaeyoung was treated for pain in her left ankle in a nearby hospital.
After examination, medical staff offered the opinion that while her daily activities will not be affected, she had suffered a rupture in the ligament in her left ankle region and should refrain from strenuous movement for the time being.
Following medical advice, our company has decided to minimize Lee Chaeyoung's movements in this week's fromis_9 activities. For the V LIVE scheduled for 9 PM Friday, October 29, she will take part while sitting down; for the "WE ALL ARE ONE 2021 K-POP for Overcoming COVID-19" event at 6 PM Sunday, October 31, she will also be performing while seated. We ask for your understanding.
We will continue to monitor Lee Chaeyoung's recovery as we carefully plan her participation in future activities.
Our company will place our highest priority on artist health and make sure that Lee Chaeyoung is able to focus on treatment and recovery.
Thank you.
