This is not the first time that Lucas was removed from the new merchandise of his group. In mid-October, a photo showing new NCT products was uploaded on Twitter by a Korean fan.
In the image, the names of the NCT members can be seen, except for Lucas. This resulted in fans speculating that SM Entertainment quietly removed the male idol from the group.
This past August, WayV Lucas was embroiled in a scandal wherein various unnamed women who claimed they are his ex-girlfriends stated that the idol gaslight them and took their money. As a result, Lucas and SM Entertainment released statements concerning the rumors.

WayV's Latest Comeback with "Kick Back"
In March this year, WayV returned to the K-pop scene with their third EP, "Kick Back." The EP consists of six tracks including the title song of the same name.
Although Lucas and Winwin took part in recording the songs from the album, they were unable to participate in the promotion as they were undergoing quarantine in China for solo activities.
In South Korea, "Kick Back" became the boy group's first-ever No. 1 album on the Gaon Album Chart. It ultimately earned the band their first certification for selling over 250,000 copies in the country.
