In a sudden turn of events, TWICE’s Chaeyoung is delaying her departure for the U.S. leg of the group’s highly anticipated world tour. The talented star requires urgent medical attention following an unexpected health issue.
JYP Entertainment’s Official Update
According to JYP Entertainment, Chaeyoung suffered a sudden lower back injury on the very morning of her scheduled departure to the United States. Fans were understandably concerned by the last-minute change.
She is currently remaining in South Korea to undergo thorough medical examinations and receive the necessary treatment. Her health and safe recovery are the top priorities for both the agency and the group.

Impact on Upcoming Performances
JYP Entertainment issued a heartfelt apology to ONCE for the unfortunate news. The agency also shared a realistic update regarding Chaeyoung’s future stages.

Even upon her successful return to the tour, some aspects of her dynamic choreography and performance may be limited to protect her back. ONCE is known for being incredibly supportive, and fans are already prioritizing the artist’s well-being over full routines.

Dahyun’s Ongoing Absence
Unfortunately, Chaeyoung isn’t the only member currently focusing on her health. Fellow TWICE member Dahyun also remains absent from the ongoing tour schedule.

Dahyun sustained an ankle fracture earlier and is still in the process of recovering. The group and the fans are undoubtedly feeling the absence of these two vibrant stars on stage.

Historic Tour Milestones Ahead
Despite these recent medical setbacks, TWICE’s monumental “THIS IS FOR” world tour continues to make global waves. This massive international trek spans an impressive 43 cities worldwide.

Next month, the girl group will achieve an incredible milestone by becoming the first overseas artist to hold a solo concert at Japan’s prestigious National Stadium in Tokyo. It is a historic moment for K-pop and a massive testament to TWICE’s enduring global legacy.
Let’s send our warmest wishes for a speedy and full recovery to both Chaeyoung and Dahyun! ONCE, please share your messages of support for the girls in the comments below.
