Kevin of THE BOYZ is officially returning to activities after a period of rest and recovery, rejoining fans and members with renewed health and energy as the group prepares for its January overseas schedule.
On January 6, THE BOYZ’s agency ONE HUNDRED released an official statement confirming that Kevin’s condition has significantly improved following sufficient rest and stability. “After taking time to rest and focus on recovery, Kevin’s condition has improved, and he will resume activities starting this January,” the agency stated.
Official Return Stage Set for Shanghai
Kevin’s first official appearance back with the group will take place at ‘THE BOYZ China Fan Meeting in Shanghai,’ scheduled for January 24 and 25 (local time). The event will mark his formal return to group activities and his first opportunity to meet fans since temporarily halting promotions late last year.
The Shanghai fan meeting is expected to carry added emotional weight, as fans welcome Kevin back after months of waiting, and as THE BOYZ resumes full member activities overseas.
Kevin Shares Message of Gratitude
Through his agency, Kevin personally addressed fans with a heartfelt message.
“Thank you to everyone who continues to support THE BOYZ,” he said. “I spent the end of the year resting and recharging with my family, and I’m now returning with renewed energy.” He added, “Happy New Year. I hope to meet fans more often this year and show a brighter, healthier version of myself.” His words were met with warm responses online, as fans expressed relief and excitement at his recovery and upcoming return.
A Pause Focused on Health
Kevin temporarily suspended activities in November 2025 due to health and psychological condition concerns. At the time, the agency emphasized that the decision was made to prioritize the artist’s well being above all else. Since then, Kevin has focused fully on recovery, avoiding public schedules until his condition stabilized.
Industry observers note that the transparent communication surrounding Kevin’s hiatus and return reflects a growing emphasis within K-pop on long term artist health rather than short-term activity.
A Key Vocal and On-Air Presence
Kevin is known as one of THE BOYZ’s main vocalists, recognized for his warm, distinctive tone, stable live singing, and strong musicianship including advanced instrumental skills. Beyond music, he has also expanded his presence as an MC, hosting ‘LISTEN PAGE 2,’ where he earned praise for his thoughtful communication style and considerate hosting approach. His versatility has positioned him as a member who bridges performance and presentation, contributing to the group’s identity both on and off the stage.
Looking Ahead
THE BOYZ wrapped up 2025 with steady global achievements across albums and concerts, strengthening their international presence. With Kevin officially rejoining the lineup, the group is expected to regain further momentum as it enters 2026 with a complete team.
