TWS Jihoon Activity Suspension: Member to Miss 2nd Anniversary and Concerts
TWS member Jihoon will temporarily suspend activities following his father's passing. He is set to miss the 2nd anniversary live and upcoming concerts in Macau and Kaohsiung.
TWS's second-anniversary celebration will feel a little emptier this year. Jihoon, a member of the rising K-pop group TWS, is taking a step back from upcoming activities following the passing of his father earlier this month. PLEDIS Entertainment confirmed the news on January 21, 2026, stating that he'll be absent from major group schedules to focus on mourning and recovery.
The Reason Behind TWS Jihoon Activity Suspension
The hiatus comes after Jihoon's father sadly passed away due to an illness. The idol already missed TWS’s fan signing events in Beijing this past weekend. According to his agency, the decision was made to prioritize Jihoon’s mental well-being during this difficult time, allowing him to stay with his family.
Impacted Schedule: Macau and Kaohsiung Concerts
Fans will see a 5-member lineup for the group's 2nd Anniversary Live. Additionally, Jihoon won't be joining the upcoming concerts in Macau and Kaohsiung. While the group has seen massive success since their 2024 debut, the agency emphasized that a full recovery is the top priority before he returns to the spotlight.
