Hello. This is Neo Production. We would like to inform you about NCT Riku’s return to activities. Riku, who had temporarily suspended activities due to health reasons, has been working hard to recover his health while getting sufficient rest and stability, and his condition has greatly improved. As such, we have decided to resume activities based on Riku’s will to return to future activities as well as taking into consideration medical professionals’ opinions. The official schedules scheduled for February will be carried out with five members, Sion, Yushi, Jaehee, Ryo, and Sakuya. Riku plans to meet fans through 2025 NCT WISH ASIA TOUR LOG in starting in March and also through the production and activities of the upcoming album to be released in the first half of the year. We would like to thank the fans who have always sent Riku warm support and encouragement, and we will also do our best so that Riku can continue his activities in good health. Thank you.
