When WayV was announced as a subunit of NCT, the group was made up of 7 members.
In 2021, member Lucas was involved in a gaslighting and cheating scandal that resulted first in him being placed on an indefinite hiatus. As part of multiple changes to NCT in 2023, it was announced that Lucas would leave the group and promote as a solo artist.
WayV continued promoting as six, releasing On My Youth following the official changes.
In March 2023, it was announced that Lucas would make his solo debut on April 1. The announcement was met with mixed reactions as netizens discussed the idol’s return.

Recently, during a video call with WayV YangYang, a fan brought up Lucas’s upcoming release, though in a way unexpected.
While speaking with YangYang, a fan held up a sign that said, “Don’t film a dance challenge with HXX.” HXX stands for Huang Xuxi, the Mandarin spelling of Lucas’ name.
Fan: Can you see it?
Caption: You’re sweating buckets right, oppa?
Commenters reacted favorably, but based on YangYang’s somewhat awkward reaction, some took it as a sign that it may happen and asked for hate not to be directed at the WayV member.
- “If it’s a request from the company, then there’s nothing he could do. Sigh. If it does happen then I hope everyone would go easy on this pitiful boy.”
- “It’s better to have said it than not (I think). You guys say they know already, but it’s been a long time since we’ve interacted with them so we don’t know if they feel the same way as the fans about this. This is OP’s video call fansign, so you can’t tell OP they can’t mention this and that.”
- “Hahahahahaha you two’s minds are in sync, silence + smile…..”
- “Can other people also tell all of the other members about this during a fansign?”
- “If they really did a dance challenge together, please don’t scold him. I’m begging you all.”
