Choi Minhwan will not be performing with FT ISLAND in the near future after being involved in a controversy revealed by his ex-wife, Yulhee. Therefore, he will be absent from some of his band's schedules in the future.
Through her YouTube video, Yulhee revealed one of the reasons she divorced Minhwan was because her husband often went to karaoke rooms and hired prostitutes. The former LABOUM member even uploaded a voice recording of Minhwan's transaction with a karaoke staff.
After the video went viral, FT ISLAND's agency, FNC Entertainment stated that Minhwan would be withdrawing from media activities including appearing on Return of Superman. However, he did perform with FT ISLAND at their solo concert in Taiwan on October 26, 2024.
He participated by playing from backstage and did not appear in front of the public. Because of this, the public is questioning the agency's plans for Minhwan's appearance. FT ISLAND will perform at the 2024 Grand Mint Festival which will be held on November 2, 2024.
Through its new statement, the agency reiterated that the two FT ISLAND members are still confirmed to appear while Minhwan will be absent from the stage. “Choi Minhwan’s drum position will be filled by another musician while the other FT ISLAND members plan to perform as scheduled based on the prepared setlist without any issues,” FNC Entertainment said.
“We apologize to the Grand Mint Festival and the fans and audiences who felt confused. We ask for your understanding,” they continued. Minhwan has not responded to Yulhee's statement about him until now.
