Lucas, a member of the group NCT and WayV, leaves after 2 years of hiatus due to controversy over his private life.
On the 10th, the agency SM Entertainment announced through an official statement, “As a result of careful discussion between Lucas and the company, Lucas has decided to leave NCT and WayV and continue his individual activities.”
He added, “It was a decision made after judging that it was a choice for both the members and the fans, so we ask for the understanding of the fans who supported Lucas as a member of NCT and WayV.”
In 2021, Lucas was embroiled in a privacy controversy over the revelations of Mr. A, who claimed to be his ex-girlfriend. Ms. A posted on social media that she was gaslighted while dating her Lucas for years, and even after they broke up with Lucas, she told him to run errands big and small and to pay for all her expenses, and she despised him, calling him a flower snake.
Even after that, Chinese B, who claims to be another girlfriend of Lucas, posted on social media, “Lucas’ kindness and love for fans are just concepts. In fact, fans thought he was his concubine and used their love freely.” It was raised and a wave arose.
At the time, Lucas apologized, saying, “I sincerely apologize to those who have been hurt by my wrong actions,” and “I will stop all scheduled activities and take time to reflect.”
Meanwhile, Lucas is from Hong Kong and debuted as a group NCT under SM Entertainment in 2018 and worked with WayV and SuperM.
