S Coups


K-pop boy band SEVENTEEN's leader S.Coups has suffered a knee injury as reported by the group's agency, PLEDIS Entertainment.

In a statement released by PLEDIS, they shared, “On August 10, S.Coups sustained an injury to his left knee as he was landing while playing a ball game for content filming. He was immediately taken to the hospital where he underwent a comprehensive medical examination including an MRI scan. During the examination, a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) was identified in the left knee.”

“The artist is receiving necessary medical treatment prior to the surgery as recommended by medical staff and will undergo surgery as soon as possible. We will provide updates on the progression of his treatment and rehabilitation schedule at a later time,” they further explained.

With this, S.Coups will solely be focusing on his recovery from surgery and rehabilitation and will be unable to participate in the scheduled activities of SEVENTEEN.

PLEDIS reassured fans though and said, “We would like to extend our deepest apology to his fans for any distress or worry this may have caused. The artist is highly determined to attend all of the group's scheduled activities. However, his participation will be adjusted depending on the circumstances, placing his recovery as the top priority as per recommendation of medical staff.”

“We will do our best to aid in S.Coups's treatment and recovery so that he can return in good health to his fans as quickly as possible,” they end.

As soon as Carats received this news, they have extended their support to S.Coups and are wishing him a speedy recovery.
