Luhan Unable to Join EXO for Thailand Concert Stop Due to Exhaustion

[coldhives.livejournal.com]

EXO’s Luhan updated fans today and confirmed that he will not be joining the rest of their group for their upcoming concert in Bangkok, Thailand.

On one of his updates on Weibo today, Luhan reveals that, “I apologise to our fans in Thailand and everywhere else. Due to excessive exhaustion over a long period of time, I have been suffering from recurring headaches, sleeping problems and often feel dizzy. I was advised by my doctor to rest and take time off. I am really, really sorry as I won’t be able attend the concert in Thailand. I originally thought I could continue and finish our schedules and show our best performances, however, it seems unlikely. I hope I improve soon so I will be able to participate in our concert in Beijing. I hope everyone doesn’t worry. :(“

EXO is currently pushing through with their “Lost Planet Tour” which was launched in South Korea last May 23rd and 24th. They are set to be in Bangkok, Thailand on September 13th and 14th then head on to Beijing, China on September 20th and 21st.

Meanwhile, fans have been trending #getwellsoonluhan on Twitter to show their support.

I'm glad he's getting rest.the other boys should be too the, lately they've looked like a troupe of zombies.those.pictures of Tao at the airport two weeks ago were horrifying.It's sad to see them like this...doesn't feel like the group I started stanning for

mte, a shadow of themselves. i can almost build up resentment towards kris for not taking anyone else with him when he quit

[pepper.livejournal.com]

What. An SM idol being overworked to exhaustion? Colour me shocked.

Their schedule is so fucked up. Considering Luhan's fear of heights and that he takes sleeping pills for airplane travel, with this tour, it's been insane. It was already insane before, going back and forth between Soul and Beijing, Singapore, Taipei but this... I wouldn't be surprised that he's developed an addiction and can't sleep without medication even during down-time.

Their whole tour is too fucking long. It's not that they hurt their wrist and it pains to play but that they injured something and performed despite it and went to other concert to perform and another...

[hyemint.livejournal.com]

tbh...the stuff about sleeping pills was some speculative tabloid bs. he's never mentioned it so how could anyone possibly know?

[nekokonneko.livejournal.com]

poor kid, sm is running them ragged

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

They looked dead at recent airports so not surprised. Poor kid, get better soon.

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

I'm glad he's resting but how jacked up must he have been for SM to actually listen to the Doctor...stop running these kids ragged...they all look horribly tired

[koushiba.livejournal.com]

I hope he gets the rest he needs ;;

[hyemint.livejournal.com]

okay but how serious is it really bc sm is not normally this lenient?

ughhhhh he's my favorite i can't help but to think the worst like he's dying or something omfg self stop worrying pls

[missingmisnomer.livejournal.com]

their schedule is insane even for kpop. i've never seen ppl work as hard as they have in 2013/14 and its not inspiring or commendable, its just reckless and selfish of their company to grind them down like this. i hope Luhan takes as much time as he needs.

i wish they'd push back their upcoming comeback to 2015 but we all know that's not gonna happen.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

You're talking about some fans who used to boast about how many sasaengs they had.

[dokyungsoo.livejournal.com]

it's obvious that the poor boys are overworked, and i swear luhan has never looked this tired ever. tbh idek how some of them still manage to look fresh-faced at airports (e.g. suho).

does anyone know how well the thai fans are taking to this? luhan seems to be popular in every country.

[yehetdatsohorat.livejournal.com]

This!!!! 1!!!!!!!!!
Most of the time I see Suho he looks good he must be bathing in the blood of virgins or something
Because the schedule that they have is crazy.

&&&
From what I've seen the fans are taking it OK they mostly just want him to get better and be healthy.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

Poor kid. I hope he gets the rest he needs.

[sub-divided.livejournal.com]

I don't normally do this but... #krisimpact

I'm happy to see SM not willing to risk losing another member of EXO to mismanagement. Maybe next time they'll built enough time for rest into the schedule in the first place.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Luimpact too tbh.SM can't risk losing him, he's their golden ticket to China rn

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

Those symptoms he mentioned just broke my heart. Stop apologizing. Yes idols are young, but it doesn't mean they're superhuman. I hope he gets much needed rest. Blind naïveté hopes they all do.

[bunica1990.livejournal.com]

Poor kid. I hope he gets as much rest as he can.

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

his condition must be really bad if SM is letting him take a break. Or they're tip toeing around the Chinese members. Either way I'm glad he can take a quick breather

[pekojan.livejournal.com]

They already lose Kris. They would do everything to keep Lu.

[pekojan.livejournal.com]

The fact that both Kris and Luhan must visit hospital on their own in their home country during vacation time, really SM?

RUN BABY RUN!

i'm still mad about sm putting luhan in the sky for their performance at the seoul music awards. something as small as that, shows me they put no consideration into his psychological health. he needs to rest his body AND mind. if his fear is adding anything to his exhaustion, i really hope sm will start accommodating him (ie: the other day he took one flight while the rest took two). they had so many china dates and instead of staying in china, they just flew back and forth T______T

it worries me though because he didn't go to a doctor until he got to beijing for their holiday break. who knows if he would have been allowed this rest time if he hadn't flown home.

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

he has a phobia of heights?? poor bb :(

[agentgoodnight.livejournal.com]

Shit, I hope he gets the rest and medical attention he needs. This is ridiculous , I'm glad Kris got out what he did. Good for him.

It makes me really sad to think that for the decade or so they'll be in the limelight/entertaining people, it'll be under these conditions. I'm sure it's what they want, but jeez, I can't even picture what their health will be like past 30.

[bebita19.livejournal.com]

Health bby! Don't apologize for getting the rest you deserve.

[angela-derp-otp.livejournal.com]

i'm glad for luhan and i'm bitter as fuck to SME because they never treated my faves like that before. Like they would literally only miss concerts when they couldn't stand on their feet.

At least SME is doing something right with some of their artists. Stay healthy Lu.

[xkat-attackx.livejournal.com]

Don't apologize Luhan! Your health is what is most important and if some fans can't understand that then fuck them tbh. Hope this isn't too serious because this is suspiciously generous of SM.

[weerainbow.livejournal.com]

It makes me feel extremely sad to see him apologising for not being able to cope with being run into the ground and for getting sick with recurring symptoms :((( It's ridiculous. It should never get to this point ;__;
