MONSTA X’s Wonho, Kihyun, and Hyungwon were revealed to have been involved in a minor car accident.
On October 27, a source spoke with Ilgan Sports and said, “MONSTA X’s Kihyun, Wonho, and Hyungwon were involved in a minor collision while coming to Seoul from Busan last night around 11 p.m. Thankfully there were no serious injuries.”
A source from Starship Entertainship explained, “The accident was a minor collision. The members were startled but thankfully there were no injuries. Although it was a minor collision we plan on going to the hospital right away to check for any side effects if they feel any pain.”
MONSTA X has left for Jeju Island for Mnet’s special Jeju episode. The members plan on receiving a complete medical examination if they are not feeling well after filming.
The seven-member group is currently promoting their latest title track “Fighter.”

smfh at Starship keeping this quiet while sending all of Monsta X to Jeju Island for the M Countdown special this morning. I'm pissed.
Kihyun tweeted as soon as the news broke out, and said not to worry and that they're fine.

Stay awful, Starship.

The mindset of idols not wanting to miss out on promoting leaves me doubtful they'd say anything, and they'll downplay anything and try to push through.
It's just so dangerous.
