Stray Kids’ Felix Injured In Major Accident.
Stray Kids star Felix recently sustained an injury in a car accident. Due to that, he will be absent from Sunday’s SKZ 5’CLOCK fan meeting. According to Soompi, the accident occurred on Saturday night as Felix was returning from a fan event, resulting in a fracture. JYP Entertainment, the group’s management agency, officially confirmed the news.
The agency’s statement read, “Hello, this is JYP Entertainment. While returning home from his schedule on February 15th (Sat), Stray Kids member Felix was involved in a minor car accident. After the fan meeting, Felix was in a vehicle (Carnival), that was slowly making its way from the Inspire Arena parking lot towards the main lobby, when a shuttle bus, that was moving slowly behind, collided with the left rear side of the vehicle.”
“The accident itself was minor, but the momentary shift in Felix’s weight onto his arm caused him to collide with the armrest inside the vehicle, resulting in a fracture. Immediately after the accident, Felix was quickly taken to the hospital for a thorough examination, where medical professionals advised that he needs adequate rest and proper treatment for the time being,” it added.
“Felix is currently resting and focusing on his recovery. As a result, Felix will unfortunately be unable to attend Stray Kids 5TH FANMEETING “SKZ 5’CLOCK” scheduled for today (February 16th). We kindly ask for all your understanding. We sincerely apologize to fans surprised by this sudden news. Please be assured that the health and recovery of the artist is our top priority, and we will provide all the necessary support. Additionally, we will strengthen our measures to ensure that our artist can travel in a safer environment. Thank you,” concluded the statement.
