iKON Fans are dead worried as of late especially the group's Japanese faithfuls as Chanwoo injured his ankle that awkwardly stretched his tendons. The mishap happened while filming the aforementioned music video that is part of their comeback stint.
In a press statement released by their talent agency YG Entertainment, Chanwoo's tendons were stretched after injuring his ankle. Nevertheless, maknae insisted on carrying on with their routine as he mentioned that he can still do the shoot. YG then prevented him in doing so as his health is their utmost concern during that time, according to Koreaboo.
As a sigh of relief, the doctors who attended to the iKON member stated that the injury was nothing serious and his Japanese fans will be elated to the news that the three-day Yokohama Arena tour will push through with him around.
